Greetings to you,

However, this correspondence is unofficial and private, and it should be treated as such. I also guarantee you that this transaction is hitch free from all what you may think of. I am David Spivack Executive Vice President & CFO, Far East National Bank, Alhambra Branch, California and I am contacting you based on Trust and confidentiality that will be attached to this transaction. The Management and the Legal department of our bank (Far East National Bank, USA) in a recent meeting recommended that the account of late Dr. Leonard Ledet, who was one of my branch depositor, should be declared Dormant, confiscated and the depositor's fund sent to the Bank Treasury according to U.S.A Banking and financial law. late Dr. Leonard Ledet, died on oct 7th, 2012 in a plane crash with his family of three (3), his brother and two sons (2), all died in the ill fated crash on that fateful day.  The bank having made several efforts to contact any of his relatives to claim this money but

Late Dr. Leonard Ledet was an account holder in my branch; he owns a dollar account with a huge sum of money deposited in a Secret account with my branch. In fact, since his death, no next of kin of the account holder nor any relative of him has shown up for the claim of this fund, this is because he has the account as a secret account thus he left all the documents for the deposit with me as his account officer and financial adviser. This is where I am interested and where I want you to come in, I want you to come in as a relative of the deceased; do not bother that you are not in any way related to him because I am in position to affix your name as the next of kin to the deceased and no one will question it since I am the officer in charge of the account. I will give you the relevant documents and contacts to file the application and then I will effect the approvals for the transfer of the fund to your nominated bank account. I will be the one to provide the vital documents for the transfer of money.

The whole Procedures will last only 9 working days to get the fund retrieved successfully without trace even in future. After the transfer of the money to your nominated bank account, we shall share the money 70-30.that is I will have 70% while you will have 30%.

Kindly respond promptly so that I can advice you on what next to do.

I will be waiting to hear from you.

Yours truly,

David Spivack
