Good day,

My name is Aidan Merlin, trained and working as Account Officer for
the Development Bank of Singapore (DBS). As regard this project, I had
taken pains to find your contact through personal endeavours.

I write to contact you about a Foreigner who died here in Singapore,
Twenty-two years ago leaving behind an estate/capital (US$12.8M with
interest) here in
Development Bank of Singapore (DBS) where I work till date, but nobody
has come forward or put an application for the claim. I feel it is
very important I include the websites of the unfortunate incident for
you to view, which claimed the life of the late investor.

http://www.mindef.gov.sg/imindef/about_us/history/maturing_saf/v05n03_history.html.print.html?Status=1
http://infopedia.nlb.gov.sg/articles/SIP_783_2004-12-31.html

I can confirm with certainty that the said Investor died intestate in
1986 and no next-of-kin to his estate and no body came forward all
these years. I am of the
settled conviction that using my insider leverage and working with
you, we can secure the funds in the account for ourselves instead of
allowing it pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the Government
of Singapore.

In pursuant of the above plan, we choose you in this transaction
specially because you bear the same NAME with the said Investor.
However you shall be handsomely rewarded for your assistance and
co-operation in this transaction; as my colleagues and I have
collectively agreed to allocate 20% of the total funds for your role.

However, if you are interested in carrying out this deal, you are
advised to email me the following information as stated below so that
we can immediately commence on the process on how the funds will be
released to you as the Next of Kin.

i. RE-CONFIRM YOUR FULL NAMES:
ii. CONTACT ADDRESS:
iii. DATE OF BIRTH:
iv. TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBER:
v. OCCUPATION:

Thanks for your anticipated co-operation and I urgently wait to hear from you.

Best regards,
Aidan Merlin

With this story, they start off by saying you get the cash card if you pay a “reactivation” fee of 135 US Dollars. Now I’ve seen that somewhere before.

Oh yes, it was the 135 US Dollar shipment fee for FEDEX.

Anybody know what Mrss. means? It could be it’s a new title like Mister. Or maybe it’s just a spelling mistake.

Other than further spelling mistakes, it’s interesting to note the use of “Evangelist”. Here in Europe or the US titles like this are not used. Maybe in Africa it is used similarly to Reverend or Pastor. Whatever the case, using this title is designed to give the message a trustworthy note. The crux of the matter is the question “Would you give a stranger with a religious title more trust than someone without a title?”.

From the Desk of:
Mr. Odili Victor

I am a Manager of a bank, writing you in respect of a foreign customer whom made a US$25M depository for an investment program that has remained dormant for years now. I discovered that the account holder died without making a WILL on depository.

This money cannot be approved to a local Bank account holder, but can only be approved to a foreigner. if you will stand as next of kin to the fund, it will be shared 50%/50%. as this is a TWO-man business deal transaction. Your percentage will also be a source of up-liftment. You have absolutely nothing to LOSE in assisting me instead, you have so much to GAIN. Be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us.

I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. I need your assistance and co-operation to this reality as I have done my Home-work and fine tune the best way to create you as the beneficiary while I would use my connection and money to secure almost all the paperwork for this transaction which will be done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction with you as the beneficiary to this fund.

I will like you to provide immediately your full Names and Address, Date of Birth, Occupation, Tel & Fax Numbers so that an Attorney will be able to prepare the necessary documents and affidavit which will put you in place as the next of kin. The Attorney will draft and carry  out the notarization of the WILL and also obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favour for the transfer.

I will appreciate your early reply for commencement of business. Contact me for acknowledgment by E-mail and whereby you are not interested, please indicate in your reply so that I can seek for the assistance of someone else.

If this proposal is acceptable by you, I expect that you will not take undue advantage of the trust I Will bestow in you. I await your urgent response.

Thanks with great regards.
Mr. Odili Victor
