I AM CONTACTING YOU WITH ALL DUE RESPECT SIR AND NEVER YOU ENTERTAIN ANY FEAR IN THIS TRANSACTION, FOR THIS IS REAL AND GENUINE . ALL I NEED IS HONESTY AND YOUR CAPABILITY TO HANDLE THIS PROJECT ON MY FAMILY BEHALF.
Dear Beloved One,
Your first reaction to this mail will be total rejection, scare and may be unbelief, owing largely to the atrocities people commit these days on the internet. But this mail comes from a devastated, sorrowful and emotional ladened soul that needs compassion from a kind and good spirited person to wipe away my tears, perhaps when I am gone beyond this sinful world.
I am Mrs. Magret H.B. Kazeem . I am the above named person. I am married to Dr. Idris Kazeem barker who was the formerly an assistant to the secretary general of Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries "OPEC". He has worked with this organization for nine years before he died in the year 2002, as result of our only son brutal murder in Saudi Arabia by an unknown gun men. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Since his death I decided never to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the my culture is against.
However, OPEC has been of tremendous help to my family since after the death of my husband. The organization has help my family both financially not until six months later, a new secretary general was elected who has denied us our right of belonging and since then, reverse has been the case.
The most painful and annoying part of it is that my husband's relatives has been on my neck. They said i am behind my husband death which is never true. They sent me packing and threw me out of my matrimonial home which i have suffered for with my late husband for so many years . I have nowhere to go to, so i decide to go back to my mother land to stay with my family to get my self organised and careter for my children.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $32 Million (Thirty two Million U.S. Dollars) when he was the still the secretary of OPEC with a finance house in Europe. Please i hereby request for your urgent assistance to help my family in investing the monies as a partnership investment with your company or any investment that both of us will benefit from it.
Presently, this money is still under the safe keeping of the finance house in Europe. I dont want my husbands relatives to know about this development. Please tell me in confidence, can you handle it? Can you invest this huge amount of money successfully onbehalf of my family? Have you ever handle such amount of money before? How old are you? Please advise most urgently.
In a short while, My family lawyer will meet with you in europe or any of the finance house branch offices that is close to your country for easy and quick transfer. He is assisting to facilitate this transaction and he has concluded arrangements to have this funds transferred through a nominated joint account which you will both open for the money transfer. You will need to meet with him as soon as possible.
With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply, My family lawyer will issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original- beneficiary of this fund and the Airway Bill. Also he will forward your personal information to the Finance house in Europe, so that they will contact you as the legal owner of this fund before going their to claim the fund /transfering the fund into your nominated Bank Account in your country.
