Subject: FROM ROYAL CHINESE CONSULTANT LOGISTICS
ROYAL CHINESE CONSULTANT LOGISTICS
AVDA. SHITAN LIU 205, C.P 28716,GANGZHOU. CHINA.
Please pardon me for the informal way this email is reaching you. It is not my intention to approach you through the internet but because i do not have your full information, hence i decided to contact you through this means.
My name is Barrister Zhou Wei, the director of Royal Chinese consultants Logistics, I am contacting you solemly on business related issues. It is true that many people are engaged in different types of internet scam and that has further made it imposible for people to differentiate between the genuine business proposal and dubious ones.
This business might be overtly covertly wrong but i will not allow my client´s life time earnings to be confiscated by people who did not suffer with him.
My cleint, (Engr) Chung Timothy, an American citizen who died in a plane crash[Korean Air Flight 801] with the whole passengers onboard on August 6,1997.And for your perusal you can view this web site (http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list) before his demise he made a deposite of four million three hundred thousand euros in a bank here in China which i witnessed as his personal attorney and all the documents will be sent to you for your perusal at your demand. His only daugther whom he used as his next of kin was also involved in the same plane crash as above., And i have tried my best to contact any of his family members or extended family members to make claim of this deposit but all to no avail.
The bank where he made the deposit has contacted me on this subject mater to provide the next of kin to my late client or the deposit will be taken to the national treasury as an abandoned deposit.
This is the reason why i am soliciting for your co-operation to be presented as next of kin to my late client. All documents that will authorize you as the next of kin will be secured by me, by the power of attorney which is bestowed on me as his attorney.
Upon your agreement to work with me to acheive this aim, i will plead with you to give me these few informations of yours:
1.FULL NAMES........................
2.FULL MAILING ADDRESS .............
3.PHONE AND FAX NUMBERS....................... (PLEASE FAX NUMBER IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE ALL THE DOCUMENTS WILL NOT BE SENT TO YOU THROUGH THE INTERNET).
4.A PHOTOCOPY OF YOUR ID OR INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT FOR IDENTIFICATION.............
5.PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER TO INCLUDE YOUR BANK INFORMATIONS (THE BANK WILL ASK FOR IT)
Please bear in mind that this issue is very confidential and i promised you that within 21 working days, this fund will be transfered into you choice bank account and i will be glad to share this money with you.
Please do not bother to reply if you are not willing to work with me, reply to barr_zhou_wei@yahoo.cn.
Thanks,
Best Regard,
Barrister Zhou Wei
