PERSONALLY FOR YOU

With Due Respect,

I am Simon Ridley a staff of Standard Bank,London branch, United Kingdom. I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed under our banks management three years ago, and I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail.

I am contacting you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you. In the year 2007,the subject matter; came to our bank to engage in business discussions.He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of Ten million United States dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf.

I decided to treat his case personally; I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto Chief investment officer of the bank, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank.We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favoured route in my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice, We spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over One million United States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments.

In November 2008, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Finland.Where he said, he is investing with a Firm that is building a housing estate outside Helsinki for the government of Finland. He directed that I liquidate the investment and deposit the funds with a security firm. I informed him that Standard Bank would have to make special arrangements to have this done and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained about the charges but later came around when I explained to him the complexities of the task he was asking of us.

Cash movement across boarders has become especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds available to a security firm. I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited with the security firm. The Security Firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was deposited with the security firm. The Customer told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had, this transpired around 26th February 2009.In June last year, we got a call from the security firm informing us about the inactivity of that particular p

This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit at the security firm, and I could not understand why the Customer had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate the Customer. I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of Standard Bank. Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently our client was dead. A person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in canne, in Southern part of France. The body was identified and the cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin to alert them about the situation and also to come forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from conventional processes.

In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with us means no one will know of its existence,accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank also gives the choice to depositors of having their mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; the deceased died without a testate. In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem. It is this investigation that

My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation.What this means,after investigating the last batch of names forwarded to us as possible relatives, we have come to the conclusion that Our dear late fellow died with no known or identifiable family member.This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit.

According to practice, The Security Firm will by the end of this year broadcast a request for statements of claim to Standard Bank, failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to Standard Bank. This will result in the money entering the Standard Bank accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the private banking division.

This will not happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those that occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the general direction of what I propose. There is Ten million dollars deposited in a security firm, I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as Standard Bank is concerned.

The transaction with our late customer concluded when I sent the funds to the security firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due process. The security Firm has no single idea of what's the history or nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that come forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this man's family; they have investigated for months and have found no family. The investigation has come to an end.

My proposal;I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct the security Firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relative. Upon receipt of the deposit I am prepared to share the money with you. That is,I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you and share the proceeds with you in a percentage we will arrive at taking into consideration our individual level commitment.I would have gone ahead to ask that the funds be released to me,but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. But presenting you as a relative with the right to claim the deposit as a next of kin will mask my involvement and participation in diverting the deposit for personal use.You will get all the documents needed to effect this claim immediately you notify me of your acceptance to claim this deposit for our mutual benefit.

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 the deceased. I will then officially communicate with The Security Firm and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things all is done.

The alternative would be for us to have The Security Firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money from The Security Company. We can fine-tune this based on our interactions. I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector.

I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones'way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control of my destiny. This chances won't pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking.

I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a luck that has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Let's share the blessing. If you find yourself able to work with me, contact me through this email account. If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official email account. Contact me only through the numbers I will provide for you and also through this email address. I do not want any direct link between you and myself. My official lines are not secured lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality Management P

Please,again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence.

Thanks for your anticipated cooperation.

Million) deposited in a security firm whose depositor died in mid 2007.As
the Head, Foreign (International) Operations Unit, the investigating team
has for the past years been fruitless to locate my late client, If you are
familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services
usually prefer anonymity and also some levels of detachment from
conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. If
nobody comes forward to claim the deposit, the Security firm will by the
end of next financial year in 2011 revert the deposit back to CAL Bank.
This will result in the money entering the CAL Bank accounting system.

The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for

security firm has no single idea of the history or nature of the deposit.
They are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party
that come forward. I would have gone ahead to ask that the funds be
released to me, but that will draw a straight line to me and my
involvement in claiming the deposit. But introducing you as a relative
with the right to claim the deposit as a next of kin will mask my
involvement and participation in diverting the deposit for personal use. I
assure you that all the documents needed to effect this claim will be
given to you immediately you notify me of your acceptance to partner with
me in claiming this deposit for our mutual benefit. I am ready to
introduce you to my bank as the closest surviving relation; upon
successful delivery of the deposit to you.

We share the money equally 50/50.

Dear Partner,

I guess this letter may come to you as surprise since I had no previous correspondence with you.

I am the Chairman of the Electoral Commission Ghana (EC). I got your contact in my search for a reliable person to handle a very confidential transaction involving the transfer of the sum of $14.500.000 Dollars (Fourteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) the above fund is not connected with arms, drugs or money laundering. It is the product of an over invoiced contract awarded in 2008 by (EC) to a foreign company for the supply of electoral materials that were used for conducting the 2008 elections.

