Subject: PLEASE ACKNOWLEGDE
Dear Friend,
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal
Ethics. I introduce myself as MR. WILLIAMS BROWN, a staff in the accounts
management Section of a well-known Bank here in the London. One of our
accounts with holding balance of $39,900,000.00 (THIRTY NINE MILLION NINE
HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATE DOLLARS) has been dormant and last operated in
the past 3 years.
>From my investigations and confirmations, the owner of this account is a
Foreigner by name Gerald Stone who died on the 4th of January, 2002 in a
plane crash. Since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of
this money as he has no family Member who is aware of the existence of
either the account nor the Fund.
Information from the National Immigration also states that he was single on
entry into London. I have confidentially discussed this issue with some of
the Bank officials and we have agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to
deal with. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next
of kin of these funds from the deceased and funds released to you after due
processes have been followed.
This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is
Legitimate and does not violate the laws of your country, on your interest;
let me hear from you with your full details.
Regards,
Mr. WIILIAMS BROWN
