It reads like the beginning of a Sherlock Holmes story

Good Day, I am Stewart Barculo a member of staff of Standard Life Bank Limited, 30Lothian Road, Edinburgh EH1 2DH, United Kingdom. I sincerely apologize for the manner with wish I have contacted you, Iknow that the internet is unsecured for information’s of vital importancebut I have decided to take the chance seeing that no other means couldhave been faster and more efficient than the E-mail. I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer and an investment heplaced under our banks management eight years ago. I would respectfullyrequest that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respectthe integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail. Icontacted you independently of our investigation and no one is informed ofthis communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that Ibelieve would be of interest to you. In 2000, the subject matter; came toour bank to engage in business discussions with our private bankingdivision. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of Fiftymillion united states dollars, which he wished to have us turn over(invest) on his behalf, I was the officer assigned to his case. Around 25th February 2003 the deceased told me he wanted the money inanticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week, this was the lastcommunication we had, I waited and never heard from him then I immediatelypassed the task of locating him to the internal investigations departmentof Standard Life Bank. Four days later, information started to trickle in,apparently our client was dead. A person who suited his description wasdeclared dead of a heart attack in Cannes, South of France, we were soonenough able to identify the body and cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible survivingnext of kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claimhis funds. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those whopatronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels ofdetachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed nonext of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with usmeans no one will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under aname. My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise theinvestigation and the only party to receive the results of theinvestigation. What this means, you being the last batch of names we haveconsidered, is that our dear late fellow died with no known oridentifiable family member. This leaves me as the only person with thefull picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to thedeposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. My proposal you share the same surname with our late client, I am preparedto share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate youas the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share theproceeds 50/50.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 inclaiming the deposit, but on the other hand, you with the same very nameas the original depositor would easily pass as the beneficiary with rightto claim the funds. I am a family man; I have a wife and children, I send you this mail notwithout a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know withinme that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and richesnever come easy or on a platter of gold, I have evaluated the risks andthe only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me andalerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, goodfortune has blessed you with a name that has planted you into the centerof relevance in my life, I am a family man and this is an opportunity toprovide my family with new opportunities. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and do not botherto respond, do not destroy my career because you do not approve of myproposal. Please don’t respond to this email if you find yourself not able to assistme, my private email is stewartculo@yahoo.com.hk Sincerely,Stewart Barculo.
