Subject: FROM MR LI SHI JU.
Mr. Li Shi Ju,
Hokkaido Bank,
Kita 7 Jou Branch,
North 7 West 4, Sapporo,
Hokkaido 060-6309,Japan.
Email: lishiju10@yahoo.com
Dear Sir,
Please do not be embarrassed by this unusual email with the request I am about
to make. Before going further let me introduce myself, I am Mr. Li Shi Ju
credit officer of the Hokkaido Bank in Japan and accounts officer to General.
Anderson Ernest Elwood , the subject of my request to you.
Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client General. Anderson Ernest Elwood who
was with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a fixed deposit for 270
days, with a value of ($22.5 M) Twenty two million Five Hundred Thousand
United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices were
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 General and his family had been killed
during the war in bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Elwood 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, $22.5 Million is
still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it.
What is most disturbing is that according to the laws of my country at the
expiration 3 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Japanese
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 Gen. Elwood so that you will be able to receive his funds.
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 Gen. Elwood,
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.
Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall
share in the ratio of 70% for me, 25% for you while the remaining 5% will be
used for any expenses required.
Should you be interested please send me your private phone and fax numbers for
easy communication and I will provide you with more details of this operation.
Please reply through this EMAIL: lishiju10@yahoo.com.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mr. Li Shi Ju.
