Good day Friend,

regards to movement of funds using a professional means. The sum of $35
million is what we are talking about in this deal. Fund Source which origin
is Hong Kong here belongs to a business tycoon from Syrian who died in the
Syrian civil war and he happens to be our noble client here in my bank. Be
informed that being a foreigner gives you the privileged to stand in as my
deceased client beneficiary as my deceased client had no relation following
all details we have about him as our normal everyday client.
I am very confident that we will be able to build the trust that is needed
to succeed this deal and all that I need for the time been is your
willingness and commitment so that we can end this in the next one week.
What you need to understand about this transaction is that I will make sure
that it passes through all international banking laws regards to this I
will take care of all the expenses and the cost of retaining the service of
my Attorney to give the transaction the proper documentation that is
required to perfect the finishing.
Your only obligation in this transaction is to accept to stand in as the
only existing relative of my deceased client and you will have to set up
offshore account that can accommodate these funds with any principal bank
which I will give you information later. Please note that whatever you
shall spend in opening the account you shall deduct it from the $35 million
before we share 50/50, secondly the account will be opened in your name and
you shall be the only one to have access to this account.
I hope that the above is well clear to you, I will want you to send a
confirmation of interest to this deal so that more details and deal
execution plans can be made known to you.
Awaiting positive response from you as regards to the above.

Hi Charles,
Thanks so much for the detailed breakdown — I really appreciate you taking the time to explain everything.

Hi Charles,
Thanks so much for the detailed breakdown — I really appreciate you taking the time to explain everything. I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and I can see how it might make sense from a legal and fiduciary standpoint. Honestly, it’s kind of exciting to think about being involved with something this substantial, especially one that crosses international borders.
I’ve been working on a few offshore account setups lately for a client in the energy sector — Houston has a lot of oil and gas litigation, and sometimes those funds get tied up in complicated structures. I used to work with a bank in Abu Dhabi that had a very strict compliance process, and I found it quite fascinating how they handled legacy fund transfers. That’s probably why I’m so keen to get into this — it feels like a real-world application of what I’ve studied.
Just to confirm: you mentioned the account will be opened in my name and that I’ll have sole access, correct? Also, do you have any preference for a specific jurisdiction or bank? And could you let me know what kind of documentation you’d need from me to proceed — like a notarized affidavit or a power of attorney?
I’d love to hear more about how the 50/50 split will be managed, especially around tax implications. I’ve never dealt with inheritance-style fund transfers before, and I want to make sure I’m fully informed.
Looking forward to your thoughts.
Best,
Danny

Dear Friend,
Taking a further step into this business deal we shall both exchange form
of identifications meaning you are requested to send a scan form of ID
which is also very important for for this business deal so I am awaiting to
receive your ID so that other information can be made known to you as the

what is expected of both of us from this deal as a little explanation of
our position on this deal will go along way enable us agree on what is
expected from each other.
You should understand that we are not going to use any of your old existing
bank account, as we will require a new bank account to be set up by you in
Europe with a bank that have the same Telex type with my bank, so that the
funds can be protected during transfer to make it an in house transfer.
When funds are transferred from bank of same telex type no RED FLAGS are
usually raised because it is seen as an in house transfer thus there will
be no attention or monitoring by any world monetary control agency.
I think much of agreement signing will not be need although we have to
agree on what we have to do and our responsibilities on this deal but the
most important of it all is trust , honesty, commitment and confidential as
I am still in active service so what ever is related among us should be
treated with great confidentiality.
Stated below are some terms/information for your kind attention:
1. I will take full responsibilities of all that is needed to move funds
out of my bank here in Hong Kong.
2. An offshore account is needed to be set up by you with a bank that have
the same Telex Type with my bank .
3. We shall share 50/50 on arrival of funds in your account.
4. You have to agree to take responsibility of send my own part of the
funds to a nominated bank account that I shall provide to you when funds
finally gets to your account.
5. We must both agree that this business deal MUST be kept confidential and
not a third party should be involved.
If the above is well understood and accepted I will then give you details
of the bank That you are to contact to set up the offshore bank account.
I await to read from you soon.

Hi Mr. Charles,
Thanks for the detailed breakdown — I’ve read it thoroughly and it makes sense from a structural standpoint. Honestly, I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, especially after hearing about some of the changes in offshore banking regulations lately. I mean, I used to handle a lot of oil and gas disputes in Houston, and I’ve seen how hard it is to move large sums without proper documentation — but I also know how much trust is needed in these kinds of transactions. That’s why I’m genuinely interested.
I’m a little concerned about the Telex type requirement — I’m not sure how that works exactly, especially with European banks. Do you mind clarifying what "same Telex type" means? I’ve never worked directly with that kind of banking infrastructure before, and I don’t want to make a mistake that could delay things. Also, could you confirm whether the account will be opened in a jurisdiction like Switzerland or the UK — just so I know what kind of compliance rules we’d be dealing with?
And lastly, I have a small personal thing: my wife passed away a few years ago, and I’ve been trying to stay active in the community. I’ve been volunteering at the local law library — maybe that’s a little off-topic, but I’ve found that talking about money and trust helps me process things better.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best regards,

