Subject: Business Proposal (Can I Trust You?)
MRS. DEBRA DANILO
CREDIT ACCOUNTS OFFICER
HEAD OFFICE BANCO DE ORO UNIVERSAL BANK.
12 ADB AVENUE, ORTIGAS CENTER, MANDALUYONG
CITY PHILIPPINES.
Good Day,Let me start by introducing myself, I am MRS. DEBRA DANILO,
CREDITACCOUNTS OFFICER BANCO DE ORO UNIVERSAL BANK. I am writing you this
letter based on the latest development at my bank, which I will like to
bring to your personal edification.
I am a top official in charge of client accounts in (EQUITABLE PCI BANK)
which is now BANCO DE ORO UNIVERSAL BANK inside the Philippines the merger
was late 2007.In 2001, my client was going through a horrendous divorce in
the United States of America and was on the verge of losing most of his
estate to his vicious and diabolical wife.
As a result of this alarming predicament, my client came to me with a very
brilliant idea. He transferred some funds,ten million two hundred
thousand dollars ($10.2m) to a fixed deposit account in my bank under an
alias which only the two of us knew about as the confidentiality of the
matter was necessary for his protection.Due to his untimely death in early
2004, the funds have been sitting in the account ever since and will
continue to do so perpetually unless we do something about it.
This is where you come in. My client did not declare any next of kin in
his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. Against
this back drop, my suggestion to you is that I would like you as a
foreigner to stand as the next of kin to our client so that you will be
able to receive his funds.
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we can
come out successful. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the
necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to my client.
All that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with
your Full Names, Home Address and telephone number so that the attorney
can commence his job.The allocation of our money will be as follows:
30%($3.06m) to you for your part in this, 70% for me.
Again, I will be in charge of everything else. I will assume all
responsibilities for this endeavor so you don't have to worry about any
legal ramifications, just what you will do with all that money. Your
urgent response is highly anticipated so please email me through this
email address (mrsdebradanilo@live.com) for more details on this
transaction as soon as possible.This should be kept very secret and
confidential.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Kind Regards,
Mrs. Debra Danilo.
