Waldschmidtstrasse 59 61,
Frankfurt Germany
Dear Sir
May I crave your indulgence to open this business discussion with you
by an
informal letter of this sort? It is pertinent that a business of this
magnitude should have commenced properly with a formal meeting between
you
and us to enable both parties know ourselves, have a fore knowledge of
the
nature of the business, discuss and acquaint ourselves with the
responsibilities and functions of both parties and appropriate shares
accordingly. But as a result of the urgency of this operation I have
decided
to contact you by fax to hear from you first before planning on the
next
line of action
My Name is Gunther Moller, a vault Manager with a security company here in
the United Kingdom. This transaction if handled with outmost care and secrecy will
be
successfully concluded within 10 days. In the year 2003 before the
beginning
of the American led Coalition war in Iraq, a deposit of a consignment
was
made here in our company by the late son of the former president of
Iraq
Saddam Huesein Mr, Qusai Hussein who was recently killed by the
American
Soldiers in Iraq.
This deposit was made by Ouasai Hussein personally and no one in my
office
at this moment knows that this consignment belongs to him only me and
the
one other Computer Lodgment officer in our company. We have tried to
investigate the content of this box and found out that the consignment
contains money and in cash, worth US$65,000.000.00 (Sixty Five Million
dollars), No one else in our office knows about the content and the
owner of
this consignment as this was declared as family valuables. We have
therefore
decided to find a way to take away this consignment from our office and
move
the money out. Hence we are looking for a trust worthy person
internationally who will come forward to claim this consignment.
I have made necessary arrangements for the change of ownership of this
consignment to anybody's name who is willing to work with us within 3
working
days of receipt of the information’s we will need from you, we will do
the
change of ownership, so that no one in our office will ever know what
is
going on and move the consignment away from here to any of our company
agents outside Germany to any other part of Europe where it will be
easy to
claim the items. Open a Bank account and distribute the cash.
If this proposal meets your interest please get back to me immediately
by
fax or email giving me your telephone numbers to enable me give to you
further details on how we have planned to carry this operation
smoothly. As
soon as I receive your response, I will also give to you my private
telephone number for easy communication
Your urgent response awaited
Yours faithfully
MR. Gunther Moller,
Frankfurt Germany
