From: D.Chin <dannychin77@yahoo.com>
Date: Thu, 11 May 2006 12:54:38 +0200
Subject: BUSINESS OFFER.
Dear Friend,
Compliments of the day!
I got your contact on my private search for a reliable
and trusted person to handle a transaction of this
nature. I know that the contents of this Email might
sound so strange, but I want to assure you that every
word of it is true and Genuine.I am Mr Daniel Chin,
credit officer of the AFC Merchant Bank.I have a
concealed business suggestion for you.Before the plane
crash of Macedonian's President and his Cabinet
Members on February 26, 2004 , our Client Mile
Krstevsk from the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs,Macedonia and also a Business Man made a
numbered fixed deposit for 12 calendar months, with a
value of Nine Million,Six Hundred Thousand United
State Dollars($9.6Million) only in my branch.You can
visit this website:
http://antiwar.com/deliso/?articleid=2043
After his death it was also discovered that Mile
Krstevsk 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, Nine Million,Six 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 of 2years the funds will
revert to the ownership of the Singapore 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 Mile
Krstevsk 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 mapped
out so that we shall come out successfully.I have
contacted an Attorney that will prepare the necessary
documentations that will back you up as the next of
kin to Mile Krstevsk ,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 approvals and letter of
Authority 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 according to the
International Banking Laws.
Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all
matters concerning this issue.Once the funds have been
transferred to your nominated bank account we shall
share in the ratio of 75% for me, 20% for you and
5%for any expenses incurred during the course of this
Project.Should you be interested please send me your
private phone and fax numbers for easy communication,
you can write me via my private box thus:(danielchinn7@netscape.com) and i will provide you
with more details of this Project.
Your earliest response to this letter will be
appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mr Daniel Chin.
AFC Merchant Bank
Singapore.
