Subject: DID YOU GET MY MAIL?
Greetings From Chief Executive Director of Insurance/InvestmentH.B.O.S Plc Edinburgh EH3 9PEEmail:jodawson1962@mail2uk.comAlternative adress:jodawson1962@hotmail.co.ukwebsite: http://www.hbosplc.com/abouthbos/directors_biogs.asp
Contact me on any of these two above e-mail addresses.
Greetings, I am Ms.Jo Dawson,Chief Executive Director of the Retail Banking Division( H.B.O.S) I understand that the Internet is not the best way to link up with you because of the confidentiality which my proposal demands. However, I have already sent you this same letter by post one month ago, but I am not sure if it did get to you since I have not heard from you, hence i have no option but to resend it through e-mail again.
However, I was attending a business luncheon in Berlin,Germany and I got introduced to the renowned German businessman and property mogul,Mr Andreas Schranner(of the blessed memory). He engaged my services as an investment consultant and my primary assignment was to spearhead his investment forays in the United Kingdom.three months later I invited him to London and under my professional guidance and based on my advice he made a fixed deposit of $12,000,000 million dollars with Halifax Bank of Scotland.
This deposit was for 48 months and upon maturity I made effort to contact my client ,I could not reach him or any member of his family.I was forced to travel to Germany and there I got the tragic news that on july 25 2000, my client Mr Andreas Schranner,his wife Maria,their daughter Eich and husband Christian and their two children perished in the Air France concorde New York bound flight;please click here http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
I have made efforts to locate any member of his family with strong biological links to my late client without success.the search to find a close relation is one that has consumed time and resources.the insitution is asking me to either present a next of kin to late Andreas Schranner or forfiet the depsosit. my proposal is to package , present you as next of kin to late Andreas Schranner and process the fixed deposit and transfer custody to you for our mutual benefit.My capacity as an investment consultant to my late client gives me the discretion to package and transfer the deposit to you.
It will be in my interest to transfer this fund worth $12,000,000 Million in an account offshore. If you can be a partner to this please indicate interest immediately for us to proceed because it will amount to injustice if we do not take this decisive step to secure this deposit and invest it . The late Schranner was also a friend in addition to our business relationship.
I shall feed you with full details of this transaction upon receipt of your reply towards this proposal. Your contact phone numbers and name will be necessary for this effect. Contact me immediately. Regards, Jo Dawson
