Dear Friend,
I am Frits Seegers, Chief Executive at Barclays.I am
contacting you concerning a deceased customer William
Nathan,and an investment he placed under our banks
management.I would respectfully request that you keep
the contents of this mail confidential and respect the
integrity of the information you come by as a result
of this mail.
I contact you independently and no one is informed of
this communication.I would like to intimate you with
certain facts that I believe would be of interest to
you.
In 2004, the subject matter came to our bank to engage
in business discussions with our private banking
division. He informed us that he had a financial
portfolio of 7.35 million British Pounds Sterling,
which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his
behalf.I was the officer assigned to his case, I made
numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the
de-facto chief operations officer of the private
banking sector, especially given the volume of funds
he wished to put into our bank.
We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments
being placed. I encouraged him to consider various
growth funds with prime ratings.
The favored route in my advise to customers is to
start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and
bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative
investments. Based on my advice, We spun the money
around various opportunities and made attractive
margins for our first months of operation, the accrued
profit and interest stood at this point at over 9
million British Pounds Sterling, this margin was not
the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk
guaranteed returns on investments. In mid 2005, he
asked that the money be liquidated because he needed
to make an urgent investment requiring cash
payments.He directed that I liquidate the funds and
have it deposited with a security firm.
I informed him that Barclays would have to make
special arrangements to have this done and in order
not to circumvent due process, the bank would have to
make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for
banking and statutory charges. He complained about the
charges but later came around when I explained to him
the complexities of the task he was asking of us.
I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed
his precise instructions to the letter and had the
funds deposited with a security consultancy firm. This
security firm is an especially private firm that
accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and
blue chip corporations that handle valuable products
or undertake transactions that need immediate access
to cash.
This small and highly private organization is familiar
especially to the highly placed and well-connected
organizations. In Line with instructions, the money
was deposited with them.He told me he wanted the money
there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later
that week. This was the last communication we had,
this transpired around 25 th February 2006.
In June last year, we got a call from the security
company informing us of the inactivity of that
particular portfolio. This was an astounding position
as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I
managed the private banking sector I was the only one
who knew about the deposit at the security company,
and I could not understand why our client had not come
forward to claim his deposit.I made futile efforts to
locate him.
I immediately passed the task of locating him to the
internal investigations department of Barclay. Four
days later, information started to trickle in,
apparently our man was dead. A person who suited his
description was declared dead of a heart attack in
Canne, South of France. We were soon enough able to
confirm all of this including cause of death. The bank
immediately launched an investigation into possible
surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and
also to come forward to claim his estate.
If you are familiar with private banking affairs,
those who patronize our services usually prefer
anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from
conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he
listed no next of kin. In the field of private
banking,opening an account with us means no one will
know of its existence,accounts are rarely held under a
name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the
accounts anonymous.
This bank even gives the choice to depositors of
having their mail sent to them or held at the bank
itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the
account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of
kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating
next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in
our care, in this case; our now deceased client died
in testate. In line with our internal processes for
account holders who have passed away, we instituted
our own investigations in good faith to determine who
should have right to claim the estate. This
investigation has for the past months been unfruitful.
We have scanned every continent and used our private
investigation affiliate companies to get to the root
of the problem.
It is quite clear now that our dear fellow died with
no known or identifiable family members. This leaves
me as the only person with the full picture of what
the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit
and the late beneficiary of the deposit.
According to practice,the security company will by the
end of this year broadcast a request for statements of
claim to Barclays, failing to receive viable claims
they will most probably revert the deposit to
Barclays. This will result in the money entering the
Barclays accounting system and the portfolio will be
out of my hands and out of the private banking
division.This will not happen if I have my way.
What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical
practice but I want you to understand something. It is
only an outsider to the banking world who finds the
internal politics of the banking world aberrational.
The world of private banking especially is fraught
with huge rewards for those who sit upon certain
chairs and oversee certain portfolios. You should have
begun by now to put together the general direction of
what I propose. There is 7,350,000.00 deposited in a
security company.
This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to
track the deceased”s family; they have investigated
for months and have found no family. The investigation
has come to an end. My proposal; I am prepared to
furnish the necessary details 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:
When the bank simply nominate you as the next of kin
and the deposit to you.We share the proceeds 50/50.
We can fine-tune this based on our interactions.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 a tidy sum out of
comparable situations run the whole private banking
sector.
I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find
agai
nst 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.This chance 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.
If you give me positive signals,I will give you the
relevant details and initiate this process towards a
conclusion.
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.I
await your response.
Sincerely,
Frits Seegers

As it stands now, there is nobody in that position to produce the needed information other than my very self considering my position in the bank, Since nobody has come for the claims of the deposit as next of kin, I seek for your co operation to use your name as the next of kin to the diseased to send this funds out to a foreign offshore bank a/c for mutual sharing between me and you, already I have removed the deposit file from the safe by this doing, what is required from you is to send an application seeking claims of the deposit as next of kin to the late Mr.Burke Sean. I will send you specimen of application as soon as you confirm your readiness to assist me move the funds out of the vault of our bank.
