Yay! I'm going to be rich.

Just got this email. I can't believe how lucky I am. What should I buy?




Dear,

Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal Ethics. I introduce myself as Liam a staff in the accounts, management Section of awell-known bank here in the United Kingdom.

One of our accounts with holding balance of £15,000,000 (Fifteen Million British Pounds) has been dormant and last operated in the past 3 years.

From my investigations and confirmations, the owner of this account is a Foreigner by name Gerald Stone died on the 4th of January 2002 on a plane crash in Birmingham here in UK.

Since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money as he has no family
Member who is aware of the existence of either the account nor the Funds.

Information from the National Immigration also states that he was single on entry into the UK.
I have confidentiallyn discussed this issue with some of the bank officials and we have agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to deal with. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin of these funds from the deceased and funds released to you after due processes have been followed.

This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is Legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other Illegal act.

On your interest, let me hear from you.

Regards,
Liam.

Re: Yay! I'm going to be rich.

My reply:

Wow, that sounds awesome. I'll have my attorney look this over and if he thinks everything is good, then I would be glad to participate. I just have one concern, if you are from the UK, why was this email traced to:

Campbell, R E
146 Overlook Ct
Henderson, NV 89074-8316

I hope this isn't a scam because I could really use the money. I would even donate some to charity.

Regards,
Mark (get it? he's the scammer and I'm the mark...)





His reply:


Dear Mark,

Thanks for your response to my enquiry.My name is Liam Johnson, the Exchange Director of the Natwest Bank branch address at 5 The Mall, London Road, Swanley Kent BR8 7WL.Please be informed that for obvious reasons, this project MUST be handled with utmost regards, importance and confidentiality.

You would have to apply to the National Westminster Bank as the late customer next of kin/beneficiary for the release of the funds. A draft copy would be sent to you as a format for writing the application, which would be done on your personal or company letter headed paper and sent via email the to bank for approvals.

This is where I will come in, to facilitate the application processes and ensure that funds are approved for release in the shortest possible time.

I would appreciate if you let me know your thoughts about this and also confirm your willingness and ability to take part in this project adding also that this is an offer and acceptance criteria, it is no must we have to do this together.

The funds if approved are normally payable in United States dollars (for NON-UK residents only); this would amount to about US $27,000,000 (Twenty seven million United States dollars).

At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 30% of the total sum, 65% will be for us, 5% will be For expenses both parties might have incurred in the Course of this transaction.Depending on your response, I would either send you the draft application with instructions on how to move forward or close our discussions. Feel free to ask Questions (if any)

On your interest, let me have your full name and private/direct contact numbers including fax and a new emails address to keep this transaction confidential. I must be reached only on my private contact details for confidentiality Reasons.

I would not be able to discuss this subject in any official email/telephone lines as they are frequently monitored and recorded.

Regards,
Liam Johnson.





What should I write back?
