WOODLAND FINANCE AND TRUST COMPANY LTD.LONDON-U.K
I am Mr Richard Martins, the Auditor General, woodland
Finance and trust Limited UK. In the course of my auditing, I
discovered a floating fund in an account which was opened in
1990 belonging to a dead foreigner Late Mr. K. P. Ong who died
in 1999. Every effort made to track any member of his family or
next of kin has since failed; hence I got in contact with you
to stand as his next of kin.
He died leaving no heir or a will.My intention is to transfer
this sum of $15.5M in the aforementioned account to a safe
account overseas. I am therefore proposing that you
quietly partner with me and provide an account or set up a new
one that will serve the purpose of receiving this fund. For
your assistance in this venture, I am ready to part with a good
percentage of the entire funds.
After going through the deceased person's records and files, I
discovered that:
(1) No one has operated this account since 1999
(2) He died without an heir; hence the money has been floating.
(3) No other person knows about this account and there was no
known beneficiary.
If I do not remit this money urgently, it would be forfeited
and subsequently converted to company's funds which will
benefit only the directors of my firm. This money can be
approved to you legally as with all the necessary documentary
approvals in your name. However, you would be required to show
some proof of claim which I will provide you with and
also guide you on how to make your applications.
Do give me a reply so that I can send you detailed information
on the modalities of my proposition. I completely trust you to
keep this proposition absolutely confidential.
Please forward to me on acceptance of this proposal,your
private telephone and fax number including the country code and
area codes, your complete names,and private email address for
effective communication.
