Subject: BUSINESS PATNERSHIP
Dear sir,
This letter will definitely come to you as a surprise, knowing that we do
not know each other before and have not had any previous encounter in the
past.
My name is Mr. John Doncuyun, the personal assistance to the first lady of
Federal Republic of Nigeria Late Chief Mrs. Stella Obasanjo. Before her
sudden death in Marbella hospital in Malaga Spain, we made several overseas
trips and in most of those trips Million of Dollars are carried out in Cash
and deposited in Security Companies in Europe and some part of Africa, for
the benefit of first Lady and her family each they travel out overseas.
Due to the sudden death of the first lady caused by complications from a
cosmetic surgery, she did not have time to reconcile most business
transactions with her family especially her husband.
In the last trip we made, we stopped in Accra Ghana to deposit total sum of
$15.5 million in one of the security company in Accra Ghana as family
valuables before I and her continue our trip to Spain, for the surgery that
took her life that day. When I had that she is dead I quickly went to the
security company and demanded the certificate of deposit before the news of
her death was made publicily and the Certificate of Deposit was given to me
without any further questions as the security company officials recognized
that I was the only person that walked in to their custody, with her during
the time of deposit.
Now I am looking for a foreign partner that will come and claim the
consignment and keep the money safe in his foreign account since I can not
operate a foreign account being a civil servant still active in government
and also due to the fact that I am still working with the presidency.
President Obasanjo, or any of his family members can not trace the fund for
claim on why because the Original Certificate of Deposit is with me alone
and there is no next of kin quoted at the period of deposit. I am the only
person that has the certificate of deposit in Security Company, Accra Ghana
and it's address where the USD15.5M was kept which I will forward to you the
certificate of deposit based on your letter of acceptance to this proposal
and to commission you with 30% for providing a foreign safe account.
This transaction is 100% safe as the family can not claim the fund as they
have no certificate of deposit to proved to the Security Company regarding
the deposit. If you are interested, please contact me on the email address
below so that I will tell you how we will proceed.
Remember that all regarding this must be kept confidential.
Awaiting your quick response.
Yours faithfully,
Mr. John Doncuyun
