Email #1, from Gerhard:

Bank Name: Skyward Financial Bank
Bank Email: skyinfo@skywardfbint.com
Board of Management: Mr. Gerhard Lochner
Bank address: Adlerstrasse 24, 4052. Basel-Stadt, Switzerland.
CONTACT PERSON: Mr. Gerhard Lochner
(Director General of Operations)
Head of Private and Business Customers
 
   Welcome to Skyward Financial Bank Banking Dept., one of the world's leading online banking services, capable of transferring large amounts of money anywhere in the world on behalf of our clients within 48 hours of making a deposit online.
 
   As you do not have an operational account with our bank, we hereby encourage you to duly complete the account application form attached to this email and return a copy to us via email attachment so that our accounting department can begin processing your new account with us dear bank. Below are the different types of online accounts that we operate in the banking department of Skyward Financial Bank. Try to specify exactly what type of account you want in your application form.
 
   1. Savings Plus reserve account:
 
   account features; *Requires account opening/deposit of €650.00 (EURO) (760,184 USD)*Direct access to online banking 24/7*Maximum transfer is limited to 1,000,000.00 EURO (one million euros) per month.
 
 
   2. Current Plus Reserve Account:
   account features; *Requires account opening/deposit of €1,200.00 (EURO) (1,403.31 USD)*24/7 direct online banking access*Maximum transfer is limited to €2,000,000.00 (two million euros) per month.
 
 
   3. Advantage Gold Reserve Account:
   account features; Requires account opening/deposit of €2,400.00 (EURO) (2,806.61 USD)* 24/7 direct online banking access* No minimum withdrawal fee * Multi-currency transactions are allowed * Accepts joint holding. The maximum transfer is limited to €3,000,000.00 (three million euros) per month.
 
 
   4. Diamond Reserve Account:
   account features; *Requires account opening/deposit of €4,200 (EURO) (4,912.32 USD)*Direct access to online banking 24/7*7% interest per minimum*No minimum withdrawal fee*Multi-currency transactions allowed *Accepts joint holding*None maximum transfer amount limits. (This means you can transfer any amount at once).
 
 
   This minimum refundable deposit for your account opening/activation is mandatory for the following reasons:
 
   1.) Due to your non-resident status you are not subject to local tax here and therefore the cost of clearing any monies that would be deposited into your account must be present in your account in order for it to become active.
 
   2.) If the amount of money you are depositing is above the minimum threshold of €45,000,000.00 (EURO), such a transaction will be subject to scrutiny by the regulators here and questions will be asked about the “clean source of funds credited” to an account with a balance of €0.00 and no transaction history. There may be delays that may take up to 90 days to resolve. Your account therefore requires initial setup and activation fees.
 
   3.) Once your account opening balance/account activation fees have been received and your account is fully activated, the accounting department will promptly issue you with your account number and online account access PIN, from which you can transfer money or pay bills from the internet. (This account number cannot be released to you until the minimum refundable deposit for your account activation has been received.)
 
 
   After successfully completing our account application form, send us a scanned copy immediately. You will then be instructed on how to transfer payment for our refundable deposit, which will be used to activate your online bank account, depending on the account of your choice. We promise to offer you one of the world's best online banking services you.


 Endeavor to complete the attached processing form and send it back to us along with confirmation of a copy of your ID (such as an international passport, driver's license or other proof of your ID for record-keeping purposes only).
 
   Thank you for choosing Skyward Financial Bank Inc Services as your financial institution. Rest assured of our professional services, get advice accordingly, thank you for your cooperation.
 
 
   Note that Skyward Financial Bank Inc. reserves the right to deny your request if it discovers any irregularities. When setting up an online offshore account, your physical presence is not required as all transactions are processed online. For this reason, it is also known as an online account. Your account will be set up immediately, subject to the speed with which you return your online application form and the minimum opening balance required to activate your account with that bank.
 
   We look forward to maintaining a mutually beneficial relationship between our organization and your good self.
 
Mr Gerhard
