My name is Emily Portney, CEO of BNY Mellon's Asset Servicing. I was very close friends with the late American citizen engineer Richard D. Petrelli. On July 7, 2013, he died in an automobile accident that took place right here in New York. On July 20, 2014, an oil consultant for American Petroleum Corporation made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for US$155,000,000 for a period of twelve calendar months. (In US dollars, one hundred and fifty-five million) After these many futile attempts, I made the decision to hunt and find his relatives online, but to no success. I found your email in a business guestbook, and I have a strong intuition that you are a trustworthy individual. I can rely on you to complete this deal without raising the American Government's concerns about the sizable sum of money that Late Engineer Richard D. Petrelli fought hard for and deservedly owned. (He was a good man who, unaware that he would soon die, thought he could build the largest chemical firm in the United States right here in New York.)
I reached out to you so that we might work together to repatriate the deceased's funds, which were held in an account at my bank with a balance of about US$155,000,000, before they were seized or declared in this location. (In US dollars, one hundred and fifty-five million) As a result, I received a notification from the bank advising me to provide the next of kin or else his account might be frozen. I need your permission to name you as the deceased's last remaining next of kin (you don't have to share the same last name with him to do this), so that the account's US$155,000,000.00 value can be paid to you and we can split it equally, with 50% going to you and 50% for me, since I have been unable to contact the relatives for more than a year. With your participation and assistance, we will get the legal records necessary to establish the claim that is in your favor. You only need to participate sincerely and honestly if you want to help me with my business. I guarantee that this will be done in accordance with a written agreement that will protect you from any legal infringements. Please provide the information requested below so that we can continue our conversation. I appreciate your consideration of my advice.
