Hello,
I am a, staff of Private Banking Services at the Bank of
China (BOC). I am contacting you concerning our customer and, an investment
placed under our banks management 8 years ago.
I would respectfully request that you keep the contents
of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come
by as a result of this mail. I contacted you independently of our investigation
and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with
certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you.
In 2005, the subject matter; ref: bb/boc/bank/0019 came to our bank to engage in business
discussions with our Private Banking Services Department. He informed us that
he had a financial portfolio of 8.370 million United States Dollars, which he
wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf.
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 Private Banking Services Department, especially given the volume of funds
he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous occasions prior to any
investments being placed. I encouraged him to consider various growth funds
with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to customers is to start by
assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers
of alternative investments. Based on my advice, we spun the money around
various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of
operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over 10
million United States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the
fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments.
In mid 2006, he asked that the money be liquidated
because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in
Europe. He directed that I liquidate the funds and had it deposited with a
firm. I informed him that the bank would have to make special arrangements to
have this done and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have
to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory
charges. He complained about the charges but later came around when I explained
to him the complexities of the task he was asking of us. Cash movement across
borders has become especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted
my affiliate in and had the funds available. I undertook all the processes and
made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds
deposited in a security consultancy firm, the firm is a specialist private firm that accepts
deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or un
In January last year, we got a call from the security
firm informing us that the inactivity of that particular portfolio. This was an
astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I managed
the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit , and
I could not understand why he had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made
futile efforts to locate him I immediately passed the task of locating him to
the internal investigations department of the bank of china. Four days later,
information started to trickle in, apparently he was dead. A person who suited
his description was declared dead of a heart attack in Canne, South of France.
We were soon enough able to identify the body and cause of death was confirmed.
The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of
kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his estate.
If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer ano
In line with our internal processes for account holders
who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to
determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for
the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used our
private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem.
The investigation did not ever yield any result My official capacity dictates
that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to
receive the results of the investigation.
This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the
prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of
the deposit. According to practice, the firm will by the end of this financial
year broadcast a request for statements of claim to BOC, failing to receive
viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to BOC. This will
result in the money entering the BOC accounting
system and the portfolio wi
What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical
practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an outsider to the
banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world
aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge
rewards for those who occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios.
You should have begun by now to put together the general direction of what I
propose. There is US$ 8,370,000.00 deposited , I alone have the deposit details
and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I
alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as BOC is concerned, the
transaction with our deceased customer concluded when I sent the funds to the
firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer
services and due process. They are
simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that comes
forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to trac
My proposal; I am
prepared to place you in a position to give instruction for the release of
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.
I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to
me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in
claiming the deposit. I assure you that I could have the deposit released to
you within a few days. I will simply inform the bank of the final closing of
the file relating to the customer I will
then officially communicate with
firm and instruct them to release
the deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. The alternative would
be for us to have firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account
holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money
from the firm. We can fine-tune this
based on our interactions.I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I
ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this
mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no
appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not
destroy my career because you do not
approve of
You may not know this but people like myself who have
made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking
sector. I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good
conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my
industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones' way
once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself
in total control of my destiny. These chances won't pass me by. I ask that you
do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me
move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an
opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this
project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the risks and
the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my
bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you
with a name that has planted you int
If you find yourself able to work with me, contact me
through this same email account. If you give me positive signals, I will
initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that should
you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and about this
project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone
lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official email account.
Contact me only through through this email
address. I do not want any direct link between you and me. My official lines
are not secure lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of
customer care in line with our Total Quality Management Policy. Please observe
this instruction religiously. Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a
wife and children.
I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to
what the consequences, 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, please reply me immediately
to enable us commence this line of discussion.
I await your response.
Kim Wie
