Dear Partner,

Thank you very much for your interest in this project. I found you/your e-mail address through BOE/Microsoft business file and decided to offer you this project. The funds in question (£11,600,000.00) Eleven Million Six Hundred Thousand Great British Pounds have lingered unclaimed in my bank since 2012. I discovered with dismay through the help of my bank attorney that the beneficiary of the funds had a car accident in March 2012 with his wife in Germany, and there was no beneficiary stated as the next of kin to the deceased funds. That is to say, no entity would ever come forward to file for the claims.

This transaction is strictly confidential. Like I said before, due to this issue on my hands now, it became necessary for me to seek your assistance, I am quite certain about that. You have nothing to worry about, I will do everything legally required to ensure that this project goes smoothly; It shall pass through all Laws of International Banking. Having resolved to entrust this transaction into your hands, I want to remind you that, it needs your commitment and diligent follow up. If you work seriously, the entire transaction should be over in a couple of days.

Read the following and get back to me:

Firstly, I will want to know precisely the type of occupation/job that you do and how old you are. You should note that this project is highly capital intensive, this is why I have to be very careful; I need your total devotion and trust to see this through. I know we have not met before, but I am very confident that we will be able to establish the necessary trust that we need to execute this project.

I am in contact with a foreign online bank; I now intend that you open an account in your name in this foreign bank. The money would be transferred to your account which you will open in the bank for both of us, this is the best way I have found, and it will protect us from my bank.

I want us to enjoy this money in peace when we conclude. So you ought to listen to my instructions and follow them religiously. Also, you have to know that I cannot transfer this money in my name as my bank will be aware that it is from me, this is where I need you. As result of this, you will have to open an account in the corresponding bank I will direct you to open an account with.

I will obtain a certificate of deposit from my bank, it will then be issued in your name, and this will make you the legitimate owner of the funds. After this, the money will be banked online for both of us. Finally, we can then instruct the bank to transfer our various shares into our respective home bank accounts.

I will also perfect the documentations with the assistance of my attorney to give the transaction the legal right. Before I commence, I will need you to send me a copy of any form your identification (Driver's license, Work ID or International passport) and your current address and telephone number to reach you personally. I want to be sure that I am transacting with the correct person. As soon as I get these from you, I will commence the paper work. I hope you understand why I need all these, the money in question is huge and I want to ensure that I know you well before I proceed to give you all the details to commence the project. I will send you the name and contact details of the bank so that you can commence communication with them.

I have really invested much in this transaction, so please accept the 40% I intend to give to you while I take 60%. For your information I will be coming over to your country for my share of the money once the funds credit your account at the bank that we will be using for this transaction.

Please endeavor to keep this transaction strictly confidential to yourself alone. Do not discuss it with anybody, I have a 24-year career with my bank (Bank Of England) and I do not Intend to ruin all that. I really can't wait till the funds leave my bank because I have not been able to sleep nor eat properly for the past days. Attach to this mail is my working ID for your reference.

Once again, ensure that you keep this project confidential; do not discuss it with anybody, because of the confidential nature of this transaction and my work.

Please reply soonest.

Kindest Regards,
Mr. Long Zion

Banking & Chief Cashier
