Subject: urgent
Dear Friend,
I am Mr Son Abel Accounts supervisor with standard Bank plc London. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 1999, a Foreign Diamond consultant/contractor with the London Diamond Corporation, Mr.Brown Smith made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at SD$22,000,000.00, (Twenty-two Million Dollars) in my branch.Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, I sent a reminder and finally I discovered from his contract employers, the London Diamond Corporation that Mr.Brown Smith died from a rebel attack. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Brown Smith did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of USD$22,000,000.00 has ca!
refully/confidentially been moved out of my bank to a private organization in Europe for safekeeping. No one can ever come forward to claim it. According to London Law, at the expiration of 8 (eight) years,the money will revert to the ownership of the London Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I want you as a Foreigner to stand in as the rightful owner of the money. I deposited it in a private organization in two trunk boxes though the private organization does not know the contents of the box as I tagged them to be photographic materials for export. In the circumstance, I want to present you as the rightful owner of the boxes in the private organization so that you can be able to claim them with the help of my attorney. This is simple.I would like you to provide immediately your full names and address as well as your direct telephone and fax number so that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents which will put you in !
the right place as the owner of the box. The money will be moved out f
or us to your country and share in the ratio of 70% for me 20% for you and 10% for your expense. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney and this will guarantees the successful execution of this transaction on your behalf, please reply immediately via my email address. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction and swing into the necessary action while I confide in you hoping you will not betray me at last. For security reason please reply me through my private email address as follow ( mrsonabel@pc.nu)
Thanks and God bless
Mr.Son Abel
