to me
Greetings,

Thank you for getting back to me as I requested, I want a way we can fully understand each other and I believe that email communication will make for a better understanding and also afford us the confidentiality we need throughout the process of this transaction which I am about to tell you. My name is Mr. John J. McGuire, I want you to join hands with me in getting back the money left behind by late Mr. Crisanto Benjamin Mendoza who was a citizen of your country according to his records with us. If this will endanger your position and reputation, I would not have contacted you, this is safe and beneficial to both of us financially. I am presently the operations manager of our bank here in Charlotte North Carolina and please do keep this information to yourself. I will give you more details of myself, our bank and the transaction itself once you accept to do this with me.

Late Mr. Crisanto Benjamin Mendoza lived and worked in Charlotte North Carolina as an exporter of textiles and he deposited in our bank the sum of Two million, seven hundred thousand US dollars (US$2,700,000) as fixed deposit for a period two years in 2011. At moment, the government of my country is looking into bank accounts owned by foreigners as a result of its fight against terrorism which is common these days and as the operations manager of my bank branch I have been going through the bank accounts owned by foreigners and advising them of the problems they might face. I tried calling Mr. Crisanto Benjamin Mendoza and his number could not be reached, emails and letters sent to this address are not replied. When I tried to reach his beneficiary, I discovered that Mr. Crisanto Benjamin Mendoza did not put any beneficiary at the time he made the deposit and therefore did not leave anyone else for me to contact. The fear he could lose the money made me undertook an independent investigation to know his whereabouts since there is no one else to contact and I realized that he died in early 2013 as a result of heart-related illness. However, our bank does not know of his death even as I write you this email.

I have gone to his last known address and everyone that knew him confirmed he was dead and I also inquired from the registrar of deaths, his death was registered and there is no known relative of him. I have gone to the Philippines embassy in United State and they could not confirm his identity. All these made it impossible for me to locate any of his relatives. Getting the money is not something I can do alone and what I want to do is to put your name in his records with our bank as his beneficiary so you can apply and make the claim as the legal beneficiary of the money. I know there are lots of Filipinos living here in United State but because of the way our bank works, it is only someone outside of United State that can successfully make the claim. It does not matter if you knew him or not, it does not matter if you had any kind of relationship with him or not, I will guide you all the way until the claim is made. It is not a matter of being greedy, we are not hurting anyone by making this claim and it is not the best to leave the money to eventually end up in the hands of few corrupt government officials while we have the opportunity to live better with the money when claimed. I assure you that this transaction is a risk-free one and as the operations manager of our bank, the verification and approval of your application will be done by me. Once I approve it, you will have the right to claim the money.

We will share the money into two equal parts (50:50) when the claim is made and I will come over to your country for my own share of the money when you have received the money from our bank. Everything will be done successfully as I am in a position to influence things in our favour, have no fear about this. Right now, I have all the copies of documents relating to the deposit he made that you will file to back up your claim as the beneficiary. All I require is your sincerity and honest cooperation to enable us to make this claim successfully and we have to do this now as no one knows when the government could step in for the money. If you are willing to do this with me, write back and I shall inform you on what next to do to make sure you receive the money. I am waiting for your consent in order to move to the next step towards getting the money. Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Mr. John J. McGuire.
