"Courtesy of Business opportunity" Is this legal?
Wow! You never know what you'll find in your inbox.

From the desk of:
Mr. Robert Beaud
private email:robert202@echina.com
TOP SECRET/CONFIDENTIAL


Good Day,
Courtesy of Business opportunity, I take liberty
anchored on strong desire to solicit for your
assistance on this mutual beneficial and risk free
transaction with you, which I hope you give urgent
attention. I got your address from adverts in the
business directory that portrayed your establishment
in good light. I apologize if I have infringed on your
privacy.
To be precise, I am Mr. Robert Beaud, The Manager of
Bills/Exchange at the Foreign Exchange/Remittance
Department (Bank Name Withheld) for security reasons.
In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum of
US$30,500,000.00 (Thirty Million, Five Hundred
Thousand United States Dollars) in an account that
belongs to one of our customers who died along with
his entire family in 1988 Lockerbie Pan American
Airline plane crash.
Since we got information about his death, we have been
expecting his next of Kin to come over and claim his
money, because we can not release it unless somebody
applied for its next of Kin or Relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking procedure, but
unfortunately to no avail, and nobody has come forward
to claim the money (because the mentioned next of kin
which is Son died as well).
Therefore, upon this discovery I and other two
officials in my department now decide to establish a
cordial business relationship with you, hence my
contacting you. We want you to purportedly present
your good self as the next of Kin or relation of the
deceased so that we can prepare documentations and
release the funds (US$30,5 Million) into your account
for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is
coming f or it and again we do not want the funds to
go into the Governments account as "Unclaimed Bill".
The banking law and procedures herein stipulates that
any account abandoned or dormant for a period of some
years is subjected to be closed and all money
contained therein will be forfeited to the Government
Treasury Account. Now it is being speculated that the
above sum will be transferred into Government Treasury
Account as unclaimed funds on or before October 2004.
The reason for you to present your good self as the
next of kin in occasioned by the fact that the
deceased customer was a foreigner.
MODE OF SHARING: after the successful completion of
the transfer is as follows, for the role you will be
expected to play in the whole exercise, we have agreed
to give you twenty five (25%) of the total sum, and 5%
has been set aside for expenses we are going to
encounter by both parties in the process of this
transaction and the remaining 70% shall be for my
colleagues and I. In support of the aforementioned,
you are urged to reply this letter indicating your
readiness and interest to participate in the business.
After you reply, you will be advised on the next step
forward.
I quite believe that you will protect our interest by
keeping this business Top Secret and Confidential, as
your interest will be equally protected in order to
achieve and maintain maximum confidentiality. Trust to
hear from you on my private email address:
robert202@echina.com with my above phone number, I
count on your earliest response. Also provide me with
your contact telephone and fax number.
Sincerely Yours,
Mr. Robert Beaud.
