Greetings,
I wish you a good day and a happy new year. This message is to bring your attention a situation which has presented itself to me and may be of interest to you.
I am D.B. Goel and I work with Investec in the U.K. In the course of my work I manage the customer portfolio division and have had to deal with many situations and circumstances. This new developement is however a unique one. I will explain the circumstances which brought about this.
In December 2003, an American businessman, who I will not name here, approached us with a view to transfer management of his substantial portfolio to us. As de-facto COO at the time, I advised him according to banking policy as practiced here. In the course of our relating, I got to know many personal details about him. I advised on high yeild bonds and debentures but he was a cautious investor and remained with lower yeild less risk instruments. This we did for almost two years and he seemed pleased with it. In order to keep his business we offered special services reserved only for such clients and he seemed satisfied.
Then in March 2005, my client expressed the need to liquidate his portfolio to execute a transaction in Europe requiring large sums of money. I interviewed him accordingly and dispite all my stated reservations, I was unable to disuade him from his wish. Even with the heavy penalties and charges on unmatured instruments, he was steadfast. The new demands on transparency on money accross borders also had to be considered. Becuase of this, some extra security arrangements were made. Having satisfied all requirements and paying penalties, I made the arrangements for the money, now totaling U.S. $ 35.4 Million, to be transfered to a firm in Amsterdam according to his request. The contact in Amsterdam confirmed the details and that was the end of the matter.
A few weeks into November 2005, the firm in Amsterdam contacted me by phone and asked for any documentation which I have on the client that will aid them in locating his family. I subsequently told him to make such request in writing. This lead to further discussion and I learned the client had not turned up to keep his appointment due to heart attack. The abscence led to a break in communication as no other contact was given by way of a family or other relations in the clients personal data form. This is not unusual in private investment as annonimity is of high priority to many clients. Subsequent investigations by them have found that no family on record exists. This and the fact that he died in testate, left the account on hold for too long. Normally, in situations where an account remains dormant for long periods the firm it is domiciled eventually absorbs it. I feel that I can turn the situation and prevent that from happening.
What I propose is that you and I come together and present you as closest family member. With my file records and a partner, we can have them turn the money over to us. This will require some legal documentation and dedication from both of us but I am 100% sure they will pay the money to us. I would like to stress here that the requirements to carry this through will not come cheap. From what I have gathered, a good attorney will need U.S. $ 47,000.00 to handle the legal end. Unfortunately I do not have that kind of money, so we will have to pool our resources to get that done. Once that is done the firm in Amsterdam will be obligated by law to transfer ownership to you. I offer you full partnership meaning we share all responsibilities and benefits equally. This will take approximately three weeks to conclude and the money will be ours without any legal complications now or in future.
I hope that these terms are satisfatory. If so, please contact me at the more private email dgoel at mail.com.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
D.B. Goel.
