There is no account waiting to be plundered. And he’s talking rubbish saying the account will be written off. That does not happen in inheritance cases. The  money stays where it is, until the real next of kin is found.

Dear Friend,

I am Mr. David Harrington, an accountant with a commercial bank here in London.

I discovered recently that one of our customers who died in a plane crash years ago has no next of kin at all to claim GBP5.5 million he deposited in our bank so many years since his death. The money will be written off and sent to her majesty’s treasury and banks treasury as well if nobody comes to claim it in the next 30 days. The bank just issued the circular for the last time.

Since i have all the documents available for the claims as i was the account officer who assisted him when he opened the FIXED DEPOSIT INSURED ACCOUNT with us then, I decided to solicit your assistance to stand as the next of kin so that you can apply for claims to the bank for them to approve it to you for further transfer to your account. After the approval and the funds confirmed into your account I will take a leave and come over to your country so that we can disburse the funds. 60% for me and 40% will be for you. The website link below authenticates the validity of this saddening information.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm

There is no risk involved at all as I will back you up legally here through the judiciary since I know the procedure already. It is a very common practice/deal here and so many lawyers and bank here in Britain and any other part of the world including your country makes their money through this means. This time is now my opportunity and I do not wish to miss it as I may not be opportuned again in life. If I do not use this opportunity my bank or the government will surely convert the funds as theirs. Go through the another web link below to view list of unclaimed estates and inheritance here in United Kingdom and what has been happening. (www.bbc.co.uk/heirhunters)

Please get back to me through my confidential email: davidharr008@gmail.com for more clarification so that we may start off immediately. But if after reading this mail and you don’t want to partake in it do please pretend as if you did not read it and do not disclose it to another person considering the sensitive nature so that you don’t spoil my chances of making use of this God’s given opportunity and wealth as it has been prayer.

I await your quick response immediately.

Yours Sincerely,
Mr. David Harrington

Now this one is really interesting. Why would would anyone want to cash in a bank draft and deposit the money with a parcel express company?

(Does he mean UPS?)

At the best, this is a very dubious story.
