I am Mr. Bob Chen of The Bank of East Asia Limited, Hacienda Heights Branch, California USA) I am contacting you based on Trust and confidentiality that will be attached to this transaction. The Management and the Legal department of our bank (THE BANK OF EAST ASIA LIMITED) in a recent meeting recommended that the account of MR.

He died in world trade center as a victim of the September 11,2001 incident that befall the United States of America.

JAMES D.CLEERE is an account holder in my branch; he owns a dollar account with the sum of US$58.2M (Fifty Eight Million, two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) deposited in a Secret account with my branch. In fact, since his death, no next of kin of the account holder (the brother) nor any relative of him has shown up for the claim this is because he has the account as a secret account thus he left all the documents for the deposit with me. This is where I am interested and where I want you to come in. I want you to come in as the relation of the deceased; I will give you the relevant documents and contacts to file the application and then effect the approvals for the transfer of the money, I will be the one to provide the vital documents for the claims of the money and then advise you exactly how we should handle it.

We will use our positions to get all internal documentations to back up the claims. Do not be bothered that you are not related in any way to him as I am in position to affix your name as the next of kin. The whole Procedures will last only 7 working days to get the fund retrieved successfully without trace even in future. After the transfer of the money we shall share the money 60-40, that is I will have 60% while you will have 40%. Kindly respond promptly so that I can advice you on the next step to follow. I will be waiting to hear from you. Yours truly,Bob ChenThe Bank of East Asia Limited

Ha but you are a lucky man anyway Stewart
I got a letter a few weeks ago from the 'European Lottery' saying, that I was one of six people who had a share in something like €40 +m, and all I had to do was supply my name, address, telephone no, mobile no, bank account and sort code detail, and I think from memory my passport number. I wonder how many people were taken in by this attempt at identity theft?
if you love the life you live then you'll get a lot more done
Ok the point here is its a pile of *******s and all I want to do is get the guy to go on you tube , wearing a bright green hat and holding a carrot and wearing a tee shirt saying plonker... too prove his identity
However I did know someone lose £17,000 to a Nigerian syndicate and I would hardly call her gullible. She got the money back so dont know the full details (it was via e-bay)
I guess the point is you dont give away money or private info
Is there not anything that can be done with things like this.
Danny is trying to sell his car (scarface) as he is getting a company one. Its advertised on autotrader. He keeps getting these emails from people all over the place, really weird ones saying they want the car and they have to get it shipped to them, please send all info so they can pay bankers draft immeidately and leave the rest to them.. Its unreal.
I dont know what they can benefit from having that information though. Any ideas?
Well more fool you lot ... I responded and have just bought an Aston Martin convertible with the proceeds and had a proposal of marriage accepted by a member of Girls Aloud, admittedly it was the ugly ginger one
unfortunately its a lot easier to use the details of your banks than you would think
about a year ago i noticed several debits made on an account that i only ever used for my mortgage over a period of a week
Obviously i called the bank immediately and got my card canceled
It turned out that the police feel that the people using my account had bought the information (including name address card number and the security number on the back of the card) from eastern Europeans working at a Clacton call center, although this was never proved as the bank did everything they could to stop the police investigation
As the bank paid all the funds back into my account it turns out i am not the victim (even though it feels like i am) but the bank was therefore i couldn't push the police to do anything
