Goodday to you. Please read this business proposal carefully. First let me introduce myself. My name is Mrs Susie Ching and I am an employee at Bank of China, here in Hong Kong Attached to Private Banking Services. I am contacting you regarding a customer and an investment placed under our banks management portfolio approximately 5 years ago. Please take this seriously and all I want is a honest and transparent business transaction with you.

At the beginning of the year 2010, a businessman came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our Private Banking Services Department. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of $20 Million United States Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case. I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the Private Banking Services Department, especially given the volume of funds he wished to invest at our bank.

Unfortunately, in the year 2011, my client and his entire family was involved in a plane crash and unfortunately all passed on. Since his death I have made several inquiries to the USA embassy to attempt locate any of his extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. There after my bank launched an official investigation aimed at locating possible surviving relatives or friends but to no success too. After these several unsuccessful attempts I decided to look for a next of kin that can stand in and claim this money. You being in another country and most importantly having same last name with the deceased...I think you will fit as a potential benefactor of the funds even if you are in no way affiliated or related with the deceased.

My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation. What this means, with you being in another country, I have considered the fact that our dear late fellow died with no identifiable family member. This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. According to normal practice, after all investigation has been done and there is no one to come forward and make claims, the funds will be left dormant and as a result of the protracted inactivity of the portfolio account, and by the end of this current financial year a broadcast request is been made for statements of claims to our bank by the French government, This will result in the money entering the French government treasury. This will not happen if I have my way.

At this moment there is US$27,813,098.00 deposited, I alone have the deposit details and my bank will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. My proposal, I am prepared to place you in a position whereby an instruction is given to officially release the deposit to you as the closest surviving associate, and all instructions shall be done in accordance with the rule of banking law, This project will be of great benefit to us. As a matter of fact, an attorney will be contracted to help re-validate and notarize all the necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim you make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us seeing this deal through. I guarantee you that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law, We shall share the money 60%/40%.

If you find yourself interested to work with me, please do respond to my email, then I will initiate the process towards a quick conclusion. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences might be, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold, this is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients, please do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord I shall have the pleasure of meeting you, after this task has been completed.

I await your response with interest to enable us proceed with the project. Please contact me via my private email susieching4@gmail.com


Yours Sincerely,
Mrs Susie Ching
