Subject: bank in Switzerland.
Â
How are you doing today? I am a banker with a bank in Switzerland.
Before I proceed, I must first apologize for this unsolicited mail to
you, I am aware that this is certainly not a conventional way of
approach to establish a relationship of trust, but you will realize
the need for my action, because I got your contact information from
the country public records when am searching for a last name similar
to one of the bankâs client, so I came across your contact details
and I decide to reach you through this medium of exercise. Though,
this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused by all sorts of dubious
persons, but I choose to reach you through internet because it still
remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium of communication
at the moment.
I am conducting a standard process investigation on behalf of our Bank
and this investigation involves a client and also the circumstances
surrounding investments made by this client with our Bank. Our client
died intestate and nominated no successor in title over the
investments made with our bank. The essence of this communication with
you is to request you provide us with your information (Address,
Telephone and Fax Numbers) / comment on this issue so that I can use
my position in the bank to establish your eligibility to assume status
of successor in title to the deceased.You must appreciate that we are
constrained from providing you with more detailed information at this
point. Please respond to this mail ([email protected]) as soon
as possible to afford us the opportunity to explain further details to
you.
Best Regards,
Berger Patrick.
