Dear Amarjit Singh ,
Compliments of the season! This is a proposal in context but precisely a plea for your unreserved assistance in consummating an urgent transaction. In a concise profile of myself, I am senator LUISA PIMENTEL ESTRADA, a 74years old lady and first wife of JOSEPH EJERCITO ESTRADA (former Head of State and President of Philippines) who is presently held in detention outside Manila Philippines.
Moreover, the present administration of GLORIA MACAPAGAL ARROYO (the president of Philippines)have resolved to freeze all known assets of Joseph Ejersito Estrada including properties at home and abroad. With recent freeze on the various bank accounts of my husband in Switzerland,UK and Australia, and seizure of our traveling passports and family accounts, and trial of some members of our family for offenses allegedly committed by my Husband, and restriction in seeing my husband. I have moved out these funds of (USD &21.5 million) before my husband was impeached to an offshore deposit company as we cannot be held liable for the sins of my husband.
In view of this plight, I expect you to be a trustworthy national and kind hearted enough to respond to this distress call to save our family from a hopeless posterity and emotional depression as the attack on our family is devastating. From the previous experience, many people I have regarded as intimate friends have emphasized on my family's travail and made away with my money. In a bid to avert his negative development, I in conjunction with my son (DANIEL) now seek your permission and consent to allow my attorney do a change of ownership/reassignment of credit of the afore-stated funds from the deposit company to your name for investment in your country. In view of this grievous threat to our economic and personal survival, our family TRUSTEE have secretly protected the deposit; you are to assist us to lay claims of the consignment with the aid of all the legal documents that will be forwarded to you as time goes on as my attorney is well grounded on the precepts of
international law .I am writing because when I deposited the money in the deposit company , I told them that it belonged to a foreign business partner and my present position will not allow me to claim the funds.
Consequently, I will present you as the owner of the fund to the deposit company so you can claim it. In view of this, I am proposing a 15% of the total funds (USD$21.5million) as your commission,and 12% share of any investment we embark upon if you assist. We will also set aside of 10% of the funds for incidental expenses which you could incur in the course of this transaction including phone calls,fax message, air tickets, commissions etc and another 3%to the less privileged homes.
If you would mind, please send the following:
1. Full name
2. Contact Address
3.Telephone and fax numbers
Once the information is reached,we will prepare the necessary documents that will put you in place as the new owner of the funds.The money will then be released to your custody by the deposit company. I however employ you to observe utmost confidentiality and top secret for security reasons following the economic and political threat we face.
Sincerely, I am making this proposal in good faith believing you will assist us in good faith and will be waiting for your swift response through this Email:luisapim-04@myway.com
Luisa Pimentel Estrada.
