Dear ,

Thank you for giving me your time, Let me start by introducing myself,
I am Mrs Wang Min a staff of CITI BANK here in HONG KONG; I am
contacting you concerning a customer and an investment placed under
our banks management; as a matter of fact it was 4 years ago. I would
respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail private
and also to kindly respect the integrity of the information you come
by as a result of this email. I contacted you independently of our
investigation and no one is informed of this communication; I would
like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of
interest to you. it is of great importance for you to take care and
understand every word which I have written down below; please be
patient and read the explanation in my email.

In 2014, the subject matter; Ref: HI/DSB/458/4 03/05 77 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 $30.000.000 USD 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 put into
our bank.

Few months later his attention was needed regarding a business which i
was going to discuss with him but i was unable to reach him, I made
futile efforts to locate him I immediately passed the task of locating
him to the internal investigations department of our bank. Four days
later, information started to trickle in, that he was apparently dead,
a person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart
attack in Cannes, South of France; we were soon enough able to gather
more information and the cause of death was confirmed. The bank
immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of
kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his
funds. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who
patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels
of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he
listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an
account with us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are
rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the
accounts anonymous. This bank also gives the choice to depositors of
having their mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring
that there are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they
nominate next of kin. Private banking clients apart from not
nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in our
care, in this case; he died Intestate..

There is $30.000.000 USD deposited, I alone have the deposit details
and they will release the
deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. Also I alone know
of the existence of this deposit for as far as the finance firm is
concerned, the transaction with our deceased customer concluded when I
sent the funds to the firm, all outstanding interactions in relation
to the file are just customer services and due process. The finance
firm has no single idea of what's the history or nature of the
deposit, they are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit
to any party that comes forward, and this is the situation. This bank
has spent great amounts of money trying to track the family of the
deceased; they have investigated for months and have found no family
but however the investigation has officially come to an end.

My proposal; I am prepared and ready to place you in a position
whereby an instruction is given to the finance firm to officially
release the deposit to you as the closest surviving
relation/associate, and all etiquette shall be done in accordance with
the rule of law, I certainly can guarantee you that. By the common
law, the power of bequeathing is coeval with the first rudiments of
the law. There is no ruling which prevents an inheritance from being
so exhausted by legacies as to render it unworthy of the theirs
acceptance; perfect operation whereby the paper work shall be
co-ordinated in such a way that your status as a sole beneficiary is
confirmed. Upon receipt of the deposit, I will share the money with
you in half and no more; that is: I will simply nominate you as the
next of kin and have them release the deposit to you; afterwards we
share the proceeds 50/50.

I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that
would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming
the deposit, but on the other hand, you as a indifferent foreigner
would easily pass as the beneficiary with the rights to claim, I
assure you that I could have the deposit released to you in a few
days. I will simply inform our bank of the final closing of the file
relating to the customer If you find yourself interested to work with
me, please contact me specifically, if you give me positive signals, I
will initiate this process towards a quick conclusion. It is necessary
to inform you that under no condition should you contact me via
official channels; I will simply deny knowing you and about this
project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through our
official lines neither do I want you contacting me through my official
email account. I do not want any direct link between you and me. My
official lines are not secure lines as they are periodically monitored
to assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality
Management policy, please observe this instruction religiously.
Please, again, note I am a Family woman; I am married with kids, 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; 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 plan a meeting.

I await your response.
Mrs Wang Min
