Dear VICTIM-FULLNAME,
I am most grateful for your mail, and I seize this opportunity to thank you for coming to my rescue and to also let you know that this transaction is a straight forward and legal transaction. I am somebody with a conscience. If this transaction was in any way illegal, I would tell you straight away so that you know what is involved and decide for yourself. But it is not like that at all, and you will later see and understand that.
I hope you were not too embarrassed by my first email to you since you do not know me. I had no option since my immediate and extended family refused to distribute my funds because they want to keep it to themselves. I didn?t know how to move the funds out and dispatched it to charity organizations, so I resulted to putting fate to test and making a random contact. I got your email address from the web email directory and decided to introduce I plight and this transaction. I am communicating with only you at this moment with regards to this transaction. And I would not have any cause to do otherwise, except you state your intention to withdraw your assistance.
Just like I stated in my first mail to you, this fund is presently in a private finance and holding firm in The Netherlands.I cannot claim these funds myself as a result of, (1) I am under going medical treatment. It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts
(2) I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so, I have decided to give alms to charity organizations and churches, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth It is for this reasons I am seeking for your assistance to stand as the beneficiary to the fund and retrieve it on my behalf and dispatched it to charity organizations All the necessary documents required to get the Funds out of the security firm are in my possession and I will be sending them to you after we must have come to a conclusion and reached an agreement.
Not before.
I need you to give me your words that you will be very honest and straight forward with me when the money gets to you,So long as you can execute this transaction successfully and help me dispatched it to charity organizations.
Thus, I would need you to get back to me on the following issues,
(1) That you are in a position to be trusted as a God fearing person with such a large amount of fund and dispatched it to charity organization.
(2) That you fully understand this transaction up to this stage and you are ready to proceed under these terms.
As soon as I receive your reply that you are ready to proceed under these terms, then I will furnish you with all details including the company and my lawyer?s details for the secure of the release of my fund and disposure to the charities. But if you have any questions up to this stage, please ask and I will be more than happy to respond to them.And I will also send you all the necessary documentations to conclude this transaction and the Finance company details as my life is too short.
Thanks for your mail, your mail has relieved me and I pray to almighty GOD with his infinite mercy to reward you. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it now. I want you to pray for me so that God would forgive me and be merciful to me and accept my soul.
May God bless you,
James Fernado.
