Dear Friend,

Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics.I will introduce myself as Mr.Larry Cage, A staff in the accounts management section of a well-known bank here EFG PRIVATE BANK ,in the United Kingdom .One of our accounts with holding balance of 3,000,000 (Three Million British Pounds) has been dormant and has not been operated for the past 4 years. From my investigations and confirmations, the owner of this account a foreigner by name Austin Martins died in August 4th 2004 and since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money because he has no family members who are aware of the existence of neither the account nor the funds.

Also Information from the National Immigration states that he was also single on entry into the UK.I have secretly discussed this matter with some of the bank officials and we have agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to deal with. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin of these funds from the deceased and funds released to you after due processes have been followed.

This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is a legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act On your interest, let me hear from you by indicating in your response with your direct telephone numbers,your contacts address,your age and occupations foward them via my Private email address where you can reach me Email:larrycage@live.com

Regards,

Mr. Larry Cage

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.
