A Letter From Peter Wong

Yay, another mail sent to me today. Have a read and a laugh at this moron's email. He can't even get his own name right!

DEAR FRIEND,

I am Mr.paul leech Executive Director of the Hang Seng
Bank Ltd, taiwan.An Iraqi named Besem Faruak,
a business man made a numbered fixed deposit of
(126,336,8299.38 hk) for 18 calendar months, this is
valued to Eigth milion United State Dollars only in
my branch.

Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even
during the war,four years ago (2003). Again after the
war another notification was sent and
still no response came from him. We later found out
that Besem Faruak, and his family had been killed
during the war in Gunfire that hit their

home at Mukaradeeb where his personal oil well was.
After further investigation it was also discovered
that Besem Faruak,
did not declare any next of kin in his official
papers including the paper work of his bank deposit.
And he also confided in me the last time we was

at my office that no one except me knew of his
deposit in my bank. So, Eigth milion United State
Dollars is still lying
in my bank and no one will ever come forward to
claim it. What bothers me is that according to the
laws of my country

at the expiration five years six months the funds will
revert to the ownership of the hong kong Government if
nobody
applies to claim the funds.

My proposal, I am prepared to place you as the next of
kin in a position to instruct HANG SENG BANK to
release the deposit to you as the closest
surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am
prepared to share the money with you in half. That is:
I will simply nominate you as the
next of kin and have them release the deposit to
you. We share the procentange50/50.

I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released
to me, but that would have drawn a straight line in
my involvement in claiming the
deposit.I assure you that I could have the deposit
released to you within a few days.
I will simply inform the bank of the final closing
of the file relating to Besem Faruak, I will then
officially communicate with my
Bank and instruct them to release the deposit to
you. With these: all is done.

I am aware of the consequences of this
proposal.should be interested in executing this with
me;
indicate your interest by sending me the following:

1. YOUR NAME
2. YOUR RESIDENT ADDRESS
3. YOUR OCCUPATION
4. YOUR PHONE NUMBER
5. DATE OF BIRTH
6. COUNTRY OF RESIDENT

Your response with the requested information should be
sent to reach me at my personal email address below:
peterwong_4@yahoo.com.hk

I shall then provide you with more details on this
operation when I hear from you.

Sincerely,
Mr.peter wong

A Letter From Patrick W. Chan

Yes it is another in a sort of series of blog posts detailing some of the blatantly fraudulent junk mail that I routinely get sent. This one arrived in my Homail account today. Have a read and a good laugh. I know I did!

Mr. Patrick W. Chan
Email: patrickwkchan_015@yahoo.com.hk

Good Day,

I am Mr. Patrick W. Chan. Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have a concealed business suggestion for you.

Our client Gen. Samir Abi Rahman who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months before the U.S and Iraqi war, with a value of Twenty Four million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that the General along with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.

After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Samir Abi Rahman did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Twenty Four million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration 5 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Gen. Samir Abi Rahman so that you will be able to receive his funds.

MODALITIES:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful. I have an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen. Samir Abi Rahman. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval from my country’s probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an account that will be provided by you. There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents.

Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall then share in the ratio of 60% for me, 40% for you.

Should you be interested please send me your,
1, Full names,
2, private phone number,
3, current residential address,

and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this operation.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Mr. Patrick W. Chan.
