Please Do NOT Delete Important Account Information

From: Mr Don Newport - linknewport@yahoo.co.uk

My name is Don Newport

I work with the mining finance debt. of Standard Bank of London.
http://www.sbl.co.uk/MiningMetals/Contacts.aspx

I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer regarding an investment
he placed under our bank management some years ago. I would respectfully
request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect
the integrity of the Information that comes by as a result of this mail.

We are contacting you independently of our investigations and no one is
informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain
facts that I believe would be of interest to you. We had a foreign
customer who deposited a huge sum of money with our bank, who was later
declared dead of a heart attack in Cannes, South of France.

Before his death, he had with our bank the sum of US$26.5M (TWENTY-SIX
MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED SATES DOLLARS). Immediately after his
death our bank immediately launched an investigation into possible
surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and also to come
forward to claim his estate/funds. If you are familiar with private
banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer
anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from conventional processes.

In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private
banking, opening an account with us means no one will know of its
existence, accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers
and codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank also gives the choice
for depositors of having their mail sent to them or held at the bank
itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account and as I said,
rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking clients apart from
not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in our
care, in this case; the deceased died without a testate.

In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed
away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who
should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for the past
months been unfruitful.

On this note, I and some officials who prefer not to be mentioned would
want you to apply to this bank as the next of kin.

We have earmarked a commission of 30% of the total amount for you. A
further 5% will be set aside to cover expenses on both sides, which will
include expenses incurred in processing this claim. The remaining 65% will
be ours. We want you to know that this business is hitch free and that you
should not welcome any fear as the whole required arrangement has been
made including all the entire legal documents.

I will advise you to please contact me on this Email:
donnewportinbiz@yahoo.co.uk as soon as you get this email for further
information.

As soon as I get your response I will forward you my contact telephone
number for easy communication.

Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send
you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences,
but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that
success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the
one truth I have learnt from my private banking clients. Do not betray my
confidence.

If we can be of one accord, I assure you that everything will be fine.

I await your prompt response.

Regards,

Mr. Don Newport
