Fw: Greetings----- Original Message ----- From: "ROBERT TAYLOR" <r0berttaylor@yahoo.co.uk> Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 10:31 AM Subject: Greetings >I am Robert Taylor, Director at Kleinwort Benson Private Bank, the private >banking arm of Dresdner Bank, which in turn, is a subsidiary of German >insurance giant Allianz. I am contacting you concerning a deceased >customer, and an investment he placed under our banks management 3years >ago. 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 2005, 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 8.7 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 spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins > for our first months of operation. In January 2007, 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 Kleinwort Benson > Private Bank would have to make special arrangements to have this done. I > explained to him the complexities of the task he was asking of us. Large > cash movements have become especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. > I contacted my affiliate and had the funds available as he had requested. > 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 transactio! > ! > ns that need immediate access to > 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 25th February 2007. > > In October 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. 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 this investigation that resulted in my being furnished with your > details as a possible relative of the deceased. My official capacity > dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the > only party to receive the results of the investigation. 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 Kleinwort Benson Private > Bank failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the > deposit to Kleinwort Benson Private Bank. This will result in the money > entering the Kleinwort Benson Private Bank 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 8,700,000.00 deposited in a security company. I alone have the > deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I > instruct them to do so. > > I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as Kleinwort > Benson Private Bank is concerned, the transaction with the late customer > concluded when I sent the funds to the security company all outstanding > interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due > process. The security company has no single idea of what's the history or > nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting instructions to release > the deposit to any party that I may direct. This is the situation. > > This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this man'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 instruct > the security company 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 > proceeds 50/50. You with the same very name as the original depositor > would easily pass as the beneficiary with right to claim. > > 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 our late client. I will then officially communicate with the > security company and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With > these two things: all is done. The alternative would be for us to have the > security company direct the funds to another bank with you as account > holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the > money directly from the security company as it is not a conventional > financial institution; they accept deposits from only organizations thus; > what you hand over to them is what you get back. They do not have the > means to process the money. > > 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 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. This chance wont passes 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 find yourself able to work with me, > contact me through this email. If you give me positive signals, I will > give you the relevant details and 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 my alternate > email account: r0berttaylorr@hotmail.com > > I do not want any direct link between you and I. 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 a 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, > Robert Taylor > |
