Hsbc Bank of Malaysia email scam
Micheal Anene
Hsbc Bank of Malaysia
Kuala Lumpur
Dear Friend,
I am Micheal Anene, Ex Branch Manager HsbcBank of Malaysia. I have an
urgent and very profitable business proposition for you that should be
handled with extreme confidentiality. On January 12, 1997 a Consultant
and contractor with the British Water Corporation Mr.Jang Season by name
made a numbered time Fixed Deposit for twelve calendar months valued
at US$20.9M (Twenty Million, Nine Hundred thousand United States Dollars
Only) in my branch.
Upon maturity I sent a routine notification in accordance with the Bank
Policies to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month we
sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers
British Water Corporation that Mr.Jang, Seajoon died in the Korean Air
Flight {801}, which crashed in Guam, on August 6, 1997.
http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list on further
investigation, we found out that he died without making a Will and all
attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made
further investigations and discovered that Mr.Jang Seajoon did not declare
any next of kin or relations in his entire official documents including
his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$20.9M has been
carefully moved out of my bank to a Financial and Security Company for
safekeeping.
No one will ever come forward to claim it and according to the Law of
My country, at the expiration of 10 years the money will revert to the
Ownership of the British Government, if nobody applies to claim the
Fund. We decided to contact you to assist me receive his money for safe
Keeping and investments on his behalf as everything will be taken over by
the government as provided in section 129 sub 63(N), Asia Banking Edit
of 1961.This prompted us to contact you. We want to front you as the
next of kin of our late client thereby making you the legal beneficiary
of the sum of $20.9 million U.S Dollars that is presently in a Financial
and Security Company.
I contacted you because it is against the civil service code of ethics
to own and operate foreign accounts and your assistance would be needed
to claim the money in the Financial and Security Company The
Transaction is 100% legal and totally free of risks as all modalities has been
perfected to ensure the hitch free success of the transaction. Upon my
receipt of your reply confirming your willingness to assist me of this
transaction, I will immediately arrange and transfer all the rights of
ownership of this fund to your name to facilitate your easy clearance
and transfer of the complete funds to your country.
You have nothing to worry about, as I will be there to assist you in
anyway
necessary with all proper documentation. If you are interested, send
all possible suggestions and interest. Reply as soon as possible so that
we can proceed. Currently am residing in Singapore with my family under
asylum for security reasons
I Await Your Response Urgently.
Yours Faithfully,
Micheal Anene

and another one
FROM WILLY WILLIAMS
THE HEAD OF BILL AND EXCHANGE DEPT., AFRICAN
DEVELOPMENT BANK (ADB)
COTONOU, BENIN REPUBLIC, WEST AFRICA
TELEPHONE: 00229 97068111
STRICTLY PERSONAL
I know that this mail will come to you as a surprise as we have never met
before. My name is Willy Williams. I am the bill and exchange manager
in African Development Bank. I hope that you will not expose or betray
this trust and confidence that I am about to repose in you for the mutual
benefit of our families.
I am writing in respect of a foreign customer of our Bank (Mr Jang
Seajoon) who perished along with his next of kin with Korean Air Line,
flight number 801 with the whole passengers on 6th of august 1997 and for
your perusal you can view this site:
http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list
Since the demise of this our customer, I personally have watched with keen
interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has
come to claim his funds of US$35M (Thirty five million United States
Dollars) which has been with our branch for a very long time.
On this note, I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the
Next of Kin since nobody is coming for the fund again. The Banking ethics
here do not allow such money to stay more than 11 years, because the money
will be recalled to our Banks treasury as unclaimed fund after this
period.
In view of this, I contacted a friend of mine who works with the Chamber
of Commerce and Industries to assist me in getting a reliable and trusted
partner who would submit an application as the next of kin or business
partner to the late customer of the bank.
The reason for a foreigner in the business is for the fact that the
deceased man was a foreigner and it is not authorized by the law guiding
our Bank for a citizen of this country to make the claim of the fund.So
the request for you as a foreigner to come into the business is necessary,
it will facilitate the release and transfer of the funds smoothly to your
nominated bank account as the only surviving relation/partner to the
deceased.
If you can conveniently assure me of your ability to keep this business
very secret and confidential, you can write back to me giving me your
telephone/fax numbers so that I can send to you the specimen application
for claims which you have to send to our bank. Please, note that upon the
successful transfer of the funds to your bank account, you shall be
entitled to 30% of the total funds while the rest will be given to me on
arrival in your country.
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is risk free
and doesn’t have any negative implication. You should not entertain any
fear as all modalities for the smooth and easy transfer of this fund have
been finalized. This transaction will be completed within 14 bank working
days immediately we start the business.
Waiting for your urgent response and please kindly delete if you are not
interested.
Regards,
Willy Williams
