Subject: CAN YOU BE TRUSTED?
FROM: MR JANG DOOH-WAN CHUN
jangdoohwan01@excite.com
Greetings from me and my family,
Getting your contact was not an easy task because since I am not computer
literate, I ordered my son to seek a partner very far away and he went to
the institute of International Business to apply and he paid them the charges.
After two days we were given three names and I did not write the three but
merely close my eyes in prayers and your address became my selection. I
intended to write one of the others if you dont respond on time or if you
eventually change your mind. You see my
friend, if you rely solely on God, you will never go wrong.
My name is JANG DOO-HWAN CHUN, The brother of Mr. CHUN DOO-HWAN, the former
President of South Korea who seized power in a military coup in 1979 and
who ruled from 1979 to 1987. My brother was pushed out of office and charged
with treason ,corruption and embezzlement of over 21billion won. He was
wrongly sentenced to death but fortunately AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL stepped
in and commuted the sentence to life. We thank God that he has finally being
released though still under house arrest in the sense of conditions of the
freedom. During my brother's regime as president of South Korea, we realized
some reasonable amount of money from various
deals that we successfully executed. I have plans to invest this money for
my children?s future on real estate and industrial production.
Before my brother's was overthrown, I secretly siphoned the sum of $30,000,000
million USD (Thirty million United states dollars) out of Seoul and deposited
the money with a security firm that transports valuable goods and consignments
through diplomatic means. I am contacting you because I want you to deal
with the security company and claim the money on my behalf since I have
declared that the consignment belong to my foreign business partner. You
shall also be required to assist me in investment in your country. I hope
to trust you as a God fearing person who will not sit on this money when
you claim it, rather assist me properly, I expect you to declare what percentage
of the total money you will take for your assistance. When I receive your
positive response I
will let you know where the security company is and the payment pin code
to claim the money which is very important.
What we need is to indicate your interest that you will assist us by receiving
the money on our behalf in Europe or with special arrangement, you can get
it transfered to you by bank transfer . For this, you shall be considered
to be the beneficiary of the money. The project in brief, is that the funds
with which we intend to carry out our proposed investments in your country,
is presently in the custody of a Diplomatic Courier Services
Company in Europe. We cannot do this ourselves because we do not have any
relatives living outside South Korea and moreover we do not want the government
of my Country to know about the money because they will believe I got the
money from my brother while he was still in office as president.Once you
confirm the receipt of the money ,I will come over with my Children to your
Country or any Country in Europe to start a new life
with my Family.
As soon as payment is effected, and the amount mentioned above is successfully
transferred into your account, we intend to use our own share in acquiring
some estates abroad. For this too you shall also be our overseas manager
of all our properties and you will be paid based on a certain percentage
agreed on by both parties. For now, let
all our communication be by e-mail because my line is right now connected
to the South Korean Telecommunication Network services therefore we can
not take the chances of being heard.
Please also send me your telephone and fax number. I will ask my son to
contact you to give you more details on after I have received a response
from you. I am going to introduce you to him as an age long friend so as
to prevent him from using any of his own friends who I regard as sycophants
who are around him for financial gains and treacherous if he gives them
this opportunity. This I got from the experience I had when
the people turned against Chun, my brother that became the prelude of our
sorrow. The reason why it took this long was that the security company?s
agreement with me was that my brother must personally sign the Power of
Attorney that will transfer title to the prospective beneficiary. It was
a long wait but it paid off. His excellency, Chun Doo-Hwan does not want
to be personally involved for security reason. Your quick response
will be highly appreciated.
Thank you in anticipation of your cooperation.
Yours faithfully,
Jang Doo-hwan Chun.
