Dear Mr/Miss
How are you and your family doing? This message might meet you in utmost
surprise. precisely I cannot say why I have chosen you but do not be
worried for I come in peace and something very positive and if only you
can carefully read and digest the message below. I want to tell you
something very important, I got your reference in my search for someone
who suits my proposed business relationship.
However, I have to tell you this, because I think you may be a nice
person.
Its just my urgent need for foreign partner that made me to contact you
through this medium for this lucrative transaction. I am a banker
working with HSBC Bank here in Vancouver, Canada currently holding the
post of Managing director of my bank branch here in Vancouver.
I write to contact you for a very important business transaction which
will be of interest and benefit to our both families.
I have the opportunity transferring the leftover funds that worth the
sum of ($ 8,750,000.00) EIGHT ONE MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY
THOUSAND CANADIAN DOLLARS belonging to one of my bank customer who is
Late Mr. Canales Figueroa Gonzalez a Citizen of Chile, He was among the
victims of the Russian Passenger plane crash that erupted in a ball of
fire on the runway of Moscow's busiest airport, that lead to the death
of 41 people including late Mr. Canales Figueroa Gonzalez and members
of his entire family on the 5TH of May 2019.
I want to stress again that this transaction will be completed in the
legal due process without breaking any laws, My client had no other
relatives, as the accident took him and his wife and he had no written
will before his death. Since I am the account officer to the account,
anything I say concerning your application as next of kin to the account
with the bank will be followed by the executives in the bank. However,
before we can proceed further I want you to assure me that you will be
honest during the transaction and as soon as the funds are transferred
to you we can meet in person and share money in the ratio 60/40, 60%
will go to you and I will get 40%, I believe this is fair enough.
The money will be ES-cheated to the British government if no relative
comes to claim the funds after 3 years. That is why i am contacting You.
you do not need to worry about your kinship with my late client, I will
present you to the bank as the rightful next of kin and beneficiary to
the account.
If you agree to my business proposal. Further details of the transfer
will be forward to you as soon as I receive your return message.
I am waiting for your urgent response and you can ask me any further
questions regarding this transaction.
Best Regards,
Mr. Larry Tomei
Branch Manager HSBC BANK
