Subject: HELLO
MRS.SUHA ARAFAT
Dear Friend,
I am MRS. SUHA ARAFAT, the wife of late YASSER
ARAFAT,the Palestinian leader who died recently in
Paris. Since his death and even prior to the
announcement, I have been thrown into a state of
antagonism, confusion, humiliation, frustration and
hopelessness by the present leadership of the
Palestinian Liberation Organization and the new Prime
Minister. I have even been subjected to physical and
psychological torture.
As a widow that is so traumatized, I have lost
confidence with everybody in the country at the
moment.You view this website:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3965541.stm.You
must have heard over the media reports and the
Internet on the discovery of some fund in my husband
secret bank account and companies and the
allegations of some huge sums of money deposited by my
husband in my name of which I have refuses to disclose
or give up to the corrupt Palestine Government.
In fact the total sum allegedly discovered by the
Government so far is in the tune of about $6.5
Billion Dollars. And they are not relenting
on their effort to make me poor for life. As you know,
the Muslem community has no regards for woman, more
importantly when the woman is from a Christian
background, hence my desire for a foreign assistance.
I have deposited the sum of 27 million dollars with a
Diplomatic Security firm in Europe whose name is
withheld for now until we open proper and full
communication.I shall be grateful if you could receive
this fund into your bank account for safe keeping and
any Investment opportunity.
This arrangement should be known to you and I alone
and all our correspondence should be strictly on email
alone because our government has tapped all my lines
and are monitoring all my moves.
In view of the above,if you are willing to assist for
our mutual benefits, we will have to negotiate on your
Percentage share of the $27,000,000 that will be kept
in your position for a while and invested in your name
for my trust pending when my Daughter,
Zahwa,will come off age and taken full responsibility
of her Family Estate/inheritance.
Please note that this is a golden opportunity that
comes once in life time and more so, if you are
honest, I am going to entrust more funds in your care
as this is one of the legacy we keep for our children.
In case you don't accept please do not let me out to
the security and international media as I am giving
you this information in total trust and confidence I
will greatly appreciate if you accept my proposal in
good faith.
Please expedite action. And you can reach me anytime
on my private email suhafamily7@netscape.net
Yours sincerely,
Mrs.Suha Arafat
