Subject: LET'S WORK TOGETHER
Hello Dear,
I am Mr. Luis Hartford, executive office holder, General operation and
regional accountant of FIRST PILLAR FINANCE BANK, UNITED KINGDOM, i
believe it’s God’s will for me to come across you today, also I hope
that you will not expose or betray this trust and confident that I am
about to impose on you. I did a discreet search on the internet about
someone with the same last name as the deceased, so when I saw your
name, I was pushed to contact you for our mutual benefit.
One of our customers from your country had a fixed deposit account
with our bank in 2004 that valued the Sum of £6,300,000.00 (Six
million, Three hundred thousand British pounds). The maturity date for
this deposit was in 2007, unfortunately he was among the death victims
of the May 26th, 2006 earthquake disaster in Jawa, Indonesia that
killed about 5,782 people. He was on a business trip in Indonesia
during this disaster that ended his life and entire family. And he did
not state any next of kin Heir-apparent when the account was opened,
although as his account officer, he told me that he will later forward
one of his relative’s name as his next of kin Heir to the account
which he did not fulfill before he met his death.
And since then, I have been looking for someone from your country with
a similar name. I was happy when I saw your name and I am now seeking
your cooperation to present you as the next of kin Heir to this
account hence you have a similar last name with the deceased. Do not
be afraid, there is no risk involved and every legitimate arrangement
to perfect this deal has been put in place. And for your involvement
in this deal, you will receive 50% of the total amount after the money
is transferred to you. Also for confidentiality in this transaction I
will like us to keep it via email for now. Should you consider this
offer interesting, kindly send me the below information of yours
completely to my alternate Email Address:
Your complete name:
Your full contact address:
Your direct mobile phone number:
Your main occupation:
Your Age:
Thanks in anticipation of your urgent response.
Best Regards
Mr Luis Harford
