Subject: about Zoran
Hello Matijevic,

Nice to meet you. I know this message may come to you as a surprise.
Actually I have been searching for someone with this surname
”Matijevic” so when I saw your name here I was happy to contact you to
seek your cooperation. I am Mr. Eric Smith, and currently I work with
Citibank Ltd Texas, USA. I was the account officer to one Mr Zoran
Matijevic in our bank. I’m contacting you regarding Mr. Zoran
Matijevic’s funds that he deposited in our bank. Late Zoran deposited
sum of Us$7,500,000.00, Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand United
States dollars with our bank in the year 2018, unfortunately Zoran died
of heart disease in the year 2020 here in the United States. The funds
have been abandoned in the account since Zoran died and nobody know
about the deposit only our bank. Zoran was not married and he has no
child before he died.

As Zoran’s account officer, last week our bank asked me to look for
Zoran’s relative so that the funds can be released to his relative. This
is the reason why I’m contacting you to seek your cooperation so that we
can claim the funds from our bank and share it to ourselves 50% 50%. I’m
contacting you because you have the same surname with Mr Zoran. I’m very
sure with your cooperation and my involvement as his account officer we
can claim the funds from our bank without delay. As Zoran’s account
officer, I can secretly provide you information to any question our bank
may ask you about Zoran to prove your relationship with him.

Dr Cartland recommended we take action.

It’s better we claim the funds now and share it since no one know about
it, else our bank directors can take the funds and share it among their
self as abandoned funds if no one show up. I agreed to share the funds
with you 50% 50% as soon as our bank release the funds to you. I want to
asure you we will succeed in claiming the funds if only you follow my
instructions. There is no risk involved in this because I have already
made all the necessary arrangements regarding the claiming of the funds,
all I need now is your cooperation to claim the funds and share with
you. Please this is not a joke or tricks. Kindly think about this
proposal and get back to me in my e-mail below as soon as possible.

I’m Waiting for your response.

Mr. Eric .
