Attn Friend.
The inspiration to contact you is simply divine providence, I am making this proposition because I have to seek the partnership of a resource person to help me realize this project. I am DR JURGEN GERSTNER Head of Private Wealth Management Deutsche Bank AG London Winchester House 1 Great Winchester Street London EC2N 2DB LONDON UNITED KINGDOM. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. In january 2003 I was attending a business investment conference In Switzerland and I got introduced to a reknowned business man Mr Bassam Qubba a top Iraqi Foreign Ministry Director He engaged my services as an investment banker Deutsche Bank AG London and my primary assignment was to spearhead his investment forays in the United Kingdom due to the war in his country.
Three months later I invited him to London and under my professional guidance and based on my advice he made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for 24 calendar months valued at GBP £20,320,000.00(Twenty million three hundred and twenty thousand Great British Pounds Sterling in my branch due to the problem in his country. Upon maturity in 2004, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, I sent a reminder and finally we discovered from the embassy here in london that Mr Bassam Qubbaa on the 12th June 2004 aged 60, was assassinated on his way to work in Baghdad's Al-Adhamiya district. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made further investigation into the account and discovered that Mr Bassam Qubbaa did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.
This sum GBP £20,320,000.00(Twenty million three hundred and twenty thousand Great British Pounds Sterling has been floating as unclaimed since 2003 in my bank as all efforts to get his relatives have hit the stones . Meanwhile he was doing this cladenstingly by virture of his position as a public servant.
According to the British law at the expiration of 4 (four) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the British Government if nobody applies to claim the fund and the four years will elapse by the end of 2007.
Consequently,my proposal is that i want to seek your consent as a foreigner to present you to stand in as the next of kin to late Bassam Qubba so that the bank will transfer the money to your designated account. All documents and proves to enable you get this fund will be carefully worked out.
I have secured from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries, and more so I am assuring you that the business is risk free involvement. Your share stays while the rest be for me and for investment purpose as I will leave London by the end of the year. The sharing of the funds will be based according to agreement within you and I.
As soon as i receive an acknowledgement of receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business proposal, I will furnish you with the necessary steps to follow and disbursement ratio to suit both parties without any conflict. If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust i have bestowed in you. I think its also necessary you know more about Mr Bassam Qubba,
