A Hot Proposition
From: Mr. Song Lile
Subject: PLEASE CONTACT ME (ASAP)
MR. Song Li le
Hang Seng Bank Ltd.
Sai Wan Ho Branch,
83, Des Voeux Road, Hong Kong.
Good Day,
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. SONG LI LE director of operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd.I have an obscured business suggestion for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Colonel Sadiq Uday who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman, made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of Nineteen millions Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that the Colonel along with 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:
1.http://www.ccmep.org/usbombingwatch/2003.htm#3/19/03
2.http://civilians.info/iraq/deaths_data.php
After further investigation it was also discovered that Colonel Sadiq Uday 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, Nineteen 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 5 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 Colonel Sadiq Uday so that you will be able to receive his funds.
MODALITIES:
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 Colonel Sadiq Uday, 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 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 to 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 then share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for you.
Should you be interested please send me your,
1,Full names,
2,private phone number,
3,current residential address,
And I will prefer you reach me on my private email address below: (soog0007@yahoo.com.hk) 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 Song Lile
Here is my intended response:
Dear Mr. Le Li:
First off, let me just say, wow, I am absolutely thrilled that you chose me to profit from an entire family being blown up in a grisly, unjust war! It's an honour, really. Thank you.
Those niceties aside, I don't think you know exactly who you're dealing with here. i.e. you must think I'm a fucking idiot. I'm the one taking all the risk here. Setting aside the fact that I'm a blond-haired, blue-eyed whiter-than-white white chick whom no one is going to believe is the intimate next-of-kin of anyone named Sadiq Uday, wtf is this 70-30 bullshit? Do you know what they do to blond-haired, blue-eyed whiter-than-white white chicks in Asian prisons? I mean, did you SEE Brokedown Palace? I don't really remember all of it, but didn't they have to shit in a hole in the ground or something? And then there was that part with the cockroach that goes in that one girl's ear. Ew!
Plus, it seems to me that once I give you all of my personal bank account details and full access to all of my money and credit information, I'M now the one with all the leverage in this deal. I mean, hello? Is anyone in there? What's to stop me from just keeping the whole nineteen millions of United State dollar you deposit, and then saying "Song Le Li WHO?" Nothing, that's what.
Listen, dicknose, I don't give you account number ONE until we decide that this deal is split 63-NO! Make that... 58-42. Yes, that will do nicely, I think. Mwahahaha--er, yes.
Your proposition strangely intrigues me, Mr. Le Li, and I don't want to be overly difficult here, but you have to see that I am not a person to be trifled with. I'm sure you have grasped by now that I have a keen business sense and a mind like a steel trap i.e. NOTHING GETS BY ME.
I trust this new arrangement meets with your approval. I await your response with interest, and look forward to hearing about your legalized method of modality forthwith.
Yours shrewdly,
alanisw@hotmail.com
P.S. Do you think my getting a fake tan would help the plan at all? Just a thought.
I'm not going to do the "3 Good Things" thing today, at least not in this space, but I will say that one of them was ultimately caused by the existence of Douglas Adams. Without him I wouldn't have been amused by streetlights this morning. I'm very glad he decided to be a writer.

