URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL
I am Mr. Veron Chucks, the first son of Late Isreal Chucks, I am a citizen
of
Nigeria. My father was the managing director of Aluminium Company in Asaba
Delta State Nigeria, but very unfortunately he died in the year 2001 after a
protracted illness. Due to poor management of the company in my country and
for the fact that I am so dedicated to church activities, I realized that I
will be unable to manage the company and so soon it may wind up . I also
realized that I am too young to manage a large company of that type and most
of the directors have already began to divert the net profit being generated
from the company, I therefore arranged with my fathers lawyer and
sold the entire company to Mr. Alan Foster from Poland at the price ofUS$20
milion dollars,
Due to constant pressure from some of my relatives and also fear of likely
attack on my family to hijack the fund, I arranged with my mother to
transfer the fund into a security
company in Lagos Nigeria, where I am currently staying with my mother and
other two younger sisters.However, I am into Engineering Activities now and
I have most of my time dedicated to
church activities. At the moment, we want to transfer the fund to oversea
country for investment because of the pressure i am facing with my family. I
therefore need your assistance to enable me
transfer the fund over there so that we can relocate to plan for the
investment of the fund through
your personal assistance. I mostly need your assistance in investing the
fund because I have little experience on investment management of the fund.
It is also my plan that after the successful transfer of the fund to you, I
will relocate to your cuntary as soon as you recieve the money then will
plan on how to invest the money. What I mostly need from you is honest and
sincerity because this fund is my life and the life of my family. If you can
assist us in this transaction, I will give you 20% of the total fund while
75% will be for my family for investment,and 5% of the fund will be maped
out for any expencess that might incure during the process of the
transfer.Please, be assured that this transaction is 100% risk free, but you
must keep it confidential. If you will assist us, kindly send me an urgent
mail to indicate your interest. I await your soonest response.
Best Regards.
Mr.Veron Chucks,
{FOR THE FAMILY}
