Dear friend,
I honorably write to contact you on my personal investment prospect aimed at
establishing in your state or country. By a way of brief introduction, I am sir.
Raymond Garbi, aged 56 years, and divorced. I am from Hoe
Province of Nakadez, Cape Verde Islands. I am a retired chief executive officer of
Cape Verde National petroleum Cooperation. I served my country to the best of my
ability for fifteen years and finally went into politics as a presidential aspirant.
Days to kick off my political manifesto, I was arrested and placed under house
arrest till date for no justice course or
offence alleged on me. All these were to jeopardize my political ambition and
visions by my opposition who is the current President
of Cape Verde Islands.
My contacting you is based on mutual trust after series of prayers. You are to claim
the sum of $15.000.000 U.S from Chattered bank in Lome, Republic of Togo. The fund
is my life savings from both cooperate and private life businesses. The only
criteria to this claim is to help my only daughter, Benny Raymond 12 years old
have a safe and good future of Education. You shall use part the fund for her
education, accommodation and invest in banking and
insurance for a brighter future after you have taken your percentage of the fund.
This condition does not stop you from investing in other businesses of your choice.
Since you are worthy and can tell me at what percentage you are ready to assist my
only daughter who is all i have got on earth right now.
I am under house arrest and do not hope to survive it. Remember, the fund is only
$15.000.000. Please, for more clerification and faster transfer of this fund contact
me immediately via email. Raymondnakaz@compaqnet.fr my tel lines are under heavy
security monitor. My safest means of communication is email.
My daughter has gone on
exile and you can contact her after the success transfer of the fund within four
bank working days. This business must be strictly confidential,and based on mutual
trust. I am handing everything that belongs to me over to your care.
Yours faithfully.
Mr. Raymond Garbi
