Subject: Happy new year friend !
From_The Desk Of:Dr.Mohammed H.Eltawila
Managing Director of Global
Finance & Securities Ltd.
15, Al-Gazayer Square
1st Floor, New Maadi
Cairo, Egypt
Hello Sir,
I am Dr.Mohamed Hassan El tawila,the Managing Director of Global Finance &
Securities Ltd.I am essentially a unit fund manager and largely involved in
stock brokerage and portfolio management.On the 30th September,2004,I received
a telephone call from the late Palestine leader Yasser Arafat to dispose his
portfolio(shares) in Egypt companies worth Eighty Five Million,Five Hundred
Thousand,One Hundred and Twenty-Two Dollars Fifty five Cents($85,500,122.55)
and have the money remmitted to an account he was meant to provide but was
unable to do so in the event of his sudden bed ridden.
Expectedly,I disposed of the shares by right offering and I have been informed
by my receiving bank that the exact amount has been received but I cannot wire
the fund to it's designated account primarily because I am yet to receive
information to that effect and more importantly beacuse Mr.Yassar Arafat
himself is now late.Since then,I have sent repeatedly email messages to his
forwarding address but have not received any reply even an acknowlegement
for my numerous mails.However,I was stunned to discover that Mr.Arafat was
involved in reckless spending and misappopriation of state funds to his
selfish
desire.
You will be surprised to hear that this man stached several millions of
dollars
in foreign banks with neither proper accountability nor a WILL in the event of
his demise.
I am using this medium to solicit for your assistance in transferring this
money.Mine is an Islamic country,there is restrictions on huge transaction as
this.In other not to violate money laundry regulations,I will take care of
moving the fund to Europe.I have contacted a financial consultant in Europe
who
is an expert in financial management and receiving huge funds and lodging them
into the banking system without violating money laundry regulations.He was
introduced to me my a diplomat friend.Based on this you are to assist in
transferring the funds to your own personal accounts from where we shall re-
invest the funds in a business . If you are willing to assist you
will have 20% of the initial sum and a further 20% of whatever investment we
go
into. How about this offer?
I do not need to spell out the importance for the need of secrecy, considering
the nature of the matter and the party involved. If you are willing to
assist you are to list your phone and fax number so I can contact you from a
secured phone. This is important, as we will have to talk about the modalities
of the transfer.
Time is of great essence in this matter so if I do not hear from your within
the next few days I will take it that you are not interested and will solicit
for a new partner.Meanwhile send your response to hassan_dgn@personal.ro.
Waiting to hear from you.
Dr.Mohamed Hassan El tawila
