Subject: Hi from Robert.

Hello,

My name is Robert Burnett. Am in need of the help of a trustworthy person resident in Hong Kong to help me retrieve a very good friend’s funds (which are quite substantial) from the Yorkshire Bank UK, we estimate the amount to be in the region of Two Million, Five hundred thousand Great British Pounds Sterling. He passed away without any next of kin and with our being in jobs which require us to be here full time, I require your help and time for which you will be duly compensated, my friend has a Chinese ancestry which is why we are having so much trouble accessing what is rightfully ours.

My wife and I both intend to move to Hong Kong as soon as this matter is resolved to begin our retirement.

Please let me know if this is something you would be interested in

Kindest regards,
Robert

你好,

我的名字是羅伯特伯內特。 我需要一位居住在香港的值得信賴的人的幫助,幫我從英國約克郡銀行取回一個非常好的朋友的資金(相當可觀),我們估計金額在兩百萬,五百左右 千英鎊。 他在沒有任何近親的情況下去世了,我們的工作需要我們全職在這裡,我需要你的幫助和時間,你將得到應有的補償,我的朋友有中國血統,這就是為什麼我們有這麼多 訪問本應屬於我們的東西很麻煩。

我和妻子都打算在這件事解決後儘快搬到香港開始我們的退休生活。

如果您對此感興趣,請告訴我

最親切的問候,
羅伯特
