Fraud email example:
From: Cheung Park <cheungpark20@yahoo.com.hk>
Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2006 08:26:27 -0400
Subject: Very Urgeny
FROM: MR CHEUNG PARK
HANG SENG BANK LTD.
Sai Wan Ho Branch
83, Des Voeux Road.,
Central HK,
Hong Kong.
E-mail:cheungpark21@yahoo.com.hkLet me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Cheung PARK Director of Operations with the Hang
Seng Bank Ltd. I have a concealed business suggestion for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war our
client Major Fadi Bassem who was with the Iraqi forces and also a business man 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 notice was sent to him,even during the war early this year. Again after the
war another notification was sent and still no response came from him.We later find out that the
Major and his family had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Major Fadi Bassem 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 millions 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 to the
laws of my country at the expiration 3 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 Major Fadi Bassem 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 successful. I
have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the
next of kin to Major Fadi Bassem, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to
provide me with your FullNames and Address and your telephone numbers 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 letter of probate 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 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 share in the ratio of 60% for me, 40% for you.Should you be interested please
send me your Full names and address,your telephone and fax numbers and I will provide you with
more details of this operation.l will prefers you to reach me via this email:
cheungpark21@yahoo.com.hk as it is more convenient for me.Your earliest response to this
letter will be appreciated.
