MR.CHOW YAO
MEVAS BANK LTD.
HAIPHONG ROAD,
TSIMSHATSUIS,
KOWLOON HONG KONG.

Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Chow Yao,credit officer of the
Mevas Bank Ltd. I have a concealed business suggestion for you. Before the U.S
and Iraqi war our client General.Aasim Muhammad.who was with the Iraqi forces
and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with
a value of Twenty millions Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my
branch. Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even during the war early
last year. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no
response came from him. We later find out that the General and his family had
been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen.Aasim Muhammad did
not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of
his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office
that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Twenty millions Five
Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will
ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the
laws of my country at the expiration 3 years 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.Aasim Muhammad 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 contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary
document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen.Aasim Muhammad 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 favor for the move
of the funds to an account that will be provided by you.

There is no risk involved at all in the 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. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we
shall share in the ratio of 70% for me, 25% for you and 5% for any expenses
incurred during the course of this operation. Should you be interested please
send me your full names, current residential address and I will provide you with
more details of this operation. I will prefers you to reach me on this email

Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.

Kind Regards
Mr. Chow Yao.
