Creep #1 of 16 reported this month 10/2007
Dear John Doe
Thank you for your interest to work with us,
in re-profiling funds over 25 million dollars.I am in constant
touch with (MK) in Russia
and I have his approval to proceed with you. We will try to confirm
your honesty and ability to handle this project professionally.
Please, be assured that this is a legitimate business deal but we
need to be very discreet in our activities because of political
tensions in Russia.
Before I am able to give out the information that will enable you
access confidential accounts of our investment portfolio in our
offshore bank, I would need some information as follows:
(1) Are you familiar with offshore banking operations? (2) If you have problems, do they affect the activities you undertake with us as an individual rather than a corporate entity? (3) Have you handled large funds, and how successfully? All the answers will be kept very confidential. I must explain why we are asking these questions: If you do have existing profile problems, we may end up inheriting your backlog thus creating a problem where none exist. We intend to liquidate a large investment, and take the capital appreciation derivatives from the existing portfolio to provide a new investment fund, under your management for our future foreign investments, thus negating any requirements for declaration of process for income generation. However, if you do have issues prior to this, it puts anything you do in the light, and thus puts us in uncomfortable situation. As you see, our assets are under serious scrutiny in Switzerland, Russia, Britain and while we have excess of 1 billion euros, we are unable to liquidate them. It is obvious that the political situation in Russia will not improve, and we are expecting the tax authorities in Russia to descend on us like they did to other political detainees, demanding for bogus taxes as an excuse to sell off part of our company/subsidiaries to their cronies.. We do not have to wait until we are in their webbed trap, hence we decided to act now with your anticipated assistance. The funds being liquidated is the capital appreciation derivatives which arise from independent Investments. It is a legitimate operation but we want it done quietly through a non-traditional source like you. Hence answer the questions in honesty, and let us know if we are comfortable with you. We are trying to ensure that you do not put us in any trouble, and likewise we do not do same to you. We shall provide you with an input as an entity with no history to the investment, only as a management consultant. Everybody must be safe now and in the future, hence the questions. We need to move funds from this portfolio and we can not get the funds on our own without arousing authorities in Russia. To avoid this we need to completely re-profile the funds from the portfolio in your name so as to turn away Russia and their ally from us. The complete amount available for you for re-profiling is presently about 95.1 million euros and the 7% we promised to pay you still stands. You as the management consultant will need to communicate with our private bankers for the formal liquidation of the capital appreciation derivatives from the known and existing portfolio under authority as the management consultant to (MK) Investment Portfolio. You can move the funds by wire transfers through a dedicated confidential bank access channels that the bank will provide you. I will let you access the investment portfolio (bank account ) if you indicate that you can be trusted enough to keep the information to yourself as a secret. (There will be a non disclosure confidentiality agreement between you and me) If all works well and we have a perfect agreement signed and sealed, then I will require you to move the funds to a numbered account we will provide you in Cayman Island and you keep the 7% of the capital appreciation funds as agreed in any bank of your choice in your country. Please write back promptly. I will also suggest you visit this news sites on the internet to be better informed about (MK) new plan and why we need to proceed quickly. http://www.oxfordstudent.com/mt2003wk4/news/beyond_the_bubble... AS QUOTED IN THE SITE :The country's leading oil magnate, Mikhail Khodorsky, has announced from prison that he is to quit business to launch a democratic political opposition to President Vladimir Putin Regards Alexander Shannin |
Creep #2 |

embarrassment, I am ALEXANDER SHANNIN and I represent Mr. Mikhail Khordokovsky the C.E.O of Yukos Oil Company in Russia. I have a very sensitive and confidential brief from my boss to ask for your partnership in re-profiling funds. I will give the details, but in summary, the funds are coming via privatbank corresponding bank in europe. This is a legitimate transaction. You will be paid 7% for your management fees.If you are interested, please write backand provide me with your confidential email address and I will provide further details and instructions. Please keep this confidential. we cannot afford more political problems. Finally, please note that this must be concluded within two weeks. Please write back promptly.

Dear John,
As soon as you forward the requested
information, the lawyer shall depose an affidavit with the High
Court for the change of beneficiary from late Harley Brown to your
name. This is to ensure legal transfer of all documents to your name
as the new Benefactor to the deposited funds here at the Bank.
The Court Affidavit would give you the legal status to receive the funds in your Bank account for us without being questioned by your Bank and your country's financial authorities. Upon transfer of beneficiary to your name, the attorney shall apply to Royal Bank of Scotland for necessary approvals from the Board of Directors for the Fund Release Order and subsequent transfer of our funds to your Bank account for us.
Please get back to me.
