Mr.Soo Cho
CHO HUNG BANK.
14 1-ka Namdaemun-ro Chung-ku
Seoul, Seoul 100-757
South Korea.
www.chohungbank.co.kr


I am Mr.Soo Cho, credit officer of CHO HUNG BANK. I have an urgent and very
confidential business proposition for you.
On July 8, 2000, a British Oil consultant/contractor with the South Korea Solid
Minerals Corporation, Mr. Phillip Morris made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit
for twelve calendar months, valued at (Twenty-eight Million American Dollars
only) in my branch.
Upon maturity,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, that Mr. Phillip Morris died from an auto-mobile accident.
On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL,and
all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Phillip Morris did
not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents,including his
Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.This sum of US$28,000,000.00 is still sitting
in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the
end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it.
According to Laws of South Korea, at the expiration of (five) years,the money
will revert to the ownership of the South Korea Government if nobody applies to
claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as aforeigner
to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.Phillip Morris so that the fruits of this
old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government
officials.
This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and
address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and
affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the
services of an attorney for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain
the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for
the transfer.
A bank account in any part of the world that you will provide the will, then
facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin.
The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 70%for
me and 25% for you and 5% for Expenses
Incurred in the course of the transaction.There is no risk at all as all the
paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and with my
position as the credit officer guarantees the successful execution of this
transaction. If you are interested, please
reply immediately to my email box.
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details that will help
you understand the transaction.
Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy
communication. You should observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that
this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall
require your assistance to invest my
share in your country.


Regards,
Soo Cho,
