Hello Dear, I am Dr Harry Medua, An Internal auditing officer of the Bank of England. I am contacting you Concerning a deceased customer and an investment he Placed under our banks management years ago. In 2000, the subject Matter; came to our bank to engage in business Discussions with our private banking division. He Informed us that he had a financial portfolio of ($10,000,000 USD)(TEN MILLION UNITED STATE DOLLARS)which he wished to have us turn over (invest)on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case. 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 ($12.2 million United States Dollars),TOTAL AMOUNT ($12,200,000 USD). He directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it with a security firm in here London. I contacted our bank security house here in London and made the funds available to the security firm. I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited at our Bank of England based security consultancy firm, The deceased told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had. In June last year, we got a call from our Bank of london Securities Company informing us that the activity 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 at Securities Co,and I could not understand why the deceased had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate the deceased. I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of Bristol & West. Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently our client was dead. A person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in Cannes, South of France. the deceased died without a testate. 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 fund. This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this man's family but no good result. The investigation has come to an end. 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 as a sole Beneficiary. We share the money 50%/50% iof the total sum $12.2 million US Dollars .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 deceased and I will then officially communicate with my Bank Securities Co and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. 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 the numbers I will provide for you and also through this email address. 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. I await your response. Best Regards, Dr Harry Medua Bank of England
