Subject: More Clarifications.
Dear Madras,
I received your email and will not like you to compare this transaction with SCAM as I am sure of what we are doing. With my age and opportunities in life I do not think I wil be involving my self in a useless venture.
In fact, let me brief you more about my self, I am a proffesional legal practitioner and personal confidant to the late Rafik Hariri. This is my over two decades in the legal cycle. I am happily married with 3 children 2 girls and a boy, and also from a christain home.
You should never make the mistake of comparing our business with SCAM because it is everywhere but the business I have with you is purely Inheritance.
According to African context SCAM is associated with foreigners collaborating with corrupt Govt. officials to syphone public funds out of the country to over seas, statistics shows that at times this people normally succeed but in most cases they always loose money if the Apex bank or the Ministry of Finance, Foreign Exchange Control Unit refuses to issue fund release order form for international remittance or external payment to take effect, but in our own case I am sure of what we are doing as I am with all the legal documents to justify the claim.
SCAM is not peculiar to Africa alone, there is also SCAM in all over the world both in Canada, America and elsewhere.
See U.S. customs service: http//www.custom.gov or you check Royal Canadian Mounted Police: http//www.rcmp.ca
Africa / Nigeria See: ww.geocities.com/treasure_looters
I want to let you know that I am an old man and the business I brought to you is genuine offer devoid of any problem what so ever and it will benefit both families imensely, even generations yet unborn. But the only thing is that we have to face it squarely to make sure that we obtain all the necessary legal Documents to justify the claim.
You should not entertain any atom of fear because I’m here to feed you with the whole information that might be required during the period of this transaction, in as much as you obey my instructions success will be ours sooner than your expectations.
I contacted you in this transaction on my search for a reliable partner,I have not seen you before but my mind tells me that you will not betray me in this transaction that's the simply reason why I contacted you. I contacted you because I cannot make this claim alone except with you a foreigner because the original owner of the account is a foreigner and the money is also in foreign currency.
However,this said fund belongs to my late client Rafik Hariri, and now I needed you to act as his next of kin Consequently the management team of the bank has recently issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the investment deposits confiscated by the end of this second quarter in their financial calendar of 2006.
All I need from you is to stand to play the role of next of kin to my late client by putting claim to the unclaimed fund,Which every necessary information's concerning my deceased Client will be forwarded to you to also enlighten you more, as the Political adviser to late Minister Rafik Hariri I am going to guild and protect your interest in the bank.
All you have to do now is to arrange for a good receiving bank account into which the bank shall transfer this fund to your favour as next of kin.
I am just an average citizen here and wouldn't like to miss this Golden opportunity before me. I want you to tell me more about your status because I am beginning to take you like a partner that is why I would like you to do your best and call me once you receive this mail so that we talk to each other for better understanding.
However, you will be required to be here once approval is granted in your name for the endorsement of the fund release order form with the ministry of finance so that certificate of inheritance will be issued in your name which is the only legal document to show that the money going into your account is genuine, free from drugs, terrorism and money laundery. Pls you have to try your possible best on this as that will be a very big opportunity for us to know each other and build more confidence before the funds enter your account.
I have given you a vivid account of all that is involved and think you are supposed to declare your stand to me to enable me know which steps to take because this is an opportunity I can not let go. I want you to know that this transaction is going to join our families together because I will be with you after the money has been successfully transferred to your account and I make sure I delete all necessary information regarding this transaction in the banks file through my contacts in the bank.
The moment I get your consent to assist me in this deal I will unveil the next modalities to you and I will also attach my working identity card for your own view as to build confident in me.
I have an advice for you please, I don’t want you to leak this secret to anybody so that our secret will be forever to avoid any body knowing how we made our money.
If this deal further interest you then you reply me immediately to enable us proceed.
If you will not partake, kindly discard this information and never expose it to any person due the sensitivity of the transaction.
What is your age and your profession?? Pls I would like to know more of you.
I hope you will continue in your honesty while I promise to do my best to see that we are victorious at last. We don't need to delay so much to disable its claim as government treasury.
Hoping that you will understand and assist effectively for the success of this transaction and looking forward to hear from you. This is my number 0022676562586.
Regards,
Barr.Onochie Karim.
