Subject: DEAR FRIEND
DEAR FRIEND, I am Mr. WU CHUNG Assistant Director Of Operations of the DBS Hong Kong Ltd,Hing Lung Building, 202-210 Kingway road, Kowloon, An Iraqi named Amjad Shareef a business man made a numbered fixed deposit of (112,211,709.80 HKD) for 18 calendar months, this is valued to Fourteen Million Four hundred thousand United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war, three years ago (2005). Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that Amjad Shareef and his family had been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit their home at Mukaradeeb where his personal oil well was. After further investigation it was also discovered that Amjad Shareef 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, Fourteen Million Four hundred thousand United State Dollars is still laying 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 five years six months the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.My proposal, I am prepared to place you as the next of kin in a position to instruct DBS Hong Kong to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 70-30%. I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line in my involvement in claiming the deposit. I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform the bank of the final closing of the file relating to Amjad Shareef I will then officially communicate with my Bank and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these all is done. I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector. I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control of my destiny. These chances won’t pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a name that has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Let’s share the blessing. If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official email account. I do not want any notiable direct link between you and me. Please observe this instruction religiously. I am a family man, I have wife and children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence. Should you be interested please send me your full names, Phone Number and current residential address and I will prefer you to reach me on the email address :chung.wukong@gmail.com
I shall provide you with more details of another email and this operation.Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
I await your response.
WU CHUNG.
