Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Ming Yang director ofoperations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have an obscured businesssuggestion for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Gen. AadelAkgaalBastaan who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of TwentyFourmillion Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch.Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war whichbegan in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that the General
alongwith his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home. You can read more about the bombings on
visiting these sites below:

After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in methe last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Twenty Four million Five Hundred Thousand UnitedState Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one willknow of it. What bothers me most is thataccording to the laws of my country at the expiration of 3 years and 6 months the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop,
my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan so that you will be able to receive his funds.

WHAT IS TO BE DONE:

I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful. I have an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can
commence his job. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favour for the move of the funds to an account that will be provided by you.

There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we are going adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents.

Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. I would appreciate if you reply me through my private mail box (mmm_yang_10@yahoo.com.hk) Should you be interested please send me your full names, private phone/fax and current residential address and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of
this operation.

Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Mr. Ming Yang.
