Dear Good Friend,
First, I must solicit your confidence in this transaction; this is by virtue of its nature as being totally confidential and secret. Though I know that transaction of this magnitude will make anyone apprehensive and worried because you do not know me, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day. I have decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction. Also, I want to be reliably convinced of your discreetness and ability to handle this transaction. Let me start by introducing myself properly to you. I am Mr. Peter Wallace, Personal confidant of former Liberian President, Mr. Charles Taylor. I came to know you through my private search for someone I can confidently trust on, and I believe we can execute this project.
I want you to help us claim and clear this Package that is already in DUBLIN, which I shipped through Diplomatic means with the help of a Diplomat. The content of the Package is $20m (Twenty Million U.S. Dollars), all in $100 bills. The Diplomat does not know that the Package contains money, because it was declared as personal effects and these funds resulted from the excess sales of Diamond, as former Liberian President, Mr. Charles Taylor's Country is very blessed with the Precious Stone.
I then arranged for the packaging of the funds and thereafter, it was shipped to DUBLIN through a United Nation’s (U.N) Diplomat. These funds the former president intends to use in investing in any lucrative business venture that you may indicate in your country under your care pending when all is settled and we are able to meet with you for further disbursement due to present political situation at hand as we would not want eye brows to be raised for the reasons of source of acquintance of the funds.
If you are willing and interested to assist us, kindly send to me Your personal information and indicate your willingness to assist then I will forward your contacts to the Diplomat, to enable him contact you and finalise modalities on how you would be able to lay claims to the package and enable him know exactly where he will deliver the package after clearing it from the U.N Holding.We have agreed to give you 30% of the total fund which you would take out immediately for your service rendered then the balance 70% you would be investing in any lucrative business venture in your country which you would introduce and be in charge of till we are able to meet with you. Therefore, if this arrangement is okay for you, try as much as possible to email me so that we can go ahead and achieve our endeavor, and other modalities will be discussed later including sending the keys of the boxes to you.
Looking forward to receiving your reply through my email address below.pwallace50501@hotmail.com
Best Regards,
Mr.Peter Wallace.
