Fraud email example:
From: "Song Lile" <song_hangsang2nkxbmn@verizon.net>
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 03:39:21 +0200
Subject: Business
From: Mr Song Lile
Hang Seng Bank Limited
83 Des Voeux Road, Central
Hong Kong SAR
Good Day ,
I'm Song Lile, I work with the Hang Seng Bank here in Hong Kong. Although
the internet is a very hard place to meet people because you don't know who
to trust, what to believe and what not to,I have an obscured business
suggestion
for you..Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Colonel Sadiq Uday who was
with
the Iraqi forces and also businessman, made a numbered fixed deposit for 18
calendar months, with a value of Thirty millions Five Hundred Thousand
United
State Dollars only in my branch.Upon maturity several notices was sent to
him,
even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war another
notification
was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that the
Colonel
along with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a
bomb blast
that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Colonel Sadiq Uday
did not declare
any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank
deposit. And he
also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me
knew of his
deposit in my bank. So, Thirty millions Five Hundred Thousand United State
Dollars is
still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What
bothers me most
is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration 5 years the
funds will revert to
the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the
funds. Against
this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner
to stand as the next
of kin to Colonel Sadiq Uday so that you will be able to receive his funds.
MODALITIES:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall
come out successful.
I have an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back
you up as the next of
kin to Colonel Sadiq Uday, all that is required from you at this stage is
for you to provide me with
your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his job.
After you have been
made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your
behalf and secure the necessary
approval and of probate in your favour for the move of the funds to an
account that will be provided
by you.There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we are going to
adopt a legalized method and
the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavor to
observe utmost discretion
in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been transferred
to your nominated bank
account we shall then share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for you.
Should you be interested you can reach me on my private email:
songlileprivate17@yahoo.com.hk

1,Full names,
2,private phone number,
3,current residential address,
And finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this
operation.
