Am I the only one who is getting a ton of these emails lately::angry:

FROM: Liu Yan
Bank of China Ltd.
13/F. Bank of China Tower
1 Garden Road
Hong Kong,


I sincerely ask for forgiveness for I know this may seem like a complete
intrusion to your privacy but right about now this is my best option of
communication. This mail might come to you as a surprise and the
temptation to ignore it as frivolous could come into your mind; but please
consider it a divine wish and accept it with a deep sense of humility

This letter must surprise you because we have never meet before neither in
person nor by correspondence,but I believe that it takes just one day to
meet or know someone either physically or through correspondence.

I got your contact through my personal search, you were revealed as being
quite astute in private entrepreneurship,and one has no doubt in your
ability to handle a financial business transaction. I am Liu Yan a
transfer supervisor operations in investment section in Bank of China Ltd.
Secretariat of the BOCHK Charitable Foundation 13/F. Bank of China Tower,
1 Garden Road,Hong Kong I have an obscured business suggestion for
you.Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client General Mohammed Jassim Ali
who work with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed
deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of (I will disclose amount
upon your reply) in my branch.

Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even early in the war,again
after the war another notification was sent and still no response came
from him,We later find out that General Mohammed Jassim Ali and his family
had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.

After further investigation it was also discovered that General Mohammed
Jassim Ali did not declare any next of kin in his official papers
including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me
the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his
deposit in my bank. So, (I will disclose amount upon your reply) is still
lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What
bothers me most is that, according to the laws of my country at the
expiration 3 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong
Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.

Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a
foreigner to stand as the next of kin to General Mohammed Jassim Ali so
that you will be able to receive his funds.I want you to know that I have
had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful.

I have contacted an attorney who will prepare the legal documents that
will back you up as the next of kin to General Mohammed Jassim Ali, all
what is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your
Full Names, private phone number and Address so that the attorney can
commence his job. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney
will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary
approval and letter of probate in your favor for the transfer of the funds
to an account that will be provided by you with my guidance.There is no
risk involved at all in the matter as we are going 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 transferred to your nominated bank account we
shall discuss the percentage issue on your reply.

If you are interested please send me your full names and current
residential address, and I will prefer you to reach me on my private and
secure email address below and finally after that I shall provide you with
more details of this operation.

Best Regards

Liu Yan

OMG Craig you lucky bastage! Go for it dude! I got several of those a long time ago and deleted them because I thought they were a scam! Oh to have the fabulous opportunity that you have again would be just the bestest thing ever!
 
When did China annex Nigeria (or vice-versa)?
 
That is the worst scam I have seen, especially the part where it mentions that it does not know you.

I am getting several different ones similar to this everyday now for the last week!!
 
I got a few of those when I still used yahoo but since switching to gmail I never get any of that crap
 
Weird, I got the same thing some time ago, only it involved the foreign deposits of a defrocked prince from an African state that were going to revert in three years. Amazing that the same thing would happen with the Chinese deposits of an Iraqi Generalissimo. Maybe you can cut out the payment to the attorney by simply sending him your bank account number so he can make the deposit directly?
 
GG and I get over 20 of those a day. It is because our email address is listed on this site. But its okay.
 
it's like a game for us to see who can win more lotteries in one day. JB is right we must get at least 20 a piece each day.
 
CM-

As if I weren't ALREADY jealous ENOUGH of your handicap- NOW you're going to be a multi-millionaire too!! Some guys just have ALL THE LUCK! :at-wits-end:
 
I got one once that said a relative of mine died and left lots of money (i forget the amount) to no one and I was the closest next of kin. They would send me the money minus their "fee" for finding me. I deleted it because if it's my family I'm entitled to 100% of what they left right??

Sadly there are plenty of people that fall for this kind of stuff. Even though they talk about it on the news every now and then.
 
This is a scam?

Yes, they want your name and address or they want you email them to confirm your email address then they'll likely send you something saying you need to pay a certain amount to "process" the transaction.
 
Somebody recently died of a broken heart and left me $18 million.

What I don't get is that you guys all complain you get the breast enlargement emails. I just get the member enhancement ones. Frankly, I don't want all those satisfied women in bed with me.
