My name is Mario Thomas I am Italian, living in London United Kingdom- I am currently the business Relationship Consultant for Lloyds Banking Group United Kingdom. I got your contact email discreetly on Google advance search machine during my search for a reliable partner who would be of assistance to me in order to have the funds transferred out, given what I have in hand and the fact that I cannot run it alone it became necessary for me to seek your assistance to partner with me because of your Surname. We are writing to you regarding the account of our former customer, At the time I worked with Morgan Stanley as a portfolio manager. A customer who was a valued customer until his death 13 years ago now. Since his passing, the account has remained inactive. As a responsible financial institution, we strive to manage accounts of this nature with the utmost care and according to the laws governing unclaimed or dormant accounts. £18,000,000.00 (Eighteen Million Great British Pounds) which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf. His account has not been accessed or claimed by any beneficiaries or estate representatives since their passing. Since you have the same surname, i can present you as the and ensure the proper handling of these funds in accordance with legal procedures. To cut the full story short,around 25th October 2010.He travelled to China on a business trip and died on accident through our investigation which was confirmed in china local news station as well.All the effort to locate any of the relative since 13 years prove abortive.At the end of this year,if there is no body that come forward ,the money will be revert to goverment treasury department as unclaimed NOW HERE IS MY PROPOSAL; You share some similar details with my late client-in this case, a SURNAME. I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct Zurich Bank to release the deposit to you as the sole beneficiary. 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 proceeds 50/50. I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and 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 my late client, I will then officially communicate with Zurich Private Bank and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things, all is done. The alternative would be for us to have Zurich Private Bank direct the funds to another bank with you as account holder. 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 this private email address and my whatsapp number as well. I want to assured you once again that the business is 100% risk free.I am a responsible family man with 3 kids . Please if you are afraid about this project and would like to discontinue or find it cynical, please destroy this email and continue living your life like I never contacted you, I am a man of integrity and respect, my colleagues hold me in high regard. But if you are interested in this project, tell me how you feel and let's do this.Kind regardsMario Thomas
