Default Urgent Attention is Needed

> FROM THE DESK OF:
> MR. LIU KANG
> BANK OF CHINA
> HONG KONG BRANCH
>
> Dear Friend,
>
> How are you today and business in your country? I am
> Mr. Liu Kang, Bank Manager of Bank of China, Hong
> Kong Branch. I would respectfully request that you
> keep the contents of this mail confidential and
> respect the integrity of the information you come by
> as a result of this mail. I contacted you
> independently of our investigation and no one is
> informed of this communication. I know you would be
> wondering why I am writing you with a request such
> as this but I only urge you to read on.
>
> Sometime in 1999, a certain consultant/contractor
> Mr. Glenn Hatleberg made a numbered time (Fixed)
> Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at large
> amount (Amount withheld for known reasons) in my
> branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification
> to his forwarding address in America but got no
> reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally
> we discovered from his contract employers, the
> Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation that Mr. Glenn
> Hatleberg died alongside his wife, from an airplane
> crash. Further proof of the death of Mr. Glenn
> Hatleberg is in the following web pages for you to
> make confirmations and further research about his
> death:
>
> CNN - Names of those aboard Alaska Airlines Flight 261 - February 01, 2000
> - Alaska Air Flight 261 Passenger List
> CLINTON'S ROGUES GALLERY:
>
>
> If you are familiar with private banking affairs,
> those who patronize our services usually prefer
> anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from
> conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he
> listed no next of kin. In the field of private
> banking, opening an account with us means no one
> will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held
> under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to
> make the accounts anonymous. This bank also gives
> the choice to depositors of having their mail sent
> to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that
> there are no traces of the account. Private banking
> clients apart from not nominating any next of kin
> also usually in most cases leave WILLS in our care,
> in this case; Mr. Glenn Hatleberg died intestate. In
> line with our internal processes for account holders
> who have passed away, my bank conducted a search in
> good faith to determine who should have right to
> claim the estate. This has for the past months been
> unfruitful. This sum has since been sitting in my
> bank and the interest is being rolled over with the
> principal sum at the end of each year. No one, it is
> evident is going to come forward for it.
>
> According to the Laws of my environment, at the
> expiration of 7(seven) years, the money will revert
> to the ownership of the Chinese Government if nobody
> applies to claim the funds. What I wish to relate to
> you will smack of unethical practice but I want you
> to understand something. It is only an outsider to
> the banking world who finds the internal politics of
> the banking world aberrational. The world of banking
> especially is fraught with huge rewards for those
> who occupy certain offices and oversee certain
> portfolios. You should have begun by now to put
> together the general direction of what I propose as
> I alone have the deposit details and they will
> release the deposit to no one unless evidence of
> relationship with the deceased, which I shall
> provide you with, is presented. I alone know of the
> existence of this deposit for as far as the Bank of
> China is concerned, the bank's management has no
> single idea of the history or nature of the deposit.
> They are simply awaiting instructions to release the
> deposit to the party that comes forward. This is the
> situation. My bank has spent great amounts of money
> trying to track this man's family; they have
> investigated for months and have found no relative.
> The investigation has come to an end.
>
> Consequently, what I propose is that I will like you
> as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.
> Glenn Hatleberg so that the fruits of this old man's
> labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt
> government officials. Acting in this capacity really
> is simple as I will explain in detail to you when I
> get your response. However, I wish to state that
> because of my level of involvement, when you are
> awarded the funds and it has been paid into your
> account, it will be shared 60/40 between us.
>
> Being aware of this request I am making, I ask that
> if you find no interest in this project that you
> should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be
> vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no
> appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever
> contacted you. You may not know this but people like
> me who have made tidy sums out of comparable
> situations run the whole private banking sector. I
> am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find
> against good conscience, this may be hard for you to
> understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates
> that I make this move. Such opportunities only come
> ones' way once in a lifetime. If you will not work
> with me let me know and I will move on with my life
> but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is
> an opportunity to provide my family with new
> opportunities. The reward for this project makes it
> is a task well worth undertaking. I have evaluated
> the risks and the only risk I have here is from you
> refusing to work with me and alerting my bank.
>
> My position as the Branch Manager guarantees the
> successful execution of this transaction. If you
> find yourself able to work with me, I urge you to
> indicate to that effect by contacting me through
> this email address. Upon your response, if
> favorable, I shall then provide you with more

> get full understanding of this.
>
> I wish to inform you that should you contact me via

> In closing, please observe utmost confidentiality,
