Subject: Hello Dear,
Operations, HSBC BANK,North Towers Branch, Bangkok, Thailand. I was
promoted to this exalted position some Four Months ago. Following the
ongoing debt settlement program by HSBC BANK, in my position as the
overall heads of operations I requested all the directors from their
various departments at HSBC BANK to notify beneficiaries whose
payments are still pending to have their payment files scrutinized for
immediate payment. Your payment file number HSBC-WBDSC/0177/18, is
among the files in my Office for the payment process. I have gone
through your payment files to discover that you had made several
attempts to claim your payment, but unfortunately there are always
hitches in the process. I also discovered that over 80% of the
beneficiaries waiting for their payment are having the same problem,
mostly financial backup to claim their inherited funds. To have this
situation resolved, we have approved two ways to amicably settle this
debt matter. For those who may not be able to afford the financial
requirements claiming their funds, the authorities of HSBC BANK
Thailand, have decided to provide them with affordable means to
resolve their long overdue payment. If you are not able to afford the
cost of processing your payment, the authority of HSBC BANK, will
provide you with a reasonable opportunity and privilege to resolve
this long overdue payment matter. The way out is for the authorities
of HSBC BANK, to release 50% of your total payment sum to you without
you paying the bank charges, then when you received your funds into
your home bank account, as soon as you confirmed the first 50% of your
long overdue payment.Note that ,You will be required to pay for the
handling fees for the issuing and signing of the banking documene for
the release of your fund and to enable you receive 50% of your
money,which you will be required to pay all the bank charges to HSBC
BANK,then the remaining of your money will be released pay and
transfer to your account without further delays . With this
arrangement I must let you know that you will issue the authorities of
HSBC BANK, a promissory letter to promise and assure HSBC BANK that
you will pay all the accrued bank charges when you must have received
50% of your entire payment sum. Be reminded that your promissory
letter must be stamp at the Oath commissioner’s office accordingly and
you will be responsible for the little amount. I am contacting you
through my personal email address and I do not have any personal
interest other than assisting you to accomplish your aims. If this is
okay with you I want you to get back to me to open official
communication with you. Reply: [email protected]
