Good day Sir/Madam,

Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr.Peter T S Wong director of operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd in Hong Kong.I have an obscured business suggestion for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war one of our client Colonel Sadiq Uday who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of One hundred and twenty five million, seven hundred and fifty thousand U.S dollars only in my branch.

Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even during the war which began in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that the General along with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.

After further investigation it was also discovered that Colonel Sadiq Uday did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, One hundred and twenty five million, seven hundred and fifty thousand U.S dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it.

When I discovered he and his family is dead i had to look for a very reliable person who can stand as the Next of kin to that funds , so that the funds will be transfered out of the bank immediately. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration 5 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.

Please treat this business with utmost confidentiality and send me the following.

(1)Full names, (2)Private Phone number (3)Current residential address, (4)Occupation (5)Age and Proffession.


Therefore , if you know you are capable of involving in this mouth watering transaction, please send me an email to my Private email below, so that i will give you more details about this transaction and how we will successfully carry out this transaction without any risk involved.


Mr.Peter T S Wong

Welcome to scamwarners, Angry_Ted & well-done on posting the headers to the email & finding it's source.

In the past, I have sent similar emails to the Hang Seng Bank customer enquiries department - which can be found on their website (www.hangseng.com/hse.html) on the 'Contact Us' page.

They appear to be very interested in these sorts of emails & pass the details to the Hong Kong police for investigation & action.

Hi Angry Ted and welcome

I'm not quite sure from your post whether you thought that
person: Tunde Ogedengbe
address: Linkserve
was the scammer. Just to clarify, he is the Admin contact or registrant for the Linkserve ISP, www.linkserve.com.ng, and not the person who wrote that email, so although your scammer is indeed in Nigeria, you're unlikely to track him down any further than that.
Well spotted for that though
