From: Mr.Tim J W Tookey Group Finance Director of Lloyds Banking Group 25 Gresham Street, London EC2V 7HN www.lloydsbankinggroup.com timjwt92@yahoo.co.uk Good day, I am Mr. Tim J W Tookey, the Group Finance Director of Lloyds Banking Group. I personally discovered a dormant account with a total sum of $85,000,000.00 [EIGHTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS] during our Bank's Annual Year Account Auditing. Since the death of the deceased, nobody has operated in this account till date. Moreover, this account has NO BENEFICIARY attached to it. Definitely, this fund will be confiscated by our BANKING CODE OF ETHICS if it remains dormant for a period of [10] year without any claims. In this regard, I earnestly need your full cooperation in transferring this money out of our bank to avoid our bank confiscating this fund. HOW THE TRANSACTION CAN BE HANDLED: As the group finance director of our bank, all our client account details and file are in my possession and that makes it easy for me to include your name as the beneficiary of the fund in all necessary documents involving the money we wish to transfer out from our bank. Most importantly, you will be required to: (1). Act as the original beneficiary of the funds. (2). Receive the funds into a business/private bank account. (3). At the completion of this transaction, the sharing rates shall be 50% for me while 50% for you. Note: I will split the transfer into two 2 stages for easy and smooth transfer. Firstly, the sum of $80,000,000.00 will transfer to any valid foreign account you will nominate, then upon a successful transfer without any disappointment from our side; I will then fly to meet you in your home destination for sharing, thereafter we will jointly transfer the remaining balance of $5,000,000.00. I will also like us to invest some part of the money in your country. If you accept to work with me, you will be given 50% of the total money as your share and 50%. So the main question is, will you partner me in this transaction. If you are willing to cooperate in this project, Kindly view my identification link: http://www.lloydsbankinggroup.com/about_us/directors/executive_directors.asp#timtookey I AWAIT YOUR URGENT REPLY. Yours Truly, Mr. Tim J W Tookey timjwt92@yahoo.co.uk
