Hi, I work in operations in a bank. A customer whose bank account I'm in charge of passed away due to Corona Virus, without a beneficiary or family. I'm interested in filing you as her beneficiary so you and I can split it after my bank releases the cash to you, else the bank will keep the money anyway. Just let me know if you're interested or just ignore my message if you're not interested. I'll tell you more or answer any questions you may have if you're interested but be rest assured that this is no joke and will be carried out officially and well from the inside. Write me at: essessess1965@hotmail.com
Thank you.

subject: Hello.
mailed-by: hotmail.com

I am happy to hear from you and I want you to know that this is no joke like I already assured you. I therefore ask that you give me the attention needed for us to successfully conclude this transaction and without delays.

The funds in the account will be released to you after I insert your details into the relevant spaces in our database then I will alert the relevant office so contact will be made and the bank will then proceed to release the funds to you.

Therefore, I will need you to send me the following details:

Your full names.
Your gender. ( Male or female )
Your contact or postal address.
Your job.
Your nationality.
A copy of your driver's license or a copy of your international passport or a copy of any valid ID.

These are what I need to not only prove it to you but to get the funds into your bank account but bear in mind that the difference in your surname and the surname of the customer will not matter as far as your details are inserted into our system and you are listed as his relative. So these details are what I will need to do my job then I will call the attention of the bank to make official contact with you and then everything can work according to plans.

The amount left behind is One million three hundred and fifty thousand US Dollars Only and we shall share it in half between both of us after the money is released to you. I want you to bear in mind that if the money is released to you and you decide not to pay my share into the account I will provide then I will simply implicate both of us and we shall both bear the consequences, so it is better for you to have it in mind from the beginning that there shall not be any cheating or attempt to cheat between me and you.

I don't want us to have any other direct communication except through this email until everything is concluded. If everything is clear to you then let me know otherwise ask me any question you have so I can answer it and make this very clear for you because this is a very clear and direct transaction without any complications if we agree not to cheat each other. If you have any questions then don't hesitate to ask me. Let me hear from you soonest then.

Thank you,

Smith.

How are you doing today, hope all is well with you? I am yet to hear from you since my previous message and would love to hear from you soonest so we can proceed, ok? But before then, I need to let you know that we'll not be able to succeed in this transaction without trust, which is why trust is very paramount for us and in this transaction. My job is to insert your details into the relevant spaces as the beneficiary of the funds then inform the bank so they will release the funds to you. Thereafter I will meet with you or send you my bank account so you can send my part of the funds to me, so I want to make somethings clear to you. If you decide not to send my part of the funds or if you decide to cheat me and send me less than what we agreed on then I will let the cat out of the bag, in the sense that I will let the authorities know how the funds came about and then you and I will be put away for sure. But if we go about this transaction with trust and do as planned then we can complete this transaction and go ahead to live our lives without issues or problems, ever after and no one will ever know what happened.

So I ask here and now that you be clean and let's do this without hiccups. I have seen several transactions like this go down among the top echelon of the bank and no one does anything about it because their gentleman's agreement is always followed to the letter and we can do as well, hope you understand?

I therefore ask that you let me know if I can trust you and if you can do as planned so we will not have any issues in the future, please.

Thank you,

Smith.
