Subject: MUTUAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL
MUTUAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL
MY Name is madam villaran Nenita fom philippine.My
husband was in the cabinet of formal President, Joseph
Estrada before he was poision and died.
I inherited a total sum of 12.3 million dollars from
my
late husband, this money which is concealed in a
metallic trunk box is deposited with a security and
finance company in abroad. Due to the instruction we
laid down before we deposited the box,
that we needed maximum security/safety of the
consignment and no body nor government organization
can trace the where about of the box until we are
ready
and prepare to claim it. . This deposit was coded
under a secret arrangement as a friend
family treasure. This means that the security company
does not know the content of this trunk box.
My main purpose of sending you this mail is because of
the way I found you and perhaps trustworthy to give
you this priority of shipping the box of
money to any address that you think is very secure and
save in your country with your percentage of which we
shall chat on soon.
In fact, since the death of my husband i have been
feeding from hand to mount, his brothers
has been seriously chasing me around with constant
treats, trying to suppress me so that they might have
the documents of his landed properties and confiscate
them. They have successfully collected all his
properties, yet they never stopped there, they told me
to surrender all bank account of my late husband,
which I did, but I never disclose to them this deposit
with the security company in Abroud because this is
where my future and destiny lies upon.
The family secret existence of this deposit which we
made with the
security company and they can never be aware of it.
Out of fear of my late husbands family, and when the
situation becomes uncontrollable because of pressure
on me from the Government of the Philippines, I decide
to look for a trustworthy person who could assist me
retrieve this box of money from the security company
for onward lodgement into his account for the purpose
of future investment. Consider my situation as a widow
and come to my rescue.
There is need for urgent action because I'm paying
$50 dollars per day as a demurrage to the security
company for safe keeping this consignment.
I will send you the Authorization Certificate to call
them in my next mail which is the Certificate of
deposit that they gave me on the very day when the box
of money was deposited under their company.
I give thanks immensely for your co-operation as I
look forward to hear from you soon.
Address your responds to my Private email address
nenittvillaren@yahoo.ca
for quick conclusion of this business.
All the best,
Madam Villaran nenita.
