Goodday,
I am David Palmer, staff of SMITH & WILLIAMSON Private Banking.
I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed
under our banks management three years ago.I would respectfully request that
you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of
the information you come by as a result of this mail.
I contacted you independently of our investigation 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.In 2000, the subject matter; came to our
bank to engage in business discussions with our private banking division. He
informed us that he had a financial portfolio of Thirty million united states
dollars,which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf.I was the
officer assigned to his case, I made numerous suggestions in line with my
duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the private banking sector,
especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We met on
numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged him to
consider various rowth funds with prime ratings.
The favored route in my advise to customers is to start by assessing data on
6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative
investments. Based on my advice, We spun the money around various
opportunities
and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the accrued
profit and interest stood at this point at over ten million United States
Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low
risk guaranteed returns on investments.
This bank also gives the choice to 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.We have
scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies
to get to the root of the problem. It is this investigation that
resulted in my
being furnished with your details as a possible relative of the deceased. My
official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the
investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation.
What this means, you being the last batch of names we have considered, is that
our dear late fellow died with no known or identifiable family member. This
leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing
situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the
deposit. According to practice, The Security Firm will by the end of this
financial year broadcast a request for statements of claim to SMITH &
WILLIAMSON,failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the
deposit back to SMITH & WILLIAMSON.This will result in the money entering the
SMITH & WILLIAMSON accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands
and out of the private banking division. This will not happen if I
have my way.
My proposal; you share the same surname With our late client; I am prepared to
place you in a position to instruct The security Firm to release the
deposit to
you as the closest surviving relation.Upon receipt of the deposit,I am
prepared
to share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate
you as the
next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds
50/50.I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me,
butthat would
have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit.
But on the other hand, you with the same very name as the original depositor
would easily pass as the beneficiary with right to claim. I assure you that I
could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform
the bank of the final closing of the file relating to the deceased I will then
officially communicate with The Security Firm and instruct them to release the
deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. The alternative would be
for us to have The Security Firm direct the funds to another bank with you as
account holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving
the money from The Security Company. We can fine-tune this based on our
interactions. I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that if
you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask
that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to
you,delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my
career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but
people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run
the whole private banking sector.
I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this
may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates
that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones' way once in a
lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total
control of my destiny. These chances wont pass me by. I ask that you do not
destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on
with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an
opportunity to provide them with new opportunities.There is a reward for this
project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the
risks and
the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my
bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed
you with a name that has planted you into the center of relevance in my
life.Lets share the blessing.If you find yourself able to work with
me, contact
me through this email account david_palmer012uk@yahoo.com.hk If you give me
positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to
inform you that should you contact me via official channels;I will
deny knowing
you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through
my official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official
email account. Contact me only through the numbers I will provide for you and
also through this email address. I do not want any direct link between you and
me. My official lines are not secure lines as they are periodically monitored
to assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality Management
Policy.Please observe this instruction religiously.
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 learnd
from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence.Kindly send your
response to my private email address david_palmer012uk@yahoo.com.hk
I await your response.
DAVID PALMER
