Dear Matthew Wang,

I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer and an investment I placed for him in a bank some years ago.

The funds in question belong to late Dr Thomas Wang, the content of this communication has to be treated with utmost confidentiality, to avoid unnecessary complications. I contacted you independently out of my investigation and no one is informed of this communication, I would like to intimate you about certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you. I got your contact through a private search.

The amount is $13,7 million.(Thirteen Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars) For your information I will appreciate it if we don’t involve a third party. I have a lawyer that will do the documentation process so you have nothing to worry about. I am taking this step because if this transaction comes to the knowledge of the authorities, the funds will automatically be redirected to the UK Government treasuring account and tagged as UNCLAIMED FUND and I am sure you know what that means.

I was the officer assigned to his case, I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the retail and business banking sector, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our investment. We met on numerous occasions and discussed viable investment opportunities. I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. I invested his funds into trading in Stock Market, Crude Oil and Lending with Profit Returns, as my specialty is to advise customers to invest healthy and yield good profit. Based on my advice, we spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first year of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood out and my client was glad with the returns. In mid-2014, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent Crude Oil investment requiring cash payments in the Middle east. He directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it with a security firm in a private Bank. I am prepared to share the money with you in half.

The Bank has no single idea of the history or nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that comes forward. This is the situation. The bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track the deceased Client family, they have investigated for months and have found no family. The investigation has come to an end. My proposal, you share similar details to the late fellow, I am prepared to place you in a position as the Next of Kin to the Private Bank to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half. That is, I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 50/50.

The fund will be taken by the government and someone else with high power will eventually take the money, the money will be of good use for me and you if we work together on this.

Please observe this instruction religiously. Please again, note I am a family man, I have a wife and 2 children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences are, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence if we can be of one accord.

I trust that you understand what I am trying to say and I will be hoping to read back from you soon.

Kindly revert back to me.

Best Regards,

Antony P. Jenkins
