Toward the end of my service with Bank of China where I worked for many
years,several of my colleagues and I set up companies with which we
successfully secured loans for speculation in Hong Kong and Singapore stocks
and real estate. We did this because it had dawned on us that we were paid
barely enough to feed our families while top government officials control
billions of dollars. The bank along with regulatory authorities from China
and Hong Kong started an investigation into the losses of money and as a
result a few of my colleagues and I went into hiding and have settled
ourselves and our families. Due to our positions as being involved with the
initial investigation, we cannot receive this money by ourselves or in our
names at this time.
Furthermore we had decided to remove this money and divide it accordingly
pending when the investigation dies down. This has occured and I cannot
leave the money unattended for much longer for fear that it might be
discovered. I hereby solicit your assistance to help take delivery of my
share of this funds totalling (US$128,400,000.00) into your custody,and you
will be adequately compensated with 20% of the sum. Suffice it to say that
the total monies involved between my friends and I totalled over Four
hundred and eighty five million United states dollars. It is my intention
therefore having your understanding and co-operation that you invest 75% of
these funds in the United States and Europe in commercial real estate as
well as low risk stocks and bonds on my behalf for a few years while the
balance 5% will cater for all local and foreign expenses incurred in
facilitating the transfer of this funds.
My projection is to conclude transfer of funds latest 14 working days from
date of reciept of the following information by email (Your full name and
address, your telephone and fax numbers and a brief profile of yourself to
assure me of your capability). Our perfected modalities is remittance of
stated funds appearing as you or your company's entitlement to your
nominated account. The requested information will enable me commence the
transaction and the paperwork from here.
Please contact me immediately you recieve this mail, by my more private
email;dchang59@myway.com or my fax number; 44-87-0912-3891 thus signifying
your capability and willingness to enable me give you additional details on
our proposed course of action for getting this funds to you 100% risk free.
