FROM: MR. ANTONINO BOSCO PRUDENTIAL FINANCIAL SERVICES LTD. Attention: My Good Friend, I feel quite safe dealing with you in this mutual beneficial transaction. Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, however, I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium of communication. I am MR. ANTONINO BOSCO, Executive Director incharge of Claims and Indemnity of PRUDENTIAL FINANCIAL SERVICES (PFS). I am contacting you based on Trust and confidentiality that will be attached to this deal for the benefit of both of us. By virtue of my exalted position, I was privileged to see in our archives the files of MR. RODNEY PATTERSON. He is a foreigner, unfortunately He is now late as he was amongst those that was Killed during the Tsunami Disaster (few years ago). This man deposited material (Stocks, Gemstone, Diamond and Gold) WORTH the sum of Forty Five Million United States Dollars (US$45,000,000.00) in our Security Company. As instructed in our Agreement with him, our company reserve the RIGHT to sell the shares (after five years) on his behalf and everything has been converted to cash. Right now, the fund is lying unclaimed in our custody and there is NO next of kin mentioned in his file. All efforts made by myself and colleagues to contact any of his relatives was proved abortive and unsuccessful. Hence, I want to favour you with this great opportunity. Upon my personal finding on this matter, I kept this information secret to myself until now that I am contacting you. In view of the fact that the deceased customer is a foreigner (from a different country), it is Officially important for the involvement of a foreigner who will be presented as the next-of-kin and the Funds/Consignment will be effectually transfered to your account. I will use my exalted position in this Security/Finance Company to present you as his Next of Kin because you can be his relative, friend or Cousin and the Money (US$45Million) will be Safely DELIVERED as CONSIGNMENT to your own address in your country. Relax, I will get all internal documentations legalized to back up the claims perfectly in your favour. The whole Procedures will take five (5) working days. Please I need the following details urgently: 1. YOUR FULL NAME:........................................................... 2. TELEPHONE NUMBERS:................................................... 3. HOME ADDRESS:.............................................................. 4. YOUR AGE AND OCCUPATION:.......................................... After successful conclusion of this transaction, we shall share the money 50-50 (50% for you and 50% for me). Considering my very strategic and influential position, I would want the transaction to be strictly confidential. I also want my identity to remain undisclosed to any third party at least for now, until the completion of the transaction, hence, my desire to have an overseas agent, I am therefore writing to inquire if you would agree to act as my overseas agent in order to actualize this transaction. There is absolutely NO risk involved. I AM WAITING TO RECEIVE YOUR POSITIVE REPLY URGENTLY TODAY. Kind Regards, MR. ANTONINO BOSCO Senior Director; PRUDENTIAL SECURITIES & FINANCE COMPANY (PSFC).
