Attention : The Managing Director
Greetings, I know my message is like a surprise to you. Sorry to surprise you and take some of your precious time in going through this unexpected letter of plea for your understanding and assistance. My name is Mrs Aishatu Hassan, an iraqi refugee. My husband was until recently one of the personal aide to the former president of Iraq who was formerly overthrown out of power by American Goverment.
Prior to this last serious crisis that is still ravaging in my country,which recently led to misfortune of our government and my late husband position as one of the personal aide to the former president of Iraq, we were able to come over here in Thailand. I am contacting you with the hope that you will be of great assistance to me.I currently have within my reach the sum of $ 11 million U.S dollars cash which I intend to use for investment purposes. The funds were originally gotten from my late husband proceeds. My late husband was able to safeguard the fund with a very good diplomatic contact from my country and deposited it in one of the leading financial firm in Thailand in disguise as family treasures.
I have decided to contact you now because I am interested in investing this money in your country where there is stability of Government, political and economic welfare. Please kindly guide and assist me in making the right investment since I am also interested in buying a residential property as I will be moving with Son MUSA over there as soon as every thing regarding technical and logictics details is worked out and ascertained to our respective satisfaction
In view of your participation,I am ready to give you a good negotiable percentage for your assistance,or better still commit it into viable Joint venture projects. I strongly believe that associating with you to embark on this and other business ventures will derive a huge success hereafter.
However, upon your acceptance to work as my partner, you can contact me with my private telephone number or e-mail for more details. Be assured that you stand no risk of any kind as the funds belong to me and my only surviving Son. As soon as I get your consent, we will quickly move this fund to your country.
Awaiting your urgent reply
Sincerely Yours
Mrs Aishatu Hassan