Thank you for your urgent response, bank with the same teletype will make
the transaction easier without the monitoring agency notice the moving of
the large sum that is the reason you will be setting up the offshore
account to make the transfer look like an in house transfer ok.
That is the meaning of teletype and again before I directed you to the bank
where you are going to open this offshore account I shall like to ask you
some basic questions, as the funds we are talking about here is quite a
large sum so I will want to be fully convinced that you are capable of
handling the funds.
1.What do you do for a living?
2.What is your yearly income?
3. Are you married? And if yes do you have kids?
4. Have you handled any business involving a huge sum?
Get back to me with regards to the above questions.

Hi Charles,
Thanks so much for the detailed info — I really appreciate the clarity and the confidence you’ve shown in this process. Honestly, it’s a bit of a surprise to me, but I can see how this could work within the framework of international banking practices. I’ve been thinking about the telex type thing, and I’m wondering — is there a particular bank in Europe that’s known for having a similar telex code to Hong Kong banks? I’ve heard some of the smaller EU banks use older systems, so maybe we could go with one of those?
Also, just to be thorough — I’m a practicing oil and gas litigation lawyer in Houston. I’ve worked on a few big money cases involving cross-border transactions, so I have a fair amount of experience with financial structures and due diligence. That said, I’ve never handled anything quite like this before, so I’d like to know more about the actual transfer timeline — how long does it typically take from the moment the funds are released at the Hong Kong bank until they appear in the offshore account?
And finally — I’ve been meaning to update my neighbor about the new patio I built last week. It’s a modest thing, but I finally had it finished after two years of delays. I just got the contractor to sign off on it. Not directly related, but it makes me feel like I’m building something solid — just like this deal.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Charles,
Thanks for the bank details and the clear outline of the deal — I appreciate you being so thorough. I’ve just sent over to BBVA’s customer service via email, letting them know I’m setting up an offshore account. I mentioned your name and the telex type requirement, and they’ve been pretty responsive — even offered to send over a form to complete, which is great.
On a personal note, I’ve been thinking about how much I’ve missed the old days — back in Houston, I used to work weekends at the oil field office, and the way they’d track cash movements still makes me feel like I’m in a real business deal. That kind of precision and trust, I guess, is what this feels like.
Back to your questions:
1. I’m a litigation attorney, specializing in oil and gas disputes — so I work with large sums and complex structures.
2. My annual income is about $180,000 — not massive, but consistent.
3. I’m single, no kids — just a small apartment and a lot of quiet nights.
4. Yes, I’ve handled several high-value transactions, including cross-border settlements, so I’m confident I can manage this responsibly.
Just wanted to confirm — when you say “wire $35m without wasting time,” does that mean it’s a one-time disbursement, or will there be a schedule? Also, do you have a specific timeline in mind for when the funds should arrive?
Looking forward to your thoughts.

Hi Thomas,
Thanks so much for the detailed bank info — I’ve just reached out to BBVA’s customer service via email, and I’ll be honest, the name "Maria Diaz Rodrigues" was a bit of a curveball since I didn’t see that in their public directory, but I’ll follow up with her directly as soon as I get a response. I’m actually surprised at how fast you’ve structured this — makes me think it’s a real opportunity, not just a quick pitch.
I’ve been thinking about my day-to-day life lately — I’ve been working on a case involving a pipeline dispute in the Permian, and it’s been a wild ride. The oil markets are moving fast, and honestly, I’ve found myself wondering what kind of financial flexibility someone like me would need to stay ahead. That’s why I’m so interested — it feels like a real chance to step into something meaningful.
Before I move forward, I’d love to clarify a few things:
1. Is the offshore account meant to be used strictly for the $35 million transfer, or could it also serve as a holding vehicle for future investments?
2. Do you have any documentation or legal structure in place for the transfer — like a trust or escrow agreement?
3. Is there a specific timeline you’re aiming for, given that the wire has to happen "without monitoring agency notice"?
I’m genuinely excited about this, and I’m happy to help with anything from reviewing paperwork to coordinating with the bank. Just let me know how you’d like to proceed.
Looking forward to your thoughts.

Hey Thomas,
Thanks so much for the details — I just got back from trying to contact BBVA Bank through [redacted] I sent a message explaining I’d like to open an offshore account with them, referencing Mrs. Maria Diaz Rodrigues and the Alicante address. I even included a note about the "same teletype" you mentioned — I figured that might help since I’ve been reading up on how some offshore operations use older banking protocols.
Funny thing — I’m actually in Houston right now, and yesterday I had to run a quick oil litigation case at the courthouse. One of the judges asked if I could clarify something about a gas pipeline dispute, and I had to take a 45-minute break just to get a coffee. That’s how things go when you’re deep in the legal weeds.
Anyway, I’m still waiting to hear back from BBVA, and I wanted to confirm — do you mind if I send a follow-up to them tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. EST? I don’t want to rush anything, but I really want to get this going. Also, just to be sure — is the $35 million transfer meant to be wired directly from the offshore account, or do we need to set up a sub-account first?
I’m genuinely excited about this — I’ve always dreamed of having a little offshore play in my portfolio.

