FROM:MR.LI LE SONG
Hang Seng Bank Ltd
Fu Shan Mansion
25 Taikoo Shing Road
Taikoo Shing Branch
Hong Kong.
(lilesong75@yahoo.com).
I am Mr. Li Le Song credit officer of the Foriegn operations dept of the
Hang Seng Bank Ltd,Taikoo Shing Branch.I have a obscured business suggestion
for
you.Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Colonel sadiq Uday who was with
the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18
calendar months, with a value of Nineteen millions Five Hundred Thousand
United state Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notice was
sent to
him, even during the war early last year. Again after the war another
notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out
that the
colonel and his family had been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit
their home.After further investigation it was also discovered that Colonel
Sadiq Uday did not declare any next of kin in his,official papers including
the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time
he
was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my !
bank. So, Nineteen millions Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is
still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What
bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the
expiration 4
years  the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if
nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to
you
is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to
Colonel Sadiq Uday so that you will be able to receive his funds.
WHAT IS TO BE DONE:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall
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 Colonel Sadiq
Uday,all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me
with your
Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his job. 
After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for
claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of
probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an account that will be
provided
by you.There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we are going to
adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary
documents.Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters
concerning
this issue.Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank
account
the sharing ratio is open for negotiation for you . Should you be interested
please send me your full names and current residential address and I will
prefers you to reach me on the email address below (lilesong75@yahoo.com)
and
finally after that i shall provide you with more details of this
operation.Your
earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mr.Li Le Song.

Dear Sir,
With a very desperate need for assistance, I have summed up courage to contact
you. I am from (will disclose this later), presently working in Iraq with
an international organisation that I will also disclose later, I found your
contact particulars in an address journal. I am seeking your assistance
to evacuate the sum of (US$8.523 Million Dollars) Eight Million five Hundred
Thousand And Twenty Three Dollars to your country or any other safe country
of your choice, as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in
your care untill I complete my service here,this is no stolen money, and
there are no dangers involved.
SOURCE OF MONEY:
Some money in various currencies was discovered concealed in barrels with
piles of weapons and ammunitions at a location near one of Saddam,s old
palaces during a rescue operation, and it was agreed by all party present
that the money be shared amongst us, this was quite an illegal thing to
do, but I tell you what? no compensation can make up for the risks we have
taken with our lives in this hell hole.
The above figure was given to me as my share, and to conceal this kind of
money became a problem for me, so with the help of a German contact working
here, and his office enjoys some immunity, I was able to get the package
out to a safe cation entirely out of trouble spot. He does not know the
real contents of the package, and believes that it belongs to an Asian/American
who died in an air raid, and before giving up, trusted me to hand over the
package to his business associate. I have now found a secured way of getting
the package out to a safer country for you to pick up, and will discuss
this with you when I am sure that you are willing to assist me.
One passionate appeal I will make to you is not to discuss this matter with
a third party, should you have reasons to reject this offer, please destroy
this mail as any leakage of this information will be too bad for us.
I do not know for how long we will remain here, and I have survived 2 suicide
bomb attacks by the special grace of God, this and other reasons I will
mention later has prompted me to reach out for help, I honestly want this
matter to be resolved immediately. Please contact me as soon as
possible.
Regards,
Ali Ibrahim

"James Clapham, British soldier"
Good day, My name is James Clapham and I am a British soldier 
with the United Nations. I have some personal thing that I want 
to discuss with you which requires a matured mind, good understanding 
and a good sense of judgment.  
 
About three weeks ago, I met this helpless and peaceful lady by 
the name of Nada Dalal Nayif in Baghdad; she is a widow with 5 
children. She narrated her ordeal and the suffering she and her 
children had been going through.Nada Dahal told me that her husband 
was killed by Sadam Hussein's son Qusay some months long before 
USA came to save Iraq from the hands of the dictators.   
 
Her late husband was from the generation of Nayif-Da'ud group who 
were taken out of power by Saddam Hussein the mid 60s. Her husband 
became one of Sadam Hussein’s business friends after many years 
later. Just before her husband was murdered, saddam had given her 
husband some huge amount of money,($97 million dollars ) as part of 
the money which saddam wanted him to use in procuring arms, ammunitions 
and other ballistic materials for sophisticated war weapons. Nada 
revealed to me that her husband did not support saddam's motives and 
decided not to get involved in the
purchase of these weapons, so he decided to bury the money underground. 
it was her husband's refusal to cooperate with saddam's evil plans of 
war that led them to murder him in cold blood. 
 
