URGENT MAIL FROM Mr. Peter H. Tambson

Nothing new in this scam.  “Mr Tambson” is the manager of a bank – he had a rich client who died in a horrible accident – and despite his best efforts “Mr Tambson” can’t find any next of kin.  So – surprise – he wants to share the multi millions with me – or you – or anyone else who receives this email.  What a lot of rubbish.

“Mr Tambson” is a scammer.  He doesn’t want to send you anything.  He wants you to send him money – he will start demanding money for fees if you make the mistake of replying.  Delete the email.

Greetings

I am MR. PETER H. TAMBSON, the Manager of Bills/Exchange at the Foreign Remittance Department of one of the leading banks in South Africa, I got your contact address from your country’s Trade Journal. You’re impressive and managerial records made me to solicit for your partnership in these regards.

I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 1999, an Arab Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the NATIONAL PETROLUEM CO-OPORATION, Prince Nayef Bin Abdul Al-Khatab, Made a numbered time (Fixed deposit) for 36 calendar months, valued at US$50,320,000.00 (Fifty Million Three hundred and Twenty Thousand Dollars only) in my branch. Upon maturity in 2003/2006, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.

After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the National petroleum corporation that Prince Nayef Bin Abdul Al-Khatab, died of auto crash during one of his trips to his country Saudi Arabia, on further investigation. I found out that he died Stated on his (WILL) that the funds should be used to support (ISLAMIC RACE) and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that, Prince Nayef Bin Abdul Al-Khatab. Did not declare any next of kin or relation in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.

This sum of US$50,320,000.00 has been floating as unclaimed since 2002 in my bank as all efforts to get his relatives have hit the stones. According to the banking law at the expiration of 10(TEN) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the federal Government if nobody applies to claim the fund at the end of financial year of 2009. Consequently, my proposal is that I want to seek your consent as a foreigner to stand in as the owner of the money as the next of kin to the deceased so that the bank will transfer the money to your designated account.

All documents and proves to enable you get this fund will be carefully worked out. I have secured from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries, and more so I are assuring you that the business is 100% risk free involvement.

Your share stays while the rest be for me and for investment purpose, as I will leave my country by the end of the year. The sharing of the funds will be based According to agreement between {both of us} that is, me and you. As soon as I receive an acknowledgement of receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business proposal, I will furnish you with the necessary modalities and disbursement ratio to suit both parties without any conflict. If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you.

In the light of above, the following will be required to achieve this goal to avoid mistake.
