Hello Mr. Joseph Huffman

I have been in search of someone with this last name "Huffman", so when I saw you online, I was pushed to contact you and see how best we can assist each other. I am Mr. Paul Chang, a Bank Officer here in U.S.A. I believe it is the wish of God for me to come across you now. I am having an important business discussion I wish to share with you which I believe will interest you, because it is in connection with your last name and you are going to benefit from it.

One Late Peter Huffman, a citizen of your country had a fixed deposit with my bank in 2005 for 120 calendar months, valued at US$60,000,000.00 (Sixty Million United State Dollars) the due date for this deposit contract was last 22nd of January 2014. Sadly Peter was among the death victims in the May 27 2006 Earthquake disaster in Java, Indonesia that killed over 5,000 people. He was in Indonesia on a business trip and that was how he met his end. My bank management is yet to know about his death, I knew about it because he was my friend and I am his account officer. Peter did not mention any Next of Kin/ Heir when the account was opened, and he was not married and no children. Last week my Bank Management requested that Peter should give instructions on what to do about his funds, if to renew the contract. I know this will happen and that is why I have been looking for a means to handle the situation, because if my Bank Directors happens to know that Peter is dead and do not have any Heir, they will take the funds for their personal use, so I don't want such to happen. That was why when I saw your name I was happy and I am now seeking your co-operation to present you as Next of Kin/ Heir to the account, since you have the same name with him and my bank head quarters will release the account to you. There is no risk involved; the transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of law. It is better that we claim the money, than allowing the Bank Directors to take it, they are rich already. I am not a greedy person, so I am suggesting we share the funds equal, 50/50% to both parties, my share will assist me to start my own company which has been my dream. Let me know your mind on this and please do treat this information as TOP SECRET. We shall go over the details once I receive your urgent response strictly through my personal email address.

We can as well discuss this on phone; let me know when you will be available to speak with me on Skype. Have a nice day and God bless. Anticipating your communication.

Respectfully & with Honor,
Paul Chang.
General Manager Human Resources
(Bank OF America)

Hello & Good day to you,
 
Thank you for your positive response. Please note  that all further correspondences between us must be via this  confidential email of mine. Also very importantly with a view to your question, be informed that Mr Peter died in an Earthquake disaster in Java, Indonesia in the year 2006. I will be sending you a copy of his death certificate which should be available to me by the lawyer who is to prepare all claims documents.

I want to begin by letting you know that I have the required experience to make this work. With absolutely no stress. All I need is for you to be trust worthy and also follow my instructions and advice as carefully as possible. Like I have indicated to you in my email to you, I urge that you keep every detail of this intended business to yourself as I still work for the bank. Even after the successful completion, details have to be kept discrete for the sake of the future. Let me use this opportunity to reassure you that this project is 100% legal, safe and risk free. Please know that only trust is the basic foundation for the success of this project as I do not know you nor do you know me. I have taken my time to outline details of this pending transaction of ours, and I need you to please study carefully and respond back with the required details which will enable me go ahead to have a local solicitor here begin to prepare all the required legal paperwork for the release of the funds in question.
With regards to taxes, be informed that at the point of transfer, a Tax waiver consent will be issued to reduce tax payment to the bearest minimum. However, I will be there to guide you through this process step-by-step. As per getting my funds to me, be informed that I intend to invest a bulk of my share of the funds in lucrative businesses in your country. For this I will need your partnership and guidance.
 
The coincidence with your last name has made it possible for us to come together and carry out this pending business transaction with a view to sharing some decent money. I have had to make out the time to outline the stages of this process so you can understand the picture of this transaction clearly. I want you to carefully study this email and reconfirm the details required so I can subsequently provide you with the required documentation that show proof of the deceased's funds.
 
