MR. Wang K. Mok
Hang Seng Bank Ltd.
Sai Wan Ho Branch,
83, Des Voeux Road,
Hong Kong.
(wkmok05@yahoo.com.hk)
Good Day,
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. WANG K. MOK
director of operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have an
obscured business suggestion for you. Before the U.S and
Iraqi war our client Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan who was with
the Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed
deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of Twenty Four
million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my
branch.Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even
during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war
another notification was sent and still no response came from
him. We later find out that the General along with his wife and
only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast
that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Aadel
Akgaal Bastaan 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
million 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
Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan so that you will be able to receive
his funds.
MODALITIES:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so
that we shall come out successful. I have an attorney that will
prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the
next of kin to Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan, 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 fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary
approval and of probate in your favour for the move of the funds
to an account that will be provided by you. There is no risk
involved at all in this 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 this issue. Once the funds
have been transferred to your nominated bank account we
shall then share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for you.
Should you be interested please send me your,
1. Full names,
2. private phone number,
3. current residential address,
And I will prefer you reach me on my private email address
below: (wkmok05@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. Wang K. Mok.
