Subject: Your Assistant is Needed
Attn:
Your Assistant is Needed
I humbly wish to seek your assistance in a matter that is very important and
needs utmost trust and confidence. I am Dr Ikedi Morris a business
Consultant and a close confidant of Late Chief Mrs Stella Obasanjo the wife
to the president of the federal republic of Nigeria.
I am the financial adviser to the Late Chief mrs Obasanjo,before her death
on the 23rd of oct 2005 after a surgery in spain,before she left for the
surgery which took away her life she had a consignment in a security company
and the boxes contain gold,diamond and 6,000,000.00usd which she was meant
to go and deposit in an unknown account for her personal interest without
the concept of her husband or family members before the ugly inccident took
place.The fund is in a security company in London which once you indicate
your intrest and all informations I requested from you the contact of the
company will be released then you will contact the London immediately to
claim the consignment or they can send it to you after necessary things are
done online.
Go to the website to read more on her
http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/africa/10/23/obasanjo.obituary/index.html
For obvious reasons, I do not want to place this fund with established
financial institution with my name for security reasons. It is my desire
that the deal be handled as quietly as possible without possibility of any
leakage to the public or Government. I then therefore need to negotiate for
a reliable and trustworthy foreigner who can assist me by using his/her name
in moving the consignment and money to a foreign safe account and who can
assist to invest the fund properly for me.As a result of this since no
member of there family have any idea about this fund and because they are
embezzling our funds I find this as my life time opportunity to use the fund
to work for the less priviledged and the charity organisation.
I am expecting you to promise me that the trust and confidence I repose in
you will not be in anyway misplaced either now or in the near future as the
consignment and the fund attached to it has no trace,success from my side is
100% guaranteed from my side once you can be trusted and keep it as top
secret.
If you are capable and willing to participate in this transaction just
contact me through my email address or you send me your phone for a heart to
heart discussion.Also send to me a copy of any of your legal I.D and then
your name as it will appear in your legal documents so that by the next
three days you must have received the consignment.I will be very pleased to
give you 30% share from the transaction while 25% of the the transaction
will go to the charity as I will keep 45% which I will like to use the
greater part for investments in real estate management in your country.
NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON YOU ARE NOT DISPOSED AT MOMENT TO UNDERTAKE THIS
DEAL, LET ME KNOW ON TIME SO AS TO MAKE ALTERNATIVE ARRANGEMENT.
Waiting to hear from you.
Truly yours,
Dr. IKEDI MORRIS
