Victim Location 95121

Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

Recently being contacted by a person who claimed he is a CEO of Standard Chartered Bank. USA. He asked me I can claim on $***. Here is what he stated, “I can assure you that I would play my part here when your application is referred to the bank, to direct you base on my influence/experience in the banking sector so you can be approved as the next of Kin to the account of your late relative. Please do not forget that when money has been transferred to you, the distribution of funds should be as we agreed in the ratio of 50/50.” I was then asked to contact a third person who works at FTD (Foreign Transfer Department). According to the scammer, this person plays a important role as he could process all the legal documents (e.g., proof of identification, certificate, etc.) to transfer funds out of the country into my account. I dont know if it’s true but it looks like a scheme.
