Subject: Important Business Transaction.
Greetings,
I am John Flint, the Chief Executive Director of HSBC (Hongkong and
Shanghai Banking Corporation). I have a serious business proposal
which will benefit the two of us and I want you to keep this as a top
secret. From my department in the bank, I discovered $23.5 million USD
which has been abandoned for so many years which belongs to a customer
who died with his family in an accident. I have all the documents to
change the account to your name and transfer the money to your
account.
Write back to me for more details through my private email.
Sincerely,
John Flint
