Jeffrey Rice Egyption Phishing Scam Sample E-mail
Good day to you,
My name is Jeffrey Rice, I am the credit manager with a
bank here in
the
United Kingdom. I am contacting you in respect of the
transfer of a
huge sum
of money from the account of a deceased client. Though I
know that
a transaction of
this
nature and magnitude will make any one apprehensive and
worried, I
am
assuring you that everything has been taken care of, and
you have
nothing to fear at all and i would be very glad if you
would allow
me bring you to a clearer picture of what is on ground,
what we
intend to do and how we intend to do it. I decided to
contact you
due to the
secrecy,confidentiality and urgency of this transaction.
PROPOSITION;
I was the account officer of a foreigner, named Gerald
Welsh who died
in
an air crash along with his wife on the 31st October 1999
in an
Egyptian
airline boeing 990 with other passengers on board. You can
confirm this
fact
from the website which was aired by the BBC WORLD NEWS:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm
Since his death, none of his relatives or
associates have
come forward to
lay
claims to his funds as next-of-kin, and on my own i have
made
concerted
effort to locate any of his relatives but all proved
abortive, which
makes me
believe that nobody of his knows that he was operating this
foreign
account with my bank. Based on the ethics and policies of
the bank,
these
funds will be declared unclaimed funds and taken to the
treasury of the
bank
as capital base of the bank, because already the account
has been
tagged
dormant because it has exceeded the normal functional
number of years.
We cannot release the fund from his account unless
someone
applies for it or lays
claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in
our banking
guidelines.
Upon this discovery, I now seek your permission and
assistance
to
present
you and have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased,so
that the
funds
can be released and transfer to you, as all documentations
will be
carefully
worked out by me for the funds (US$15,000,000.00) to be
released in
your
favor as the beneficiary's next of kin, if not the members
of the board
of
directors will utilise it for their personal
aggrandisement. Because
after
four years as this is the fifth year going the money will
be called
back to
the bank treasury as unclaimed bills and the money shared
amongst the
directors of the bank, so it is on this note i decided to
seek for whom
his
name shall be used as the next of kin/beneficiary to this
funds rather
than
allow the bank directors to share this money amongst
themselves at the
end
of the year.
It may interest you to know that I have secured
from the
probate
commission an order of mandamus to locate any of the
deceased
beneficiaries.

our mutual
business endeavour by furnishing me with the following

are interested.
1.A Beneficiary name..In order for me to prepare

with this
funds
when it finally gets to your account. I shall be
