Subject: More Details and Modalities
Hello Madras
Compliments of the day to you.
I received your mail and I want you to understand this business is 100% legal and risk proof from you both side, for all documentatios will be put in place by an accredited attorney. My colleague and I have deliberated on your issue and we have reached a consensus that work should work with you to proof this to you, we will commence immediately. I want to assure you that this transaction is a straight forward and legal transaction.I believe that if we work cooperatively that we should be concluding this transaction in a matter of few days.
I am making arrangements with an attorney that will prepare some documents, and some document will also be prepared to show that this funds are investment funds, that is to say that as soon as the funds are transferred into your account I will come with the documents that will show that these funds are for the purpose of investment in your country, this I believe will be welcomed by your government as every country in the world are ever ready to welcome investors to boost their economy,this is to cover the transfer to avoid payment of taxes.
However, a Deed of Agreement will be drafted by the attorney between your humble self and myself as partners and an affidavit of Claim and Support.Furthermore, we agreed that upon receipt of the funds into your country, you should withhold 30% as indicated in my proposal, 60% for us of which a considerable part will be invested on any viable business venture in your country as may be advised by you.The remaining 10% will be set aside to take care of both local and international expenses as may be incurred by both parties in the course of the transaction. Moreso,it is very important to let you know a little bit of me, I have been working for the bank for the past 25 years, married with 4 children.
However, we have worked out modalities on how this transaction would be carried out successfully in the shortest possible time. the attorney will write/indicate your name as the beneficiary and process other documents that will have you as the bonafide beneficiary of the said funds. These documents would be sent to you also on procurement. once the documents are processed and approval gotten, then the Foreign Payment Department of the bank will contact you to make all necessary arrangements for the transfer to be effected into the bank account that you will provide for the purpose of this transaction.
It is also important for you to forward to me a bank account that will be forwarded to the Foreign Payment Department where the funds will be transferred to once approval is granted .A bank account that can accomodate the said funds without any hitch.
Please forward the informations below;
1. Full Name to be used as the beneficiary ..........
2. Beneficiary's address........................
3. Your telephone and fax number ...............
4. Your bank name, .............................
5. Bank address,................................
6. Account Number...............................
7. Company Name..................................
Please do confirm receipt of this mail and I want to also use this opportunity to re-affirm my pledge for confidentiality as you know we are still working for the bank and it is of essence for us to maintain strict confidentiality because of the volume of funds involved.It's a good thing you are driving back you home, now we can now proceed.
I await your mail ASAP.
Best regards and God bless.
Mr. Cheng Lee
