Subject: In Search Of Honesty
Dear Partner,
Please treat this with the utmost confidentiality and if you do not have interest I apologize for my intrusion.
My name is Le Minh Thia; senior staff with Wing Lung Bank 112 Queen's Road, Central, Main Branch,Hong Kong.
I have a matter of utmost importance and confidentiality that I will like to discuss with you.
I am contacting you concerning an investment that was placed under our bank's management for a period of 18 months in 2001.
A client of my bank by the name Mr.Richard Gelb made a Fixed Deposit and Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his
forwarding address but I found out that he died without making a WILL, and no next of kin in all his official documents with my bank.
If you are interested then let me know so that i send you more information.Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured
that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us.
Best regards,
Mr. Le Minh Thai.
