852-8170-3961

Our contact was from Martin Gong the sum was 14 Million 7 Hundred thousand.

What pleasure do they get out of it but will check with my phone provider to make sure about calls.

Yep, I got this one. 17.5million dollars. This from a Peter Chang. Number was 852 81934004.

I received a letter from Li Pei from Chiyu Banking Corporation, Hong Kong telling me that a John White has died intestate, and offering to split his financial portfolio of $14.7 million 50/50 with me.

Nice thought, and I used to live in Hong Kong, so it seemed like it could be the real thing, but I found websites telling of very similar letters received, that were a scam.

Same letter, different name, Business Relations Manager Mr Ju Long on the bottom of the letter, ju.lung for the email address. The third letter we've received over the past 3 years, have binned them all, you just know it's a scam from the wording of the letter etc, etc, seen it all before. Do wonder how many people are sucked in though, if you hadn't seen or heard it all before it could be convincing.

Had same letter but from Li Pei
number: +85281703961 email: lipei60@yahoo.com ...chucked it

similar letter - 24th Sept 2012  - phone number - 852 800 905 068 - (seems that in Hong Kong the 800 part or at least the 8 part of it is for forwarding numbers so coulsd revert back to UK) - Pudong Investment Bank - Tianjin - all the Hong Kong bits seem to have some validity. No specific amount mentioned.  Letter sent in UK.  Claims to be from UK Management Office but no UK number.  Web site created 5 Sept 2012.  Web server based just north of Skipton in Yorkshire! Good to get confirmation that this a scam ... but I thought it worth checking!

Received same letter today from Guanxi 93@mail.com his name is Ketenci Guanxi telephone number 85181911043. Ours wad 17.5 million . Chap died in hiking accident 2002. Was half sucked in until searched on Internet . Thanks to all of your postings .

From Mr Cheng Gong, Business Relations Manager from China Construction Bank in Hong Kong
chenggong7@yahoo.com
Tel: 852 8191 4147
Postage Code: 73AC 583U
Amount: $17.37 million

*I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to 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*

Chenggong is a ghost city in China

Different phone number for me but Royal Mail postage mark code is the same.

My letter comes from 'Boyd Wu' from China. Obviously a scam.

To identify the source can new reports say if they have booked hotels in Hong Kong.

I recently have and it's possible that the hotel had passed on my details to scammers.

My mother received a letter from a Mr Butcher Bau saying he had found $17.5mUS in my late fathers name.

It included an e-mail address for him but not the Dalian Bank. I exchanged a few e-mails with him giving no extra details and when he realised that I wasn't playing to his rules the e-mails stopped. It is surely a scam.

Recieved texts, emails and phone calls from kim yong wong pretty much the same someone with the same surname as me died no relatives found and there is 18 million that will go to the state if I dont claim to be the relative of course he also wants cut but I need to travel to amsterdam to get it and take 6 grand with me for the release fee  these people are unbelievable they have sent bank details ( deutsche bank ) hong kong, executor letter, affidavit of next of kin and the death certificate can you believe it well I nearly did so watch out everyone.

Received similar letter today Mar 2013. The message starts "I am Jim Feng, Business Relations Manager for China National Construction Bank in Hong Kong ... Etc etc". Depressingly, as this implied some success with the scam, the letter has a 60p stamp. It's clearly worth their while spending out to part fools from their money.

The email address is Fjin77@ymain.com and the phone number is +85281932247.

Reading the comments below I received a letter in the post from a Mr Huk who apparently worked for The Bank of Dalian who advised that I was entitled to USD17.5million from a relative who apparently died in a car crash sometime ago. He said he would share the inheritance claim 50/50 with me and he would stump up the initial court fees for the transaction to go through. This is all bollox. You get to a point when some attorney apparently assigned by the bank requests an up front court fee of USD16.5k to make this transaction go through. His name is Stephen Chow. It all seems convincing and the scam goes on for about a month or so, if you get anything like this report to the authorities or just bin it and/or tell them to f off or do what I did, waste their time but don't pay anything.

I have had the same scan pulled on me $17,500 million he kept on sending me emails and said he had paid the solicitors to do the work i just kept him going to waist his time as i know it was a con, so please do not fall for this horrible trick, his name Mr Jun

However last night I fould a letter on web site dated June2012 from Public Bank in Hong Kong with excacly the same wording. The only difference is the name of the banks, the amount of dollars, on mine 17.5 and on the other one 10.5. These scammers are not even bother to change the wording. Now they want 14K from me for. No way

Yep recieved the same letter, they will scam you on phone calls, lawyers fee's or steal your I.D details, nobody will recieve any money YOU WILL LOOSE MONEY!!!

Chuck it in the bin!!

Mine is identical except that his name is now Jim Lu, and e-mail Jlu87@yahoo.com

As with the letter you have received mine is identical to yours with the same name, Jim Lu, and e-mail, Jlu87@yahoo.com, details - obviously getting into the swing of cutting and pasting information!!

Got the letter from a Jim Lu based in Hong Kong

Read previous entry about it being a scam (agreed), probably Nigerian (no basis for that, International reputations notwithstanding and, to my mind not the kind of truthful information requested by this inclusive site).
