Subject: HELLO FROM MR SCOTT,
Hello Sir/Madam,
My name is scott E.Llyods, I trained and work as an external auditor for the EFG Private Bank Limited, Jersey, Channel Islands, working as part of a bigger team thatcovers the entire Channel Islands. I have taken pains to find your contact through a colleague that is connected with the British Chamber of Commerce On routine audit check last year, I discovered some investment accounts that had been dormant for at least 9 years. All the accounts belong to a single/ one account holder with monies totalling a little above 3.6 million United States Dollars. Now banking regulation/legislation here demand that I do notify the fiscal authorities after a statutory time span of 8 years when dormant accounts of this type are called in by the Jersey monetary regulatory bodies.
The above set of facts underscores my reason for writing and proposing to you. My investigations of the said account reveals that the investor, a Briton had died in 1997—the exact time the account was last operated. I can confirm with certainty that the said investor died interstate and no next –of –kin to his estate has been found or has come forward all these years.I am of the settled conviction that using my insider leverage, I, working with you can secure the funds in the account for ourselves instead of allowing it pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the Government of Channel Islands . This is especially possible as you bear the same LAST NAME with the said investor. This exactly is why I crave your participation and co-operation .I have in my custody all relevant documents (legal and Banking) that will facilitate yourclaims as the beneficiary of the funds.
If this offer is okay by you, we can put minds together and workout the modalities and our mutual benefits.I shall however leave out the finer details of this transaction till I receive an affirmation of your desire to participate . Be rest assured that I am in control of the situation and as such, there would be no risk whatsoever if you elect to come on board. Needless to say, UTMOST CONFIDENTIALITY is of vital importance if we are to successfully reap the immense benefits of this transaction, which I have created for this purpose only.(1)PHONE,FAX AND MOBIL.I do expect your prompt response.
Truly
scott E.Llyods