ABOUT THE TRANSACTION
 
Like I explained to you in my letter, the funds are funds belonging to the mentioned and I was in charge of his account while he was alive. I facilitated his transaction with the named institution. Until his death he had no next of kin as he obviously did not envisage he was going to die soon. It is for this reason I have contacted you because you share the same last name with him and you would be able to assist me in receiving the funds after which we will share the proceeds equally once the transaction is complete(50/50). Note that my bank had mandated me with the responsibility of finding his next of kin and I have chosen you as the beneficiary as he left no next of kin when filling his account opening form years ago. By virtue of my position I have the authority to say who the right inheritor is and nobody can question my submission as I have decades of banking experience and I know the rules like the back of my hand and moreover I have been given that responsibility. It is important to note that if we do not act fast and claim these funds, it would be confiscated by the American Government. In these harsh economic times one cannot throw away an opportunity like this as it may never come again. We need to show courage and determination in order to achieve success in this transaction. We are not to be seen as two people who have any knowledge of one another or be seen to be having these conversations with each other. My only official knowledge of you should be seen to be the fact that your names and address were stated in documents which he had attested to as his next of kin.
 
WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE
 
At this stage I have exclusive access to the files of the deceased and I will be instructing a local solicitor here whom I have initially contacted to prepare all the documents in your name i.e. Affidavit of testament of WILL including probate letters stating you as beneficiary as well as next of kin and sole executor to his estate (which includes cash). This will then be put in his file and presented to my bank for verification and immediate action. Based on my ground work, the funds transfer to you will be approved and then authorization given to the holding Bank to make payment to you. The solicitor who is going to prepare the documents does not know the full details of the transaction as I have only informed him that I am helping a deceased clients' relative to pursue release of inheritance that is due to him. He has charged me a huge amount for his services and I intend to pay it so he can immediately prepare these documents and we can have this transaction commence without any further delays. I need you to follow and adhere to my every instruction and do exactly as I will advise for success to be gained. You must let me direct this project for us to achieve the step by step anticipated procedures to ensure success.This is not negotiable my friend as we go into partnership. It is when there is no leadership and no meeting of minds that there are problems in partnerships like this.
 
Everything is going to be done in sequence and I will imagine that the whole process should take about 2-4 weeks before money will be released to you. Please this is very important and your total commitment is what is desired. At this stage I will welcome any questions you have to ask so you understand the transaction to its fullest. We are going to take this matter on a step-by-step basis. However something that I must point out to you at this stage is that there is no wrong on your part. At the end of the day it is the bank that will be contacting you to inform you that money has been left for you, or similarly, if you contact the bank, they are the ones who will do their ground work, and then confirm that you are the right inheritor so you are doing absolutely nothing wrong or taking any risk as I solely bear all the risks. The only person who could have disputed this is long gone. You must understand why there must be serious confidentiality about this whole process as that is why I decided to contact you.
 
The payment institution deals with high net worth individuals and giant corporations. I have my contact there to make sure that nothing goes wrong. As soon as my bank has gone through all formalities with verification of documents which will be filed in on your behalf, they will instruct them to make payment to you. However as a foreign beneficiary, you most probably will be mandated to make a personal appearance at one of the payment institution's various payment centers around the world for a pre funds release physical endorsement exercise. The particular payment center where you will be required to make an appearance is designated according to your geographical location.
 
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
 
You shall be required to reconfirm some important details to me. These details are needed for the the preparation of all legal claims documents and the documentation process has to contain your correct and exact details as you want it in the documentation.
Your full names:
Mailing address:
Telephone number:
Fax number:
Current employment: 
Marital status:
Date of birth:
 
As soon as I have made the necessary amendments, you become the legal beneficiary and the bank will be liable to make payment to you after due verification. It is important you provide a complete information of yourself as they might contact you using any of these media and this is what the local solicitor is going to use to prepare the documents. He has assured me that the documents would be ready in less than 48-72 hours and once it is ready I would send copies to you via email attachment or fax. I will give you more details of the deceased in my next correspondence with you once I have received the required details. All further correspondence will be via this email account.
 
Respectfully & with Honor,
Paul Chang.

I want you to carefully study this email and reconfirm the details required so I can subsequently provide you with the required documentation that show proof of the deceased's funds.
 
