It is a scam...I know because I was emailed from Allied Irish Bank and Citic Trust Bank. I was also told that the amount in question was the same and so was the late Mrs. Eich. Those ppl should be ashamed of themselves to try to cheat ppl out of their money. Also, they need to be prosecuted for their actions
Yes, you should be wise enough to know there is citic trust bank plc in UK, its an affiliate of citic bank of china.

Go to this site www.ecitic.com to confirm
I disagree with Lyssa Allen based on findings below:

Citic Trust Bank was founded over 50 years ago and has established a reputation as one of the leading foreign-owned banks in London, offering a full range of banking facilities to both commercial customers and private clients. Our service is based on traditional values and truly personal service, assisted by the latest technology.

Originally formed to service the Chinese communities in the UK, our customers now range across a wide range of nationalities and ethnic groups across the globe. Our approach has always been one of putting the customer first in all that we do. Each customer has an Account Manager to whom they can speak directly, and who has the time and expertise to offer a truly personal service.

Whatever your needs, we will be delighted to discuss how Citic Trust can help you to achieve your ambitions.
Well, i do not what to say in regards to this but i could vividly remember that i already had a dealing with them two years ago and everything was successful.But what i will have to say here is that everybody should be careful as on the internet, anything can happen as banks can easily be impersonated.But citic trust bank plc really exist in UK.

For:Citic Trust Bank.
I am currently receiving the same emails involving the sum of 9, 700, 000 GBP. As is the supposed heir to
the late Ms. Eich.
They have requested a payment of $17 hundred plus dollars to release said money to me. I do believe this to be a scam as it follows too many known scam practices, only to a higher degee than prior attempts.
Mine is from a Mr. James Cheong.
This has to be viewed as dubious at best and more than likely a higher level scam.
i want job cetrining in my place and outdoor order
Reyad Says. These scammers should be stopped, There must be a way this can be controlled. Me too same amount same people and phone numbers. Mr James Cheong and kathrina ferguson with 9.7 million sterling pounds. What a joke.
I received the same thing, from Mr. Cheong, same name, Mrs Margarat eich, I thought it was real, I said "ok then, proceed" .
Recieved some documents, did'nt take them seriously, filed them under saved.

Proceeded on my days work, then recieved an email, with such a bank account, with the same figure $9.7 mill opened it .

Then I got an email that I must send them $3, 200 before getting access.

This means we must contact Interpol, and they are joint force with the F.B.I., in these matters, because we need to keep our internet clean from these scamsters, and do ordinary business like other Americans.

You can email me back at:

If you wish to.

Billy
Sir,

I have a similiar letter you may add to your Sir Christopher Lambert

sir please see those comments which i have posted above. and reply me whether this is true or not. thanking you.

Kotak Mahindra Bank — Religion and Account Opening

When you open an account in this Bank, you have to fill in your religion in the account opening form.
Why do they need this information? Are they going to profile their customers according to customer's religious beliefs. Accord priority to certain religions and deny certain services to persons of religions which they hate. From the very name it appears to be a Hindu Bank.

In a secular country, there should be no mention about the religion by any service provider. I wonder if this policy of the Bank has the approval of Reserve Bank of India.
I have received a Certificated of Fund of 18.6 M dollares to credit to my account and a bank statement showin the balance of my account as you can see in the following documents:

These people think they are smart but they are so stupid, they are chine and Nigerians. Please have some respect for your own people.
