Hello Dear,
I sincerely apologize for intruding into your privacy especially by
contacting you through this means for a business transaction of this
magnitude, but due to its seriousness and urgency it therefore became
necessary for me to seek your assistance. This is a genuine transaction and
is 100% risk free. All I'm demanding from you is your honest co-operation to
enable us achieve our goal, and not a perfidious person
My name is Mr. Tony Clive of the Independent Committee of Eminent Persons
(ICEP), from Great Britain with British international passport number
014240992, this is a sign of sincerity, transparency, honesty and
truthfulness; I am a member of Independent Committee of Eminent Persons
(ICEP), London. . I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of
this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come
by as a result of this mail. I contacted you independently and no one should
be informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain
facts that I believe would be of interest to you.
ICEP is charged with the responsibility of finding bank accounts in
Switzerland belonging to Non-Swiss indigenes, which have remained dormant
since World War II. It may interest you to know that in July of 1997, the
Swiss Banker's Association published a list of dormant accounts originally
opened by non-Swiss citizens.
These accounts had been dormant since the end of World War II (May 9, 1945).
Most belonged to Holocaust victims; the continuing efforts of the
Independent Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP) have since resulted in the
discovery of additional dormant account -54,000 in December 1999. The
published lists contain all types of dormant accounts, including
interest-bearing savings accounts, securities accounts, safe deposit boxes,
custody accounts, and non-interest-bearing transaction accounts. Numbered
accounts are also included. Interest is paid on accounts that were interest
bearing when established. The Claims Resolution Tribunal (CRT) handles
processing of all claims on accounts due non-Swiss citizens.
A dormant account of Mikhail Khodorkovsky the Richest man in Russia and
owner of the following companies Chairman CEO: YUKOS OIL Russian Largest Oil
Company) Chairman CEO: Menatep SBP Bank (A well reputable financial
institution with it Branches all over the world)) with a credit balance of
US$40,000,000 US dollar plus accumulated interest was discovered by me. As
you know Mikhali has been sentenced life in jail. Being a top executive at
ICEP, I have all secret details and necessary contacts for claim of the
funds without any hitch. The funds will be banked in Holland/London, and we
can share the funds and use it in investment of our choice. Due to the
sensitive nature of my job, I need a foreigner to HELP claim the funds. All
that is required is for you to provide me with your details for processing
of the necessary legal and administrative claim documents for transfer of
the funds to you. Kindly provide me with your full name, address and
telephone/fax. For the fund to be transferred to a secure, finance company
in London or Holland of which you will be capable of accessing the funds
gradually and transferring to your country and other banks of choice in the
world. My share will be 50/50 percent of the total amount.
THERE IS NO RISK INVOLVED; I find myself privileged to have this information
and this may be a great opportunity for a life time of success without risks
and please at the receipt of this mail and you are convinced you can do this
business with me maturely without betrayal, kindly reply me urgently to
enable us commence on the arrangement.
