Jose Luis Carlos

 

Fraud.

One out of five!

Dear Friend,

I am Mr. Jose Luis Carlos who works in a reputable bank in Spain. I am the manager bills and exchange at the remittance department of La-Caixa Bank regional office Spain. I have a business proposal which I believe that will be a very good opportunity for both of us, that is why I have decided to contact you on this business opportunity in our bank. I discovered an abandoned sum of US$ 8 Million Dollars (Eight Million United States Dollars) in our safety deposit vault that belongs to one of our foreign customer that share the same family's name with you (American Nationality) who died along with his entire family on 12th July, 2004 in a ghastly motor accident along Barcelona express way.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money which is legally obtainable because the management can not release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. But unfortunately, I learnt that all his family died alongside with him at the motor accident leaving nobody behind for the claim as it's appear in our banking protocol that any such funds should be claim before five (5) years after the death of deceased customers.

I discovered that you have the same family's name with this deceased customer, you can easily make this deal with me and apply as family member (Cousin) since nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money to go into the banks treasury and declared to European Union Central Bank as unclaimed funds that is (Lack of supersede) instead its better for us to do the deal and share it equally.

For security reason, I have decided not to add more information into this letter but immediately you get back to me showing your interest, honesty and co-operation, I would be able to give you more detailed information on how to conclude this transaction.

I agreed that 40 % of this money will be for you as a foreign partner, in respect to your acceptance to do this business with me, 60 % would be for me and my family.

I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is a hitch free as all required arrangements have been made perfectly by me. At this moment you should feel free to contact me through this email ( joseluiscarlos2@gmail.com) as soon as you receive this letter. You should understand that it is my concern to demand your ultimate honesty, co-operation and this should be kept in strictly confidential between me and you as this is the only way we can achieve success.
I will level up the whole arrangements here in the bank through my department to enable you be approved to claim the money and transfer to your bank account.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Until I hear from you my dreams are resting squarely on your shoulders.

Best regards,

Jose Luis Carlos

Important Notes :-

1. Whatever you do, do not respond to any e-mail like this. If you have given bank details to any fraudster like this, then inform your bank immediately and also make sure that you close the account.

2. If the e-mail mentions a well known e-mail address such as from gmail.com, live.com, yahoo.com etc., then why not forward the offending e-mail to abuse@gmail.com, abuse@live.com etc. Hopefully, they'll remove the e-mail address, which will stop people being sucked in.
