Dr. John Chan Cho Chak from Hong Kong PHISHING SCAM

Hong Kong

Received from: dr.johnchanchochak6@yahoo.com.hk

Dear Friend,

 I am Dr. John Chan Cho Chak, a member of Director of Operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I got your email from an Hong Kong online directory. I am getting in touch with you regarding the estate of a late customer and an investment placed under our banks management about 8 years ago.

I would ask that you keep the contents of this mail confidential,I am contacting you only and no other person is informed of my communication with you. In 2004,our late customer came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our private banking division.He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of large amount,which he wished to have us invest on his behalf. Based on my advice,we spun the money around various business opportunities and made attractive profits for our first months of operation,the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at millions in Dollars.In mid-2005, he instructed that the principal sum be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Hong Kong.

We got in touch with a specialist department in my bank Hang Seng Bank who agreed to receive this money for a fee and make cash available to our late customer who`s name I must withhold for now.However I got a notification from my bank last year that this money has not been claimed.On further enquiries we found out that the said customer was involved in an accident, which means he died intestate. He has no next of kin and the reason I am writing you is because I want you to stand as the next of kin to our late customer.
What I propose is that since I have exclusive access to his file,you will be made the beneficiary of these funds. I know this might be a bit heavy for you, but please trust me on this. For all your troubles I propose that we shall share in the ratio of 65% for me, 30% for you and 5% will be used to pay back any money spent in the process of the transfer.In the banking circle this happens every time,the other option is that the money will revert back to the state and it will be confiscated by the Hong Kong Authority.  This is a lifetime opportunity for us, I hold the Key to these funds and as a Chinese National we see so much cash and funds being re-assigned daily. I would want us to keep communication for now strictly by the mail. The Full amount in question and further details as to what we shall be doing and your role to see the success of transferring the funds will be sent to you when you confirm your willingness to assist me. Please note I am a family man, I am married with children,I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to 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, we should act swiftly on this. Please pardon my writing mistakes. Please get back to me immediately via mail as phone communication with me on the above matter will not be safe and language barrier.

Regards,
Dr. John Chan Cho Chak
