Is that you Judith?

Good Day.


My name is Judith Bell, I am a senior partner in the Technical Advisory
Board of Allied Irish Bank Group Senior Security Specialist .
We are conducting a standard process investigation on behalf of "AIB
Group”, the International Banking conglomerate.

This investigation involves a client who shares the same surname with you
and also the circumstances surrounding investments made by this client at
"AIB
Group”, the Private Banking arm of Allied Irish Bank.
The client died in testate and nominated no successor in title over the
investments made with the bank.
I contact you independently of our investigation 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. You share similar details to the late
fellow; I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct the firm 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.
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 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 in a
lifetime. I have family and this is an opportunity to provide them with
new opportunities.

If you give me positive signals,I will initiate this process towards a
conclusion.

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.

Kind regards,

Mrs Judith Bell.

 

The bad grammar and the awkward sentence construction are dead giveaways. But I'll bet her Hausa is good.

 

That also is true. Nice example. The average ET reader probably didn't even notice the problems in the scam's language.
