MR. CHEUNG PUI
HANG SENG BANK LTD.
DES VOEUX RD. BRANCH,
CENTRAL HONG KONG,
HONG KONG.
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr.Cheung Pui director of operations
of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have an urgent business suggestion for you.
I honestly apologize and hope I do not cause you much embarrassment by contacting
you through this means for a transaction of this magnitude,but this is due
to confidentiality and prompt access reposed on this medium.Furthermore,due
to this issue on my hands now,it became necesary for me to seek your assistance,
and it is imperative for me to know your opinion
Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Major Fadi Bassem who was with the
Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18
calendar months, with a value
of Twenty Four millions Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only
in my branch. Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even during
the war early this year. Again after the war another notification was sent
and still no response came from him. We later find out that the Major and
his family had been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Major Fadi Basem
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, Twenty
Four 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 5 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 Major Fadi Basem 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 Major Fadi Basem , 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 file 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 thisissue.Once
the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall
share in the ratio of 70% for me, 25% for you and 5% for any expenses incure
during the transaction. Should you be interested please send me your full
names and current residential address and I will prefer you to reach me
via my private box,
{cheunp22003@yahoo.com.hk} 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.Cheung Pui.
