United Overseas Bank (UOB) was referenced in unsolicited emails that appear to be fraudulent or bogus. United Overseas Bank is almost certainly not involved nor likely to approve the use of its name in the e-mails. This site contains a large collection of fraud and bogus emails that attempt to scam the recipient into sending money for non-existent fortunes, inheritances, cases of money, business partnerships, lottery winnings, etc. Don't be fooled by official looking documents (e.g. phony governmental certificates, checks and passports) as scammers make a living forging these things. If you get an e-mail that is similar to one in our collection, you should delete it. NEVER pay any fees of any kind. If you are victimized by the fraud, there is not much that you can do. You may want to visit other sites to learn more.

From: "LEE CHENG" <foreclosed_111@yahoo.com.sg> To: sg@ Subject: PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2006 08:27:00 -0600
Good Day,*
My name is MR LEE CHENG, i trained and work as an external auditor for the United Overseas Bank (UOB) Singapore,working as part of a bigger team that covers the entire Asian region. I had taken pains to find your contact through personal endeavors.
On routine audit check last month, I discovered some investment accounts that had been dormant for the least twelve years.All the accounts belong to a single holder (NAME WITH HELD) with monies totaling a little above $15.7 million United States Dollars plus interest.
Banking regulation/legislation in Singapore demand that I notify the fiscal authorities after a statutory time period of twelve years when dormant accounts of this type are called in by the monetary regulatory bodies.The above set of facts underscores my reason of writing and making the following proposing.
My investigations of the said account reveals that the investor died in 1993 the exact time the account were last operated. I can confirm with certainty that the said investor died intertate and no next~of~kin to his estate has been found or has come forward all these years. I am of the settled conviction that using my insider leverage, I, working with you can secure the funds in the account for us instead of allowing it pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the Government of Singapore.
This exactly is why I crave your participation and co-operation.I have seized all relevant documents (legal and Banking) that will facilitate our putting you forward as the claimant/beneficiary of the funds and ultimately transfer the money to any account nominated by you.Of course you shall be handsomely rewarded for your part in this transaction as the people.I am working with are prepared to allocate a 20% slice of the total funds for your efforts. I shall however leave out the final details of this transaction till i receive an affirmation of your desire to participate.
Be assured that my colleagues and I are on top of the situation all the time and there will be no risk whatsoever if you agree to come on board. Needless to say,UTMOST CONFIDENTIALITY is of vital importance if we are to successfully reap the immense benefits of this transaction.
To maintain the level of security required to see this transaction to come to a successful conclusion, I have intentionally left out the finer details.Please contact me immediately through my email address whether or not you are interested in this deal. If you are not, it will enable me scout for another foreign partner to carry out this deal. But where you are interested, contact me through my email address below, as time is of the essence in this business.
I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation.Forward your FULL NAME,DATE OF BIRTH,TELEPHONE NUMBER,FAX NUMBER,EMAIL ADDRESS AND POSTAL ADDRESS to my confidential email addresses below.
I do expect you prompt response.*
Thank you,
MR. LEE CHENG.