ABOUT THE TRANSACTION
 
Like I explained to you in my letter, the funds are funds belonging to the mentioned and I was in charge of his account while he was alive. I facilitated his transaction with the named institution. Until his death he had no next of kin as he obviously did not envisage he was going to die soon. It is for this reason I have contacted you because you share the same last name with him and you would be able to assist me in receiving the funds after which we will share the proceeds equally once the transaction is complete(50/50). Note that my bank had mandated me with the responsibility of finding his next of kin and I have chosen you as the beneficiary as he left no next of kin when filling his account opening form years ago. By virtue of my position I have the authority to say who the right inheritor is and nobody can question my submission as I have decades of banking experience and I know the rules like the back of my hand and moreover I have been given that responsibility. It is important to note that if we do not act fast and claim these funds, it would be confiscated by the American Government. In these harsh economic times one cannot throw away an opportunity like this as it may never come again. We need to show courage and determination in order to achieve success in this transaction. We are not to be seen as two people who have any knowledge of one another or be seen to be having these conversations with each other. My only official knowledge of you should be seen to be the fact that your names and address were stated in documents which he had attested to as his next of kin.
 
WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE
 
At this stage I have exclusive access to the files of the deceased and I will be instructing a local solicitor here whom I have initially contacted to prepare all the documents in your name i.e. Affidavit of testament of WILL including probate letters stating you as beneficiary as well as next of kin and sole executor to his estate (which includes cash). This will then be put in his file and presented to my bank for verification and immediate action. Based on my ground work, the funds transfer to you will be approved and then authorization given to the holding Bank to make payment to you. The solicitor who is going to prepare the documents does not know the full details of the transaction as I have only informed him that I am helping a deceased clients' relative to pursue release of inheritance that is due to him. He has charged me a huge amount for his services and I intend to pay it so he can immediately prepare these documents and we can have this transaction commence without any further delays. I need you to follow and adhere to my every instruction and do exactly as I will advise for success to be gained. You must let me direct this project for us to achieve the step by step anticipated procedures to ensure success.This is not negotiable my friend as we go into partnership. It is when there is no leadership and no meeting of minds that there are problems in partnerships like this.
 
Everything is going to be done in sequence and I will imagine that the whole process should take about 2-4 weeks before money will be released to you. Please this is very important and your total commitment is what is desired. At this stage I will welcome any questions you have to ask so you understand the transaction to its fullest. We are going to take this matter on a step-by-step basis. However something that I must point out to you at this stage is that there is no wrong on your part. At the end of the day it is the bank that will be contacting you to inform you that money has been left for you, or similarly, if you contact the bank, they are the ones who will do their ground work, and then confirm that you are the right inheritor so you are doing absolutely nothing wrong or taking any risk as I solely bear all the risks. The only person who could have disputed this is long gone. You must understand why there must be serious confidentiality about this whole process as that is why I decided to contact you.
 
The payment institution deals with high net worth individuals and giant corporations. I have my contact there to make sure that nothing goes wrong. As soon as my bank has gone through all formalities with verification of documents which will be filed in on your behalf, they will instruct them to make payment to you. However as a foreign beneficiary, you most probably will be mandated to make a personal appearance at one of the payment institution's various payment centers around the world for a pre funds release physical endorsement exercise. The particular payment center where you will be required to make an appearance is designated according to your geographical location.
 
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
 
You shall be required to reconfirm some important details to me. These details are needed for the the preparation of all legal claims documents and the documentation process has to contain your correct and exact details as you want it in the documentation.
Your full names:
Mailing address:
Telephone number:
Fax number:
Current employment: 
Marital status:
Date of birth:
 
As soon as I have made the necessary amendments, you become the legal beneficiary and the bank will be liable to make payment to you after due verification. It is important you provide a complete information of yourself as they might contact you using any of these media and this is what the local solicitor is going to use to prepare the documents. He has assured me that the documents would be ready in less than 48-72 hours and once it is ready I would send copies to you via email attachment or fax. I will give you more details of the deceased in my next correspondence with you once I have received the required details. All further correspondence will be via this email account.
 
Respectfully & with Honor,
Paul Chang.
