Good Day,
I am Mrs. Kate Walter. Deputy senior regional manager .at a Lloyds TSB Bank Plc. England. I
have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 2000, Mr. Barry Kelly
made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for forty-eight months, (being four years)
valued at Ј2,000,000.00, (Two Million British Pounds Sterling) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent
a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent
a reminder and finally we discovered from his employers, that Mr. Barry Kelly died from tsunami on
his holidays in Thailand 26 December 2006. On further investigation, I found
out that he died without making a (WILL), and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I further investigation and discovered that Mr. Barry Kelly did not declare any kin or relations
in all his official Documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of
Ј2,000,000.00 has carefully been moved out of my bank to a security company for Safekeeping .No one
will ever come forward to claim it. According to British Law, at the expiration of (three) years,
the money will revert to the ownership of the British Government if nobody applies to claim the
fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you to stand in as the owner of the money I deposited
it in a security company in two trunk boxes though the security company does
not know the contents of the boxes as I tagged them to be photographic materials for export. I am
writing you because I as a public servant (Manager with the bank), I cannot
operate a Foreign account or have an account that is more than $1m.I want to present you as the
owner of the boxes in the security company so you can be they can be able to move it to your
country where i can come and join you to initiate a suitable business we can invest this fund. If
you are interested, please reply immediately via my email address. Upon your response, I shall then
provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most
profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in (Buying of
properties like houses, hotels and doing charity works etc). Please do send me your private/mobile
telephone fax number so that we can have a smooth communication.
Thanks and regards.
Mrs. Kate Walter.
