The China Scam

Tuesday, September 06, 2005

Been having late nights at work for the past few days. Shack. But glad that the busy days are over for now. Anyway, here's a follow up on the previous post. I know this is a lazy way of blogging since this is just cut and paste, but all my brain juice is used up by the time I get home. Oh well, for now you will have to make do with this, till I settle in properly at work and have more time to think about the out of point things I used to think about in the past.

Dear Goh Yit Shyt,

Greetings to you,I received all your updates and now I am very certain that you are ready to give the required assistance and execute this business with me. I apologize for this late response as I was attending a Summit in Beijing with insufficient time for sensitive matter as I do not want any mistakes in this business. hope this will turn out be a long and lasting bussiness relationship together.This transaction is 100% safe and legal as you'll get to see as we go along, all procedures leading to the transfer of the funds to your local account or through our correspondent bank has to be secured with strict adherence to statutory provision of the law. As soon as the machinery to commence is set in motion, all the proof and copies of the documentation shall be sent to you in the course of the transaction and as at when due.

Due to the very sensitive nature of this pending transaction, please bear with me if I am being a little vague at this early stage as I am as skeptical as you are with communicating with a total stranger, but please be rest assured that the funds will be backed up with documents stating the origin of the fund and that it being funds for an inheritance going by the documents that will be secured, you will not have anything to worry about. It is a given thing that trusts is earned, it is not given out lightly, however, because of my dire need for a foreign partner in this transaction, I request your assistance to pose/ stand as the next of kin to the beneficiary of the estate of the deceased and all that is contained in the Will as shall be drafted and prepared by a notary public attroney. The WILL and other supporting legal documents shall establish you legally as the next of kin and sole beneficiary and executor of the estate and WILL of the deceased.


For this, I urge you to propose a reasonble percentage of the total funds as your share and as an _expression of my gratitude for your assistance and partnership, thus encouraging you to guaranty that my share of the funds will be secured and transferred to me as when required. I shall require some information and a brief profile of yourself and upon receipt of the information, I shall immediately begin the processes which will lead to the approval and release of the funds to you as the bonafide executor and next of kin of the depositor going by the documents that will be secured. After all the necessary documentation for the funds release are met and satisfied, an approval shall be given by the legal department of my bank for the eventual release of the funds to your nominated local account, or via our accredited correspondent bank. When the funds gets to the correspondent bank and into a account with the bank that you shall be required to open, you can transfer the money to your local account or any other account at your convinience and transfer a certain percentage of my share of the funds to me through an account that I shall give to you at that time. Please note also that the funds can be transferred to your local account if we meet the requirement for the direct transfer. I shall equally require your assistance in advising me on good investment opportunities in your country as I might invest the remaining part of my share of the funds in your country for the obvious security reason that might be breached if we come to back to my country with my share of the funds.

It is my hope that the funds can be transferred into your account within ten (10) banking days from the date you provide me with the information that I need to prepare the documents, but for now, I need to ascertain your ability to control and safe guard a large sum of money and guarantee that I shall get my share of the funds from you as soon as you receive the money in your account, I need to following from you:

Your full name and address;
Your confidential telephone and fax numbers:
A brief profile of yourself:

I might be able to contact you via telephone and once I clarify your willingness and ability to proceed with the transaction, I shall immediately give more insight as to what is expected of you for this transaction to come true. You may send me an e-mail with further information about yourself so that I can provide you with the rest details for us to proceed further. Should you decide not to render this assistance, it will be taken in good faith as this will enable me source for another person in the event of non-interest on your part.

I will not be able to send you my pass port ok as am not comfortable with this ok,because i still dont know who you are and this is a very huge amount of funds,so am always very carefull letting out the confidentiality of this transaction,but you can give me a telephone call on my confidential number as it was gotten forb this transaction alone for top most cnfidentiality. +88 21621527285

Ps: I am a parent with 4 children and a wife, I cannot do anything that will keep me away from them so berest assured. All you need to know as regards my bankand other detailed information shall be brought toyour attention during the course of this transaction. Yea yea, try telling that to a real business partner. Having 4 kids and a wife my ass. Although the 1 child policy is gone, isn't there still a restriction on the family size?


Dear Mr Chu Sengchen

I understand your position with regards to security of information. However, being vague is not helping me in making a decision. I have understood your proposal with regards to this transaction and the further investment of your share of the funds in my country, but I still have my reservations with regards to the security of my personal information.

