HALIFAX BANK
Regional Office, South Quay Plaza
Warsh Wall, SR London.


Dear KENNETH


I am Mr John Coker Accounting officer with Halifax Bank
Plc, London.
I have urgent and very confidential business proposition
for you.
On June 6, 2004, a foreigner Oil consultant/contractor
with the Shell Petroleum Corporation, Mrs. Ann Barbara
Myers made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve
calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty- five
Million Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a
routine notification to her forwarding address but got no
reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we
discovered from her contract employers, Shell Petroleum
Corporation that Mrs. Ann Barbara Myers died from an
automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out
that she died without making a WILL, and all attempts to
trace her next of kin were fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that
Mrs. Ann Barbara Myers did not declare any kin or
relations in all his official documents, including his
Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of
US$27,500,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the
interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at
the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to
claim it and according to British Law, at the expiration
of 5 (five) 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 as a
foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mrs. Ann
Barbara Myers so that the fruits of this woman's labor
will not get into the hands of British government
officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide
immediately your full names and address so that it will be
forwarded to the bank which will put you in place as the
next of kin.for the transfer to take place. A bank account
in of your choice in any part of the world, which you will
provide, will then facilitate the transfer of this money
to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be
paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 60%
for me and 40% for you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be done as the Manager guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction. If you are
interested, please reply immediately .
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more
details and relevant documents that will help you
understand the transaction.Include your telephone and fax
number if you are interested so that we can commence.
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 your country.
Awaiting your urgent reply on my email address.

Thanks and regards.

Mr John Coker

They've joined the Iraqis as well:

Dear Sir,

Though this letter may come to you as a surprise, with due respect and
trust, I am writing this letter to you irrespective of the fact
that you do not know me, but please do consider this letter as a mutual
business proposal and hope you will assist based on the
reality of this transaction

I am Mr. Abdullah Alqassab, the son of Late Nasir Alqassab. My father was
killed by a terrorist group that is operating in my country.
Before my father was killed, he was a local oil servicing contractor.
During the peak of the war, my father made an arrangement for
us to be evacuated to Syria with a CERTIFICATE OF MONEY DEPOSITE he made
with a financial firm. I came back to Iraq for the
burial of my father, and since then was unable to go back to Syria

I got your email address through search in the Internet. I hope in the name
of ALLAH that I have the right person who will assist me.
I am writing you in absolute confidence primarily to seek your assistance
to transfer our cash of Fifteen Million Dollars
(US$15,000.000.00) cash bond concealed and secured in Two treasure trunk
boxes which is now safely secured in the vault of a
Security brokerage Firm .The said Security Finance Company also has
branches in Europe and Canada whereby the money can also be secured.

You will help us collect the funds from the Security Company as I cannot
travel out from Iraq at the moment because of certain
conditions which I will explain to you latter if we work together(my
traveling documents are not yet complete). The fall of Saddam Hussein
has brought destruction / Hell to our great country and everything is
practically difficult now and opportunities
are closing up, the new government is trying to frustrate our businesses.

Please if you accept this offer of assistance you are required to give me
your Name, age, occupation, address also enclosing your
telephone fax numbers so that I will forward your details to the finance
firm as our next of kin, relation or business associate of my late father
that will act on our behalf. I will also send you the CERTIFICATE OF
DEPOSITE

What I now need from you are as follows:

1. For you to travel to the Security Company to secure the funds in cash on
our behalf and open a Bank account in your country
for me with the credentials I will give you.


2. You will be entitled to 30% of the total sum involved for your
assistance.

3. As soon as you confirm to me by e-mail your readiness to travel to the
Security Company, I will send the detail information regarding the deposite

5. Please note that this project is 100% risk free but you must keep it
very secret and confidential with strong assurance that you
will not let me down at all. If this proposal is accepted by you, kindly
contact me through my private Email ([email protected])


I expect your prompt reply.

Regards,

Abdullah Al-qassab

Heh, and I bet there's someone out there that would accept these emails and reply to them with all sorts of details.

The reason I post these, (and new phishing scams as well) is not so much for us as it is for those that are new or that know others that could be tricked by this.

I have friends and family members that aren't as aware of all the things that go on, so I fwd this stuff to them with a big heads up warning.

It is a Public Service Announcement. (sort of)
