Subject: Urgent.
Please do accept to partner with me on this urgent proposal. I got
your contact through a private search on a directory and had a deep
feeling that you will be reliable and capable of assisting In
accomplishing this transaction.
I am Franklin Brown, the Chief financial officer NatWest Bank UK, here
in the United Kingdom. The reason for this email is to seek your
partnership for a business transaction that will give us a great
opportunity of being in possession of an unclaimed sum of $12.5M (
Twelve Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only ), an
investment deposit that belongs to our late foreign Customer.
The reason for contacting you came as a result of the need to present
a foreigner as a beneficiary to the fund since our bank has not seen
any of the relatives that came up to claim this fund, and also for the
fact that the board has resolved to allow this fund to be confiscated
by the British Government in the event that no beneficiary comes up.
As an officer of this bank, I cannot be directly connected to this
money, so my basic aim of contacting you is to assist me receive this
money in your bank account as a beneficiary, and get 40% of the total
funds as commission.
I will provide you with all the necessary information and documents
from the involved authorities to legally back up the claim, so that
this $12.5M will be transferred to your nominated account
successfully.
If this proposal satisfies your interest, then get back to me with the
below information: FULL NAMES, TELEPHONE/FAX, MOBILE NUMBERS, ADDRESS,
AGE / SEX and OCCUPATION.
I will appreciate it very much if you do not make undue advantage of
the trust I have bestowed on you. I assure you we can achieve it
successfully.
Kind regards,
Franklin Brown
