Attn:
Compliments of the day
I
am a staff of Lloyds TSB Group, South Africa attached to the Private
Banking Services. I am contacting you concerning a customer and an
investment placed under our banks’ management few years ago. I
contacted you independently I believe it will be of
interest to you. In 2000, the subject matter; ref: bb/tsb/bank/73 came
to our bank to engage in business discussions with our Private Banking
Services Department. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio
of 20,500,000.00 million United States Dollars, which he wished
to have us turn over on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his
case and I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the
de-facto chief operations officer of the Private Banking Services
Department, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into
our bank. I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with
prime ratings. Based on my advice, we spun the money around various
opportunities and made attractive margins.
In mid 2004,
he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an
urgent investment in Europe and had it deposited with a firm in Europe.
I informed him that our bank would have to make special arrangements to
have this done and in order not to circumvent due process as Cash
movement across borders has become especially strict since the incident
of 9/11. I contacted our affiliates in Europe. I undertook all the
processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the
letter and had the funds deposited in a security consultancy firm here
in South Africa first of all. The firm is a specialist private firm
that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip
corporations that handle valuable products or undertake
transactions that need immediate access to cash. In line with
instructions, the money was deposited. He told me he wanted the money
there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week.
This
was the last communication we had and it transpired around 25th
November 2004. In June last year, I received a call from the security
firm informing me of the inactivity of that particular portfolio. This
was an astounding position as far as I was concerned. I made futile
efforts to locate him without success days later; information came in,
that died of a heart attack in Cannes, South of France. I
immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of
kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his
fund. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who
patronize our services usually prefer not only 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 requires that our bank shall divulge no
information of its existence and accounts are rarely held under a name.
Depositors usually use numbers and codes to make the accounts seem
anonymous ensuring that there are no traces of the accounts.
There is US$ 20,500,000.00 deposited, I alone have the deposit details
and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to
do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as the
finance firm is concerned, the transaction with our deceased customer
was concluded when I sent the funds to the firm. All outstanding
interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due
process. The security firm has no single idea of what's the history or
nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting instructions to release
the deposit to any party that comes forward. This is the situation.
MY
PROPOSAL: I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct the
finance firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving
relation. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin
and have them release the deposit to you. I would have gone ahead to
ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight
line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. But on the other
hand, you as a foreigner would easily pass as the beneficiary with the
rights to claim.. I will officially communicate with the security
company and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With
these things: all is done.
This may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move.
Contact
me through the above info and if you give me positive signals, I will
initiate this process towards a conclusion. Please observe these
instructions religiously. If we can be of one accord, we should plan a
meeting, soon.
I wait for your urgent response please.

It's important to note that
any real people and / or legitimate
organizations whose actual names or other details appear in
these scam e-mails have absolutely no
connection
with this scam!
Scammers never use their real
names.
They frequently take on the identity of real people to help make themselves and their scam appear legitimate.

This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419BAITER
headquarters. It is 100% pure B.S. Purity Guaranteed!
There are many different types of 419 scam (examples)
but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary /
commision,
low-interest loan, lottery prize,
bargain gold dust / diamonds,
work visa, etc.) in return
for a small 'fee' or some kind of remittance. Of course, there is no
fortune, no job, no loan, no prize to be had. It's just a ploy to get
you to
willingly send them money.

section.
NOTE TO
DUMBASS SPAMMERS:
My scam e-mail filtering system is pretty good
but it isn't perfect.
Occasionally a regular spam e-mail will get mistakenly published here
as
a
419 scam. This is inadvertent. If you are a spammer and you don't wish
to have your crap mistakenly published on this website as a
419
advance fee
scam, the solution is
simple. Don't mail your crap to harvested e-mail
addresses.
