Subject: Hello
Good Day
I am a Principal Asset Manager with Hang Seng Bank Hong Kong. I
respectfully seek your sincere consent in this profitable proposal
that I will explain to you.
Approximately Nine (9) years ago, precisely on OCT 6th, 2011, a
Canadian Expatriate Oil consultant/contractor with a Chinese mineral
cooperation, deposited a numbered sum of Twenty Million United States
Dollars (20,000,000 USD) in my branch valid for twelve calendar
months. We have not heard from him since then.
However On further inquiries we found out He was involved in an fatal
automobile accident in which he died intestate, All paper works in my
bank revealed that he did not declare any next of kin nor relatives.
This means that no one will ever come for this money since its been
nine years. I can be able to make you the ‘sole beneficiary’ of these
funds.
For all your troubles I propose that we split the money in half. Once
I get your willingness and response I will give you further
information on this huge deal, what I require is that you DO NOT
betray my confidence, and always maintain the strict confidentiality
that this business requires. With your maximum cooperation, we will be
able to convince them beyond reasonable doubt with the information I
have as an insider and get them transfer funds to your designated bank
account abroad.
We should act swiftly to enable us complete this transaction
successfully
I wait your urgent [email protected]
Yours Sincerely,
Yung Waihung
