Private & Confidential
Dear Sir,
Compliment of the season to you!!
This mail will definitely be coming to you as a surprised, but I must crave your indulgence to introduce myself to you, I am Ashanti Gomel the only child and daughter of “late” Mr.Omar Gomel who was my father, a Diamond merchant, was recently murdered by his business associates over the issue of money, My mother died when I was 3 years old, and this made me to be very close to my father. Before the death of my father in Oman, he had taken me to the Diplomatic Unit in Dubai UAE where he used my name to deposited a large sum of USD$12,500,000 (Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in form of photographic materials.
However, I got your contact through the International web directory. I am in Dubai right now as I had reliably informed by a confidant that my relations are plotting to kill me, and manipulate my inheritance as the next of kin. I am confused and afraid of my life now that is why I contacted you so that I will front you to the Diplomatic Unit as my "late" father's affiliated business partner who is the beneficiary of the consignment deposited with them. I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country, I can not be able to handle this huge amount of money, this is the actual reason why I required a second party or fellow who will work with me and also provide either an existing bank account or to set up a new bank account here in Dubai immediately to receive this fund, even an empty account can also serve for this purpose.
However, on smooth conclusion of this transaction, I am willing to give 40% of this sum of money provided you help me. So bear in mind that you will be entitled to 40% of the total fund, while the remaining 60% will be for my investment in your country or any place of your choice as I do not know anything about investment. What I want from you is your maximum cooperation and for you to act as my international partner who is the owner of the consignment. I have in my possession, the necessary Documents to successfully accomplish the operation.
Finally, note that this proposal is 100% risk free. Further Information will be given to you as soon as I receive your positive response. I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your wish. For confidentiality please contact me on this above email address. I am pleading with you to help me so that I can invest the money in your country and also settle down there at the same time.
Please do reply as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Ashanti Gomel.
