People would claim it's due to Her Majesty visiting, but I know that's not it...

Is it to celebrate the banning of Marmite?

That too...

Read and get back!!

(ed. Sure thing, "KOH". Just curious about something: I recall the old addage that you should not trust anyone in billiards / pool whose first name is a geographic landmark-e.g., "Minnesota Fats". Should you trust a banker whose name is an onamonapia for being kicked in the family bits? Something like "KOH!" would be what I'd say too...) [X(]

I am Mr. KOH Beng Seng Independent Non-executive Director Chairman of Bank of China Ltd, Hong Kong.

An Iraqi named Abrahem Hussein Raheem,a business man made a numbered fixed deposit of Sixty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch.
He died during a bomb blast in Iraq,After further investigation it was also discovered that Abrahem Hussein Raheem did not declare any next of kin in his official papers

(ed: that was careless of him. If I'm going to leave $65M in someone's bank, you'd at least think I'd take the time to put in my return address and so forth)

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.

(ed: his driver? Wives? security agents? Guys who helped haul $65M in cash (must have been heavy)?)

So, Sixty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. I am sorry to have used this media to contact with you as i have to use this email for personal security reasons as adviced by my lawyer, so kindly send your response to my personal email below.

I am ready to share 50/50 with you if interested in this deal, kindly note that i have contacted you with a paid domain for security reasons so i need you to copy this email: kohbenghk@yahoo.com.hk of mine and send me your complete details if interested.

(ed: Right then. My complete details? Waist: 34, inseam 36, weight 195, height 6'1", shoe size 10.5-11, brand dependent. My left and right feet have a half size variation between them. I am partial to brunettes and like long walks on the beach.)

Your earliest reply will be appreciated as i state my email again for your perusal kohbenghk@yahoo.com.hk

Yours Truly,
Mr. KOH Beng Seng,
Independent Non-Executive Director

(ed: What irony! I'm an independent, Non-Executive Non-Director of a Risk Committee too!)

Hmmm ... some points here;
1/ Andre, from your comments I take it that you're not realizing what gold mine you've hit [;)][:D]
2/ No one except from him knew of the deposit ... and then he says that his lawyer has advised him on this matter?
3/ Sure, his lawyer advised him to contact some random mail adress right out of the blue [8|] ...

ETA 1; I'm unwilling to split up the threesome spam cell I set up earlier, so this time I instead sent mr. KOHs contact data to crimepre@police.gov.hk. I'm sure those guys are willing to make the $65.000.000 split with him

ETA 2; Andre, have you spread your mail adress around at forums and such as you get so many of these? As I said, the last one I got was the first one for ~10 years. I (almost) never get these, but then I'm quite cautious about spreading my mail adress around.

Not a care in the world. I will send pictures don't worry. We hauled in a 15lb catfish last week from one of our ponds.

Don't have daughters. Or if you do when they get to about 13 hand them off until they get to about 21.

Ok- I hate eating catfish....always catch and release, however I'll catch 15 pounders anyday.

Walleye, bluegill, and crappie are by far my fav. We've been catching crappie every night out at the lake by the bucket fulls (no joke). We're only keeping the 15 inchers.

Some of the best fishing you will ever experience is in Canada.

Heaven on earth. Birch Lake, Ontario. Drive up to International Falls/St. Francis, then into Red Lake, and fly out to Birch Lake on flying norsemen [:)]. Then it is fishing all day for 7 days in a remote camp. Did I mention heaven on earth yet? Northern Pike and Walleye till your hands hurt. [8D]
