From Mr. Peter Wong Executive Director of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd
This has just happened to me, I signed on to my Gmail account, and sitting in my spam folder was 12 emails sent to me from Mr. Peter Wong! All sent within four minutes of each other!
Here is his email in full:
Dear Friend, I am Mr. Peter Wong Executive Director of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd,HONG KONG. An Iraqi named Besem Faruak, a business man made a numbered fixed deposit of (126,336,8299.38 HK) for 18 calendar months, this is valued to Eight million United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even during the war,four years ago (2005). Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that Besem Faruak, and his family had been killed during the war in Gunfire that hit their home at Mukaradeeb where his personal oil well was. After further investigation it was also discovered that Besem Faruak,did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time we was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Eight million United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me is that according to the laws of my country at the expiration five years six months the funds will revert to the ownership of the HONG KONG Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. My proposal, I am prepared to place you as the next of kin in a position to instruct HANG SENG BANK to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the percentage 50/50. I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line in my involvement in claiming the deposite. I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform the bank of the final closing of the file relating to Besem Faruak, I will then officially communicate with my Bank and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these, all is done. I am aware of the consequences of this proposal.should be interested in executing this with me,indicate your interest by sending me the following: 1. YOUR NAME 2. YOUR RESIDENT ADDRESS 3. YOUR OCCUPATION 4. YOUR PHONE NUMBER 5. DATE OF BIRTH 6. COUNTRY OF RESIDENT Your response with the requested information should be sent to reach me at my personal email address below: peter_1wong (like I was going to give you his edres
) I shall then provide you with more details on this operation when I hear from you. Sincerely, Mr.peter wong [snqtrtkru2j]
That’s it! Complete with no line breaks what so ever!
I’ve had a couple of these email before, but none of them where this persistent and sent me 12 of them!
Interestingly, that string of random letters and numbers is different on each email!
It seems that Mr. Peter Wong has struck before using different email address and wording the email differently, but they all say that he’s from Heng Seng Bank Ltd, which is a genuine bank in Hong Kong

I HAVE JUST GOTTEN MAIL FROM MR.WONG MYSELF PROMISING MILLIONS TO.IHAVE E-MAIL ADRESS,S TO LINK UP WITH HIM,I WILL FIND OUT MORE.
Dear Sir:
I also have recieved such e-mails. I was warned by Phone busters not to respond, but I followed up anyway. The second piece of e-mail included your ID card Mr. Wong. I then went on the internet to the Hang Seng Bank and found your picture with the other directors. this picture matched the ID. As this crime permeates the internet at this point, I urge the bank to contact me to obtain copies of theses e-mails. I have been suckered before. Not again!

I just received a “random” e-mail(10/22/2009)from the same guy! I thought it was pretty “shady”, so I did some research, which is how I ended up here. This is the e-mail he sent me:
Greetings, I am Peter Wong writing from Hong Kong . I am writing you because I want you to join me in a business project worth 44.5M Dollars. You will have a share of 50% after we finish.
Please write me back at my private e-mail hsb79peterwong@yahoo.com.hk for more details. Thanks.

For those of you not able to understand Finnish, let me translate…
Thanks Google Translate!
I have also received e-mail from Mr. Peter Wong.
I believe, ………
Hang Seng Bank Limited is a prestige bank in Hong Kong.
Staff of Hang Seng Bank will NOT use the bank’s name to do personal business deal in internet.
I believe, ………
Should a staff of Hang Seng Bank would like to do personal business deal in the internet, he/she will NOT have the guts to put out the name of Hang Seng Bank. Doesn’t he/she scare of being fired???????????
Will you believe that
an experiened senior staff of Hang Seng Bank will ask help from a stranger in the internet?????????????????????
I have filed a complaint to FBI.
