I am Mr. Alexander A. Flockhart, Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Hang Seng Bank, Ltd. I have a business proposal for you. Before the U.S.-Iraq War, our client, Colonel Hosam Hassan of the Iraqi forces, was also a businessman who made a number of fixed deposits with a total value of thirty million U.S. dollars in our bank. Upon maturity, several notices were sent to him, even during the war early this year.
Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that Col. Hosam Hassan, along with his wife and only daughter, had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration date of 4 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim it.
Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is to stand as the next of kin to Col. Hosam Hassan so that you will be able to receive his funds. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary documents that will back you up as the next of kin to Col. Hosam Hassan, There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the
necessary documents.
Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been translated to your bank account we will share split 60% for me and 40% for you. Please provide:
1. Full name and age
2. Private phone number
3. Current residential address.
Finally, I shall provide you with more details on this transaction. Your earliest response to this letter will be highly appreciated.