The contract has long been executed and payment of the actual contract amount has been made to the foreign contractor leaving the balance of $14.5 million which my colleagues and I now want to transfer out of Ghana into a reliable foreign account for our personal use.

As civil servants we are not allowed to run foreign accounts.
Hence we have chosen to front and support you as the beneficiary to this funds. If you are interested in the proposal kindly get back to me by sending me your letter of acceptance along with your direct telephone and fax numbers, we have decided to share the money in the following percentage, 60% for us 30% for you the account owner and 10% for all local and international expenses that may arise in the course of this transaction. Further details about this transaction will be discussed in subsequent correspondence.

Note also that the particular nature of your business is irrelevant to this transaction and this transaction is expected to be concluded within 5 working days since all local contacts and arrangements are in place for a smooth and successful conclusion of this transaction.

Contact me via email with your contact telephone and fax numbers, so that I can call you for a discussion.

Thank you as I await your response.

yours faithfully,
Dr.Kwadwo Afari

Setup a Virtual PC that's running on XP, install the oopic compiler in the
Virtual PC, write the code, connect the oopic to the laptop via serial port,
etc. all the basic stuff. The http://www.oopic.com/ site has all this
information. If you haven't noticed, there was a similar topic on this not
long ago.

You can hook up an LCD to your OOPic and let the LCD display the "Address"
property of what ever object you're using to control your LED. I'm not an
OOpic pro, Im doing the best I can to help. Most of our active and "best"
members (I guess) are "laying back" for a while, after a recent "dispute".

Not completely sure, but V4,5, and 6 you refer to are the IDE
(Integrated Development Environment.) Your chips have an 'A' version
of the firmware.

Its' ALL compatible!
V6 is apparently pulled from the site. I think that you can use ANY
version of IDE with ANY chip version. HOWEVER you cannot use chip
commands for any chip version LATER than what you have.
You must use only commands available for chip version A. You can use
any version IDE but you must confine yourself to commands used in
your chip version. See the Manual for a list of Objects available for
each chip version.

I heard about sending 'em back and including a few bucks and getting

Surely you jest. There is no help. We are all so very alone...

Thanks for the reply Ian.

I have ordered a MAX220 based TTL-RS232 convertor & intend to go the
route you suggest... anything else looks full of potential pitfalls.

I went for: http://www.tronisoft.com/4201.php

At least I understand RS-232 & this converter comes with it's own
basic terminal program & loads of documentation including VB6 examples.

So at the moment I am waiting for the Old Laptop with a serial &
parallel port, the TTL-RS232 converter & VB6 (I hadn't used VB for
yonks, when I tried to load my old VB CD it just i/o errored, so have
got myself VB6). Then hopefully the fun can begin.

I couldn't resist buying this for a tenner off Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260262756076

RF 433MHz Transmitter and Receiver Module Pair.
Manufactured by RF Solutions.
Transmitter - AM-RT4-433
* Transmit range up to 100m
* CMOS/TTL input
* No adjustable components
* Very stable operating frequency
* Low current consumption
* Low spurious emissions (-35dBc)
* Wide operating voltage (2-14v)

Receiver - AM-HRR3-433
* Compact hybrid AM Receiver module
* Very high frequency stability (with no adjustable components)
* Receiving range up to 50 metres
* CMOS/TTL compatible output
* Single 5V supply.
* Low current consumption.

So when I have the hard wired serial link worked out, I will play with
this next... I'm thinking wiring the receiver up to the RS232 - TTL
convertor at Laptop end.

Cheers,
Steve.

We are here not here to give flat out answers. We are here to HELP get
those answers. Just asking for flat out answers is usually rude. You
should read up on the basics of programming an OOPic and how to use the
SRF05.

Please excuse me for replying to an old message, but I'm still trying
to figure out my next move...

This week I dragged out my old oopic (2,vb1.0), only to find out it
won't talk to my laptop. With the help of people here, I've been
trying to decide whether to rewire it, upgrade it, or replace it. I'd
just about decided to stick a new one on the credit card. However, it
looks like even the latest versions have usb interface problems, and
the software won't run on vista. Now I find out current units are
going to legacy status, even before they're operational on current
platforms (I've never seen a product go to legacy before the new
product is even designed before). It appears the support structure
for this product has gone to pieces.

I loved my old oopic2. And I'd love to replace it with something
similar. But I've put my credit card back in my wallet until I'm sure
I can buy something that works and will be supported. So my questions
are -

1. Is there a product or package of products that supports usb and
vista? Will it continue to be supported for a few years?
2. If not, is there going to be a product in the near future that
reliably supports usb and vista? If so, is there an expected date?
3. If not, is there a competing product with the same capabilities
that is currently available?

Thanks
Chris
