This guy emails you claiming to be a credit officer from Hang Seng Bank in Hongkong. He has a proposal to put your name as next of kin for someone who died, so that you can claim a large amount of money. Don’t send your personal info. This is a typical scam. Below is a copy of the email:

Dear Partner,
I am Mr. Patrick Chan a Credit Officer of the Hang Seng Bank in Hong Kong. I have a business proposal for you. My client a Major, who was with the armed forces and also a Merchant in Middle east, made a fixed deposit for million of dollars for 18 months with my bank. Upon maturity several notices were sent to him. It was later discovered that he and his family were killed in the war leaving no heir/family member to these fund. According to the to the laws of my country at the expiration 3 years which has currently exceeded, the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.

I have already succeeded in transferring the funds to an online bank and if you are interested, my proposal is to put you as next of kin and have the funds released to you from the online bank for a share in the ratio 50% each. All paper works would be put in place to ensure a legal transfer. However I shall be waiting your response and assurance that you can be of partnership with me in making the project a reality. Should you be interested in executing this proposal with me; please kindly reply me with your full name and current address and telephone number on my e-mail address below:

[email protected]

Finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this whole operation.

Sincerely,
Patrick Chan.
