Subject: Confirm Your Interest
Hello Friend,
My name is Robson Bight; I am 53yrs old and an accounts manager in one of
the leading banks in London. For obvious reasons, I will prefer to keep my
bank anonymous for now and we shall relate only by e-mail until such a time
when I do have your full trust and confidence. What I have may be of
interest to you. It is a business proposal that will be beneficial to you
and I.
I live and work in London, United Kingdom. I have been working in a bank in
London for the past 17 years where I am presently an accounts manager. I
will give you my full details on your reply to this letter. My aim of
contacting you is to solicit your co-operation and assistance based on one
of the accounts under my management containing $20.5 million (Twenty
Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) which have remained dormant for the
last three years. This account was owned by the late Mrs. Haleh Teymoori,
who died in a car accident in June, 2006 and has since been buried and
forgotten in her native home in Iran.
During the course of my investigation, I found out that she lost her husband
Mr. Ahmed Teymoori from whom she inherited her wealth 2 yrs earlier, she had
no relatives knowing about the secret account in Europe. However, she left a
very important document written in her handwriting which was deposited in
one of our secret account vaults in the bank, which states among other
things what is to be done with her estate especially the money she secretly
kept in the account which amounts to $20.5 million (Twenty Million, Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars) and deposited in our correspondence bank in
Europe.
Please note the following:
1. You will get a commission of 30% of total funds.
2. I have all the necessary information regarding this transaction since I
am the account manager of my bank, I have also done all the homework on this
and I am very confident of its success. Do not reveal this to nobody, this
is very important, my whole life and career could be jeopardized, I shall
give you more technical details as time goes on if we move fast, we can
accomplish this as fast as possible.
I will inform you more on how we can get the money in her account
transferred into your account if you agree to co-operate with me on this on
your reply to this mail. I will also give you more personal details of me
and the transaction on your reply. Please treat this as confidential, urgent
and of utmost importance. Please reply to my private e-mail: bight1@sify.com
Your response to my mail will encourage me to give you more details about me
and this transaction.
Mr. Robson Bight
