As the Audit Accounting Officer of the bank, I have access to lots of documents because I handle some of the bank’s sensitive files. On the course of the last year 2019 business report, I discovered that my branch in which I am the Audit Accounting Officer made (?5,720,000.00). Million British pounds from some past government contractors in which my head office are not aware of and will never be aware of. I have placed this funds on what we call escrow call account with no beneficiary.

There are practically no risks involved, it will be a bank-to-bank transfer, and all I need from you is to stand claim as the Original depositor of these funds who made the deposit with my branch so that my head office can order the transfer to your designated bank account.

Today, I had a chat with a person who tried to impersonate this guy.
It was fun since he was so obvious and clumsy that I could see through what his intention was when he talked.
Unlike this scam email, he made me a more lucrative and attractive offer like 50% of the total funds as a commission.
And I was told that he would set up his own investment company in Korea and he thankfully promised me a branch manager position in his company right after closing this deal successfully.
Imagining that I would become a millionaire, I enjoyed a sense of happiness for a little while even though I knew he was just trying to swindle me.
On top of that, he even sent me soft copy of his forged working ID card which looked so sloppy on my exceptional request pretending to be a genuine employee in SCB.
