I am sorry to contact you through this medium. I am Mr. Abdul Hamid Mohammed Saeed, Managing Director and Board Member of First Gulf Bank here in UAE .
I write you this proposal in good faith hoping that I can rely on you. In 2007, one Mr. Omar B. xxx, who has same surname as yours and who has your country in his file as his place of origin, made a fixed deposit for 36 calendar months, valued at $36,400,000.00 with my bank. I was his account officer before I became the Managing Director and Board Member of my Bank now. The maturity date for this deposit contract was 16th of October 2010. Unfortunately, while on a business trip, he died in a deadly earthquake that occurred on 12 January 2010 in Haiti which killed between 250,000 and 300,000 people.
Since the last quarter of 2010 until today, the management of my bank has been finding a means to reach him so as to ascertain if he will want to roll over the contract or have the deposited amount withdrawn.
Since September 2010, when I discovered that this will happen , I learnt of his death ,so I have tried to think up a procedure to preserve this fund and use the proceed for charity. Some directors here have been trying to find out from me the information about this account and the owner, but I have kept it closed because, I know that if they become aware that Mr. Omar is now late, they will embezzle the funds for themselves.
Therefore, I am seeking your co-operation to present you as the one to benefit from his fund at his death since you have the same name, so that my bank head quarters will pay the funds to you.
I have done enough inside bank arrangements and will only have to put in your details into the bank’s database to reflect you as his next of kin.
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 a charity organization to help the poor and also own a 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: abdulhamid_saeed@hotmail.com
Have a nice day, and may GOD bless you.
Anticipating your response.
