Subject: GOOD DAY!!!
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 mail might sound so strange, but I want to assure
you that every word of it is true.
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
18 calendar months, with a value of Nine Million,Six Hundred
Thousand United State Dollars($9.6 Million) 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 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 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 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
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 operation.
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:
(dannchin_008@yahoo.com) and i will provide you with more details
of this Project.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mr Dan Chin.