I also got a latest copy of this mail have a look
DEAR FRIEND,
I am Mr Song Lile Executive Director of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd,Sai Wan Ho
Branch,171 Shaukiwan Road Hong Kong.
An Iraqi named Haider Hanoon,a business man made a numbered fixed deposit
of (139,513,102.50 HK) for 18 calendar months, this is valued Seveteen
million Eight Hundred and Sixty Thousand United States Dollars only in my
branch. Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even during the war,
three years ago (2003). Again after the war another notification was sent
and still no response came from him. We later found out that Haider Hanoon
and his family had been killed during the war in Gunfire that hit their home
at Mukaradeeb where his personal oil well was.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Haider Hanoon 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, Seveteen
million Eight Hundred and Sixty Thousand United State Dollars is still lying
in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me is
that according to the laws of my country at the expiration five years six
months the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if
nobody applies to claim the funds.
My proposal, I am prepared to place you as the next of kin in a position to
instruct HANG SENG BANK to release the deposit to you as the closest
surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the
money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of
kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the procentange
50/50. I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that
would have drawn a straight line in my involvement in claiming the deposit.I
assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days.
I will simply inform the bank of the final closing of the file relating to
Haider Hanoon I will then officially communicate with my Bank and instruct
them to release the deposit to you. With these: all is done. I am aware of
the consequences of this proposal.
I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard
this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer
is of no appeal to you,delete this message and forget I ever contacted you.
Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may
not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of
comparable situations run the whole private banking sector. I am not a
criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be
hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I
make this move. Such opportunities only come ones way once in a lifetime. I
cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control
of my destiny.
These chances wont pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if
you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do
not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide them
with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task
well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have
here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the
only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a
name that has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Lets
share the blessing.
If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a
conclusion. I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official
channels; I will deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not
want you contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you
contacting me through my official email account. Contact me only through the
numbers I will provide for you and also through the email account that i
will provide therein in this email.
Further more be informed that the fact that you are a foreigner give you
the privilege to stand in as my deceased client beneficiary as my deceased
client had no relation all his family died with him during the war and I can
not use my relation because its not accepted here in Hong Kong. Also I am
very confident that we will be able to establish the trust that is needed to
complete this deal and all that I need from the time been is your
willingness and commitment so that we can end this in the nest one weeks.
What you need to understand about this transaction is that I will make sure
that it passes through all international banking laws regards to this I will
take care of all the expenses and the cost of retaining the service of my
Attorney to give the transaction the proper documentation that is required
to perfect the finishing. Your only obligation in this transaction will be
to set up two offshore accounts that can accommodate these funds and I will
give you more light later once you agree to partner with me.
Like I said before there is no risk involve as it will pass through
international banking laws and all documents related to this transaction
will be sent to you by post for your perusal and trust.
I do not want any direct link between you and me. My official lines are not
secure lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of
customer care in line with our Total Quality Management Policy. Please
observe this instruction religiously. Please, again, note I am a family man,
I have wife and children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear
as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is
nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter
of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking
clients. Do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord, we should
plan a meeting, soon. Should you be interested I will prefer you to reach me
on the email address below.
E-mail:song_hangsang2@yahoo.com.hk.Your earliest response to this letter
will be appreciated.
I await your response.

I recieved one from him too this morning. But he told me he has $42,500,00.00 that he would like to split with me 70-30. This isnt the first time I've recieved something like this. The last person was from indonesia in a bank that didnt exist, he said someone who has the same last name as me died in the bali bombings. And that I am entiteled to the money, which I thought was odd because my dad and my grandad have the same last name as me so why not them? Then I recive this email. If he wants to give me money thats fine but I wont be giving him any details of mine at all. He can send me a cheque. If its 70% he wants he can do all the work. But after googling him its so obvious its a scam. Not a very good one because there are easier ways to access peoples money than asking them. How stupid can he be?

Mr Song Lile contacted me too, but he seems to have changed his Job Title a few times now ''My name is Mr. Song Lile,I am the credit officer in Hang Seng Bank,Hong Kong. '' He said the life long story of this Iraqi guy that , and i QUOTE ''We later found out that Haider Hanoon and his family had been killed during the war in Gunfire that hit their home at Mukaradeeb where his personal oil well was.''
like yeah, the guy had his own oil well????? awwwww the poor guy!!!!
I sent him a nice letter though to string him on,'' just a few questions to help me validate what you are proposing and the ratio of risk associated with this offer....'' lets see what he replies with.
I did also ask what was happening to the proceeds of this well now that Mr Hanoon had died!

Hey!

Lmao! I've just been receiving the same e-mails for the past 2 weeks. I had come to believe that this was a scam, possibly there are some real funds and he is just trying to get someone to open that account and as soon as they do he can fuck us over. Yeah I'm not down to going to Asia so I can be tortured and torn apart. No thanks! This guy is a fool for trying to mess with any of us. I'm just going to keep leading him on to figure out the actuality of the situation. I'm quite curious. Apparently he has no life or if he does it's just a lie anyways. I'm gunna give him a piece of my mind at the end of all this. When I responded to his letters I did ask him to properly address me in the letters so that I could tell if it was a scam or not. And yes, he actually did respond to me by name. So it was quite surprising. Well don't any of you fall for this bull shit, because it is you that can get hurt in the end.
