Subject: CAN I CONFIDE IN YOU??
Dear beloved,
I feel very sorry to interrupt your peace since you are not expecting to
receive any mail from me.However, I was obliged to do so due to the
importance and urgency of the message. I crave your indulgence, and want to
reassure you that I mean well and that it is only for our mutual good.So
please do not be embarrassed or suspicious.
I am Prince james Johnson Igor, the personnal Assistant to the Late First
Lady of Nigeria Chief Mrs Stella Obasanjo who pass away on the 22/10/2005 in
a hospital in Spain after undergoing turmor surgery. I was with her in the
Spanish hospital when she died as we were suppose to make a deposit of huge
amount of money in the tune of EURO 15,000,000=00 (Fiftheen Million Euros)
in her Euro account in a Spanish bank after the operation. Infact, we have
made several deposits in her different account in different countries in
Europe and America before our last trip.
The issue now is that since her sudden death due to the operation, we were
not able to make a deposit of the money again and the money is still with me
even as am talking to you now. Having considerred the fact that the money
was part of the money she and her husband loothed from the Government
Treasury as the wife of the President and no body is aware that the money is
still in my possession, I have decided that I must divert the money into my
private purse.
More so,I came back with the money to Nigeria with the Presidential Flight
that brought the remains of the First Lady home on Thursday 26/10/2005 and
presently, the vault boxes are secured in a security company here in Nigeria
and it was registered as personal effects so as to avoid the security
company officials from knowing the contents of the consignment. Hence, they
security company only believed the contents of the vault boxes is personal
Effects.
My little worry is that I can not invest the money in Nigeria, otherwise, I
will be asked by the authorities to explain how I got the money and in lieu
of this, I have liased with the security company to ship the consignment out
of Nigeria as soon as I am able to get a Foreigner that will received the
consignment on my behalf since I have made up my mind to travel to any
suitable country to settle down and invest the money.
So the main issue now is that I need someone that have the fear of God which
I can transfer my money into his care and the person will also help me to
invest it and some other things in his country.
I am promising a very good rewards to whom it may concern to help. Please if
you are interested to help, mail me back as soon as you recieve these for
further inquiries. Please be assured that it is risk free as I will process
everything legally here.
Hope to hear you soon.
Remain blessed,
Prince James Johnson Igor.
