Hello Barry,
My name is Elena Bradst, I work as the head of audit within our
bank’s account management team. It has come to our attention while in
the process of a new digital banking system, that a deceased client
probably related to you still has an active account within our bank,
containing a significant amount of funds.
We are bound by law to transfer the funds to any surviving family
member as the recipient of the deceased client. Please respond at
your earliest convenience so I can send you the details to get this
process in motion.
Best Wishes,
Elena Bradst