I would request that you can provide me with some form of collateral as assurance so as to reduce any risk of my personal information falling into the wrong hands. I can provide you with the following information as such:

Name: Goh Yit Shyt
D.O.B. : 29 Feb 1973
Country of residence: Malaysia
State: Si mi lan jau (this is a real place!)

I am currently working in an investment bank as the Vice-President of the Mountebanking Division. I have 10 years of working experience in the finance sector and you can be assured that I can help direct your funds to the areas which will reap the largest return.

As you are also working in a bank, I am sure you are familiar with the credit policies of a bank, which includes running a background check on the creditor or counterparty to ensure that he does not default on his payments. Therefore, I hope that you would be most understanding in my requests for a more detailed profile of you as well.

Also, I would like to inform you that I have roped in a friend of mine as my business partner in this deal. His personal information is as such:

Name: Yew Pang Tsai (the T in Tsai is silent)
Occupation: CEO of Major Sanitary Business Provider

Unfortunately, I am unable to provide you with a secure bank account number at the moment as I am still in the process of applying for a Swiss bank account to allow you to deposit the funds into. Do allow a few business days for the application to be processed by the Swiss bank.

I will forward my bank account number to you as soon as it is ready. In the meantime, I hope you would furnish me with more information about yourself and also a picture of yourself.

Sincerely,

Goh Yit Shyt

Attention: , Goh Yit Shyt,

* This information is very confidential. It is for you only *

Now I am certain that you are willing to give the required assistance and I must maintain that we shall succeed as we are about to commence this deal,I was a little hill so this is couse of my delay to you anyway, Let me reiterate here that I seek an assistance from you that will benefit us immersely. I beleive in the principle of look before you leap, that is why I am sending you more information to enable you have an indepth and total understanding of this transaction before we commence. If after reading this detail you deem it fit to render the desired assistance, then give me a call so we can proceed, if your response is in the negative, please do well to inform me via email and destory all the communication we have shared.

I feel safer to divulge some vital information about this transaction to you at this time as I have done above by giving you my data and to bring you into the full picture of this deal with your apparent understanding of the need for utmost confidentiality and secrecy about every detail of this transaction till such a time when it is safe to do otherwise.

What must be done:

I have already take the information you have provided to the Attorney who will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of kin. The attorney will draft a Will which will name you as the beneficiary/sole executor of the Will. This WILL will be backdated to purport that it had been written and signed by the depositor himself. The attorney will file in the High court with an appropriate affidavit in order to empowering you as the next of kin/Sole Beneficiary and Trustee/Sole Executor of the Estate of depositor which includes the sum of US$30M lying in the account number which I shall give you. All these processes will be accomplished within 7 working days and money will be transferred to your account immediately. The very good thing about this transaction is that it will be done in a very proper and legal manner.


Upon preparation of these documents and approvals from the relevant authorities, then our correspondence bank in Europe/Canada will now transfer the money to your nominated account. The attorney will handle all the processes of obtaining the approvals on your behalf and therefore I ask that you be very certain of the bank information you have provided. On completion of this transaction, you will be required to hold this fund in your account until I come over to your country for the sharing of the money.

There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us. I hope this will be an enduring partnership, because I will need your help to do a research into viable and feasible investment options for me; because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country as any attempt for me to invest my share of the money in my country will only trigger off attention to me and a chain of investigation will ensue.

It is of utmost importance that you communicate only with the provided telephone and fax numbers, So please call me on my telephone number to acknowlegde the receipt of this e mail so we can discuss to smoothen out entangle issues that you do not understand.

Please note that you did not include you confidential telephone number,as this is very imprtant,I need to speak to you on the telephone fo better discussion and aquintances.

(what happened to all the family shit???)

I await your call/response while anticipating your full co-operation.
Partner

Mr Chu Sengchen


Dear Mr Chu,

This is my office telephone number:
(65) 999-7356-244 (if you observe carefully, if he calls this number, he will reach our friendly neighbourhood policeman)


However, I often fly out of the country for business trips and you might not be able to get me in the office. If you can't reach me, please leave a message with the operator. Tell her your name and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Once again, you have ignored my request for your personal details. You claim to be a Bank Manager and you have an attorney, but I need proof. I also need proof that you are who you say you are. Therefore, I would really appreciate it if you could provide me with some form of evidence that the person I am conversing with actually exists. Ideally, a copy of your passport would be sufficient.

I hope you would not ignore my request again because I have fulfilled my side of the deal by providing you with my personal information, but you have failed to do so. Verbal guarantees alone would not be sufficient.

Regards,

Goh Yit Shyt
