Dear Sir/Madam,
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics. I introduce myself as Dr. Machen Russell Wansfell a staff in the accounts management Section of AGCO Corporation headquartered in Duluth, Gorgia, USA (please visit our website at www.agcocorp.com. AGCO is a global manufacturer and distributor of agricultural equipment and related replacement parts. Right now i am in the UK to oversee Agricredit a subsidiary of AGCO Corporation in the UK.
I have an urgent and confidential business proposition for you. On the 4th of January 2002, the president and chief executive officer of AGCO Corporation, John Shumejda was killed in a plane crash in Birmingham, England along with the company's senior vice president of sales and marketing.
You can refer to the following website for further information.
http://www.hesstonrecord.com/web/isite.dll/?1010179974631
I have spent 4 months in the UK and during my stay with Agricredit i discovered some files which indicated that the late AGCO CEO John Shumejda made some deposits to a well known security company with one of the accounts with a holding balance of ?5,000,000 (Thirty Five Million British Pounds), this account has remained dormant and has not been operated since his death in 2002. No member of his family is aware of the existence of either the account or the Funds as his will has been read since 2002 and the deposits were not included in it.
I have confidentially discussed this issue with some of the security company officials and we have agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to deal with.We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin of the deceased and have the funds released to you after due processes have been followed.
This transaction is totally free of risk as the fund is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundering, terrorism or any other illegal source.
The sharing of the funds will be based on agreement between all individuals involved. As soon as I receive an acknowledgement of receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business proposal, i will send to you the necessary modalities and disbursement ratio to suit both parties.
If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you.
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO SEND YOUR PERSONAL TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBER IN YOUR REPLY TO THIS PROPOSAL.
God Bless you,
Dr. Machen Russell Wansfell
