Subject: From: Pang Man Yiu/Business Proposal

MR. PANG MAN YIU
DAH SING BANK LTD.,
108 GLOUCESTER ROAD,
WANCHAI,
HONG KONG.

Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr Pang Man Yiu, director of operations, Dah Sing Bank Ltd. I have an obscured business suggestion for you. Before the U.S. and Iraqi war, our client Colonel Fakhri Elmaleh who was with the Iraqi forces and also a business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of twenty nine million five hundred thousand United State Dollars in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that the Colonel and his family had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.

After further investigations it was also discovered that Colonel Fakhri Elmaleh did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank.

As you can see, twenty nine million five hundred thousand United States Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the by-laws of my country at the expiration of 11 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Colonel Fakhri Elmaleh so that you will be able to receive his funds.

WHAT IS TO BE DONE:

I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we will come out successful. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Colonel Fakhri Elmaleh, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your full name and address so that the attorney can commence his job, after you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also file in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary documentation for the movement of the funds to an account that will be provided by you.

There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been transferred, we shall share in the ratio of 70% for me, 25% for you and 5% for any expenses incurred during the course of this operation. Should you be interested please send me your private phone and fax numbers for easy communication, you can write me via my private box (pangyiudsb@chinamail.com) and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this operation.

Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Mr. Pang Man Yiu.
