Your Attention;
Greetings to you and your family. I am with Investment Banking, RBA Zentralbank, bern, switzerland. I am contacting you independently as no one is informed of this communication. On July 6, 2004, a client of ours, a consultant/contractor with the Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation though now deceased, had a financial portfolio with accrued profit and interest standing at 21 Million United States Dollars, which he requested be liquidated from his accounts and have it deposited with our
affiliate investment and security firm, RBA FINANZ for numbered fixed deposit for 6 (six) calendar months for a good investment interest rate (call deposit) as advised by me at that time. I undertook all the processes and ensured I followed his precise Instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited at RBA FINANZ.
Upon maturity several notice was sent to him and no response came from him. Another notification was sent last year and still no response came from him. The Bank officially sent a two-man delegate to his contract employers, Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation and to his forwarding address in Malaysia where he resides only to find out that the business mogul and his family perished in the Tsunami disaster. After further investigations, it was also discovered that the decease did not declare any next of kin in his official papers,including the paper work of his bank deposit. So, Twenty One Million United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. According to the laws of my country, since the contract period has long expired, after rolling over, the funds will revert to the ownership of the Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Please note that, I alone have the deposit details and I am prepared to share the deposit with you in halves plus interest accrued till date. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have RBA FINANZ Release the deposit to you and we share the proceeds 50/50. I need your partnership as a foreigner to ask the funds be released to you. I assure you that with all legal paperwork secured in your favor and drawn up in my bank, the deposit should be released to you within a few days via direct transfer to your provided account. I now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased as all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the deposit to be released in your favor as the beneficiary next of kin.
Please acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business endeavor by furnishing me with your full names, address and confidential direct phone numbers as well as email address for communication.These requirements will enable us file letters of claim to the appropriate departments for necessary approvals in your favor for the deposit to be released to you. We both stand to be well compensated on final conclusion of this project, I intend to go into lucrative investments with you as the funds manager, that is if you are willing. If this business endeavor is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I bestow in you.
Please reply to this mail (1karlbrader@myway.com) with your advised information, I would appreciate the mutual relationship.
Regards,
Karl Brader
