Subject: URGENT PLS!!
Dear Sir,
I am Mrs. Deborah Kabila, one of the wives of Late President Laurent D.
Kabila of Democratic Republic of
Congo (DRC).
Consequent upon the assassination of my husband, I am
in possession of US$40 ,000,000 (Fourty Million US Dollars
Only) being funds secured by my late husband for his personal use,
This fund has since been deposited in a security company in ( Europe.) It is
now my intention to move the said fund out of the security company for
immediate investment for the benefit of I and my children. Based on this, I
am soliciting for your assistance to help me move this money out of the
security firm.
However, note that my children and I have agreed to give you 10% of the total
fund if you can accept to assist us. Also it will be your responsibility in
directing us on a viable business venture in your country. It is also my intention to
relocate and probably take a temporarily resident in your country untill all
the troubles in my country is over. We advise that you look for a house
for us to purchase as soon as we arrived.
To conclude this transaction, you will be required to visit the security/
finance firm in Europe. Open an account in any bank there in Europe where the
security company will deposit the total sum in your name. From this bank the
money will be remitted into your original bank in your country.
Immediately this is done, I and my children will depart The "UN REFUGEE CAMP IN NIGERIA WHERE WE PRESENTLY RESIDE,to your
country, where we are expected to take a temporary resident.
Please note that I can not do this transaction on my own considering my
position here, because My late husband's first son-JOSEPH-who took over power
in our country, do not want to see me and my children,
For the fact that I was very close to my husbad than his mother when he was
alive.
As a result of the closeness, I must be in possesion of wealth thereby pose a
treat to his government.
As a result he set up serious monitoring against me.
Infact this is one of the main reasons I took my children out of our country to a more stable Nigeria now I will be expecting to hear from you.
Thanking you in advance, and endeavor to send reply to email debra_kab@yahoo.com .
Yours faithfully, Deborah Kabila (Mrs.)
