Subject: Attention!!!
From: Mr.Peter T S Wong <info@tws.com.hk>
Reply-To: mr_peter_wongts01@hotmail.com

Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr.Peter T S Wong director of operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd in Hong Kong.I have an obscured business suggestion for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war one of our client Colonel Sadiq Uday who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of One hundred and twenty five million, seven hundred and fifty thousand U.S dollars only in my branch.

Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that the General along with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.

After further investigation it was also discovered that Colonel Sadiq Uday did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, One hundred and twenty five million, seven hundred and fifty thousand U.S dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it.

When I discovered he and his family is dead i had to look for a very reliable person who can stand as the Next of kin to that funds , so that the funds will be transfered out of the bank immediately. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration 5 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.

Please treat this business with utmost confidentiality and send me the following.

(1)Full names, (2)Private Phone number (3)Current residential address, (4)Occupation (5)Age and Proffession.

Therefore , if you know you are capable of involving in this mouth watering transaction, please send me an email to my Private email below, so that i will give you more details about this transaction and how we will successfully carry out this transaction without any risk involved.

My response:

I initially suspected this email to be a scam. Then I saw that you used not one, not two, but three(3) exclamation points in the subject of the email to accentuate the fact that this email requires my attention. I am now prepared to provide you any personal information you deem necessary, for I know you are legitimate.

thanks!!!

    Sadly for you, I happen to be the reincarnated long-lost son of Colonel Uday and will be heading over to retrieve our family fortune from Mr. Wong just as soon as I receive the funds from the Irish Sweepstakes I just won.

    No, this is the God-honest truth! The same thing happened to General al-Sayed Saddam.