Hey Thomas,
Thanks for the quick reply — I just got a response from BBVA’s customer service team. They said they can’t process an offshore account under the name Maria Diaz Rodrigues unless there’s a verified teletype protocol in place, which they confirmed is still active on their Alicante branch. They also mentioned that any funds sent to an offshore account must go through a pre-authorized wire from a domestic bank, and that BBVA has a special form for “legacy banking” operations — which I assume is what you’re referring to.
Funny how this ties back to my oil litigation days. Yesterday, I had to explain to a judge why a wellhead dispute was actually rooted in outdated pipeline routing — and it reminded me how some systems still rely on old protocols. I mean, who knew that offshore banking had its own “golden age” of teletype confirmations?
So, just to confirm: are we still using BBVA’s legacy teletype system to initiate the wire? And do you have the exact wire instructions or reference number for the offshore account you’re setting up? Also, could you send me the name of the offshore agent or entity we’re working with? I want to make sure I can get all the paperwork in order before the transfer — I don’t want to miss anything.
I’m really excited about this — maybe we can even schedule a call after the next oil court hearing. I just got a notification that my next case is on Friday, and I’ll be at the courthouse until 6 p.m.

Hey Thomas,
Thanks for the quick reply — I just got a response from BBVA Bank! They said they’ll need to verify the address and name under “Maria Diaz Rodrigues” and that they’re currently processing a request from Alicante, Spain. The teletype protocol you mentioned — I’ve been reading up on it in old oil industry filings, and it’s actually a real thing in some legacy banking systems. Funny how it’s still used in certain offshore setups.
I’m thinking, though — since I’m based in Houston and have a lot of oil and gas litigation work, maybe I can help with a compliance check before the funds move? Like, do they have any documentation required for the wire from BBVA to the offshore account? Also, you mentioned the $35M transfer — is it direct to the account, or do we need to set up a holding structure first?
I’ve been trying to keep things organized, and I actually just finished a deposition today at the Houston courthouse — another oil pipeline dispute, similar to the one I was working on yesterday. The judge was pretty intense about cross-examining the flow of data, so I’ve got a real feel for how things move in these operations.
Just wanted to confirm the next steps — is there a specific time frame you’re aiming for to complete the transfer?

Hey Thomas,
I just got back from BBVA — actually, I didn’t get a reply yet, but I did send a follow-up at 9 a.m. EST, and I’m still waiting. I even included a copy of the teletype reference you mentioned — the one about the 1970s offshore protocol — just in case they’re still using old systems. I’ve been reading up on it, and it’s fascinating how some of these legacy operations still run on paper trails.
Funny thing — I was at the courthouse today, and I had to explain to a judge about a gas line dispute involving a 1998 pipeline agreement. One of the witnesses kept asking about “the original documentation,” and I had to pull out a folder from my old oil litigation case. It’s wild how much of this stuff still depends on paper trails and handwritten notes.
So, just to clarify — do you mind if I send another message to BBVA this afternoon, maybe at 2 p.m. EST? I want to make sure I’m not missing anything. Also, just to double-check — was the $35 million meant to be sent directly to the Alicante account, or do we need to go through a holding structure first? I’d hate to make a mistake on that.
I really believe this could work. Honestly, I’ve always wanted a little offshore play in my portfolio — it feels like a smart move, especially with how volatile the oil market is these days.

Hey Thomas,
Thanks for the message — I just got a reply from BBVA Bank. They said they’ve reviewed the details and confirmed the Alicante address is active under Mrs. Maria Diaz Rodrigues. They also mentioned that the “same teletype” reference was actually part of an old compliance protocol used in 1978 during a real estate audit in Spain — which, honestly, makes me smile. I had to look up the historical context, and it turns out there’s a small archive at the Bank of Spain that still has the original records.
I’m not being serious about anything — I’m just a lawyer in Houston, and I’ve been reading up on offshore structures for a while now. That oil litigation case I mentioned earlier? I had to go back and re-read the pipeline dispute docs because the judge asked about a gas flow calculation — it’s wild how much detail goes into these things.
Anyway, back to your request — I sent the BBVA response to you and included a copy of the email thread. Just to confirm: is the $35 million meant to be transferred directly to the offshore account, or do we need a holding structure first? Also, do you have a preferred transfer method — wire, escrow, or something else?
I’d love to get this moving, Thomas. Honestly, I’ve always wanted to have a little offshore play — even if it’s just for fun.
