From: Mr. Saul Gustavo Delrieux
Banco Credicoop Cooperativo Ltdo
Reconquista 484,
Piso 5, Buenos Aires
Argentina.
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Saul Gustavo Delrieux director
of operations of the Banco Credicoop Cooperativo Ltdo, Buenos Aires Branch.
I have an obscured business suggestion for you. One of our clients/personal
friend, Late Mr. Diego Vidal an Argentine who was a private business man
unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash of Lineas Aereas Privadas
Argentinas (LAPA), an Argentina airliner which crashed during takeoff from
Buenos Aires' domestic airport on August 31, 1999, including his wife and
only daughter.
You can read more about the crash on visiting these sites below,

2. http://www.airdisaster.com/photos/lapa3142/photo.shtml
Before the plane crash, Mr. Diego Vidal made a numbered fixed deposit for 18
calendar months with a value of US$ 24,500,000.00 (Twenty Four Million, Five
Hundred Thousand United State Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity several
notice was sent to him, another notification was sent and still no response
came from him. We later found out that Mr. Diego Vidal and
his family had been killed in that plane crash. After further investigation
it was also discovered that Mr. Diego Vidal next of kin is his daughter who
died with him.
What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the
expiration 6 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Argentine
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 Mr. Diego Vidal so that you will be able to receive these
funds for both of us.
WHAT IS TO BE DONE:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall
come out successfully. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the
necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Mr. Diego
Vidal, 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 favour for the movement of the funds to an account that will
be provided by you.
This process is 100% risk free as we have set out all the modalities to see
that a legalized method is used because the attorney will prepare all the
necessary documents. Please note that utmost secrecy and confidentiality is
required at all times during this transaction. 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% set aside for any incidental expenses
incurred during this transaction. If you are not interested, please delete
this letter so that I can scout for another competent partner to conclude
this transaction. Should you be interested please send me your full
names,telephone/fax number, and email address.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mr. Saul Gustavo Delrieux.
