Dear ***

I am please to inform you that your claim has been confirmed vetted and approved for payment by our compliance department, a Kas Bank draft for the sum of USD$32M (Thirty Two Million United States Dollars) has been raised in your name. This draft has been sent to British Treasury Department office for the compulsory stamp duty and funds release approval and authorization before we can release the funds to you.
The stamp duty approval and authorization as stated above is compulsory and a mandatory requirement before we can release the funds to you. Without this procedure the bank draft drawn in your name will not be honored by any bank in your home country. The cost of the Stamp duty approval and authorization is GB£4300 (Four Thousand Three Hundred British Pounds Sterling), you are to pay this amount to British Treasury Department as the Stamp Duty Fee.

It will take 24hours to validate the original bank draft and secure payment authorization therefore the earlier you are able to make the payment to British Treasury Department the earlier will the release of the bank draft to you be approved. It is important you confirm that you receive this mail as soon as possible.

Yours truly, Dan Polzin

Inheritance scam

Again, an inheritance scam. Various people are offered 18,5 million USD as inheritance from a hitherto unknown family member.

Upfront costs to be paid vary from 1,500 USD to 5,600 GBP.

Naturally, there is no inheritance.

The name used in this case is DAN POLZIN, working at the Clearing Dept of KAS BANK.

Naturally, there is no DAN POLZIN at KAS BANK!