During the war Iraq, she struggled to move the money along with the 
help of her children and headed towards the borders; they did well 
to dress and package the money in a way that nobody will ever know. 
Nada has confidently revealed the where about of the money to me. 
She wants to 
finally leave Iraq for good since there is no peace here, they live 
in fear and trepidation because some of saddam's loyalists and insurgents 
who are still in hidding are still creating havoc and hunting people 
such as the Nayif's family. The helpless woman needs our assistance 
to relocate with her children, to a peaceful country where she says 
they can change there religion and live without fear.  
 
I have contacted you because I need someone to assist me receive and 
keep this money while I plot their migration. I am just an ordinary 
soldier and I have will be court martial led if I ever handled such 
huge kind of money, I must confess that I do not know how to secure 
the money in term of investment. I have contacted you because I cannot 
directly move this money out of here and into my country and I am 
completely handicap due to my regimented life as a soldier, moreover 
most of us are being screened from time to time because of past 
incidents of soldier and marines who have been caught and court 
martial led for raiding and stealing Gold and other expensive 
jewelries from Saddam's palaces.  
  
I am working on how to move this money out of the country to a peaceful 
place where it will be in safe hands and I have done a perfect homework 
on this arrangement. I contacted you because I can not move this money 
directly into my country because of our involvement in the war and the 
constant checks on us during entry into our country. But with my position 
here, I have made perfect plans to move the money out of Iraq to Europe 
through one of United Nations cargo operations unit that constantly 
moves in and out of Iraq. 
 
I will need you to help me receive and keep this money and if possible 
assist me help Nada and her children prepare a safe home, although you 
are not obliged to do so as i am personally making serious alternative 
plans to move her family out of Iraq on my own. So i need to know if we 
can work this out as she is willing to compensate your richly for your 
help and this too affords me a lifetime opportunity. I would plead and 
advice that you keep all facts concerning this discussion between you 
and I alone considering my own involvement here in Iraq. 
All correspondents should be forwarded to the email:jclapham@post.cz 
I will be waiting to hear form you soon.
Regards.
James Clapham.

MR.VLAD TUDOR.
THE SAVINGS BANK OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION.
KIOVSKY BRANCH,
REPUBLIC OF RUSSIAN FEDERATION.
tudorvlad@excite.com
I am Mr. TUDOR VLAD, Bank Manager of The Savings Bank
Of Russian Federation, Kiovsky Branch,Samara
. I have urgent and very confidential business
proposition for you.
On February 9, 2001, An American International
Evangelist Pastor John Kelley, made a numbered time
(Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months,valued at
US$15,000,000.00 (Fifteen Million Dollars) in my
branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification
to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a
month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered
from his associates in Baghdad Iraq. The Baptist
Family that Pastor John Kelley was killed in a sniper
attack just outside of Baghdad,Traveling with a group
of pastors from across the Northeast on a two-week
mission to bring Arabic Bibles to the people of Iraq.
You will get more details at
http://www.turnto10.com/news/2848947/detail.html
On further investigation, I found out that he died
without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his
next of kin failed. I therefore made further
investigation and discovered that he did not declare
any kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.This
sum of US$15,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank
and the interest is being rolled over with the
principal sum at the end of each year. No one will
ever come forward to claim it.According to Laws of
Republic of Russian ederation, at the expiration of 5
(five) years, the money will revert to the ownership
of the Russian Government if nobody applies to claim
the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a
foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to this late
Man, so that the fruits of this old man's labor will
not get into the hands of some corrupt government
officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide
immediately your full names and address so that the
attorney will prepare the necessary documents that
will put you in place as the next of kin.
We shall employ the services of an attorney for
drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain
the necessary documents and letter in your favor for
the transfer. A bank account in any part of the world
that you will provide will then facilitate the
transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next
of kin. The money will be paid into your account for
us to share in the ratio of 70% for me 30% for you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be done by the attorney and my
position as the Branch Manager guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction.If you are
interested, please reply immediately via the private
email
address above. Upon your response, I shall then
provide you with more details and relevant documents
that will help you understand the transaction.
Please send me your confidential telephone and fax
numbers for easy communication.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest
assured that this transaction would be most profitable
for both of us because I shall
require your assistance to invest my share in your
country
Awaiting your urgent reply via my email address.
