Hello Friend Holland
Permit me to introduce myself and my business. I am Pastor George G.Evans.The information you are about to hear came to me by privilege as a clergyman and I decided to be involved because I want to help the innocent family members and again because the matter in question was a legitimate matter that do not belong to the other category cases. I am writing on behalf of ex Governor of the oil rich Bayelsa State of Nigeria Chief Diepreye Alamieseigha. As a pastor of his church he passed this information to me in confidence and wants that I help him in his present situation.I want you to help clear a package that is already in Canada that was shipped by him sometime ago.It does not matter if you are not in Canada as long as you have a postal address and a telephone number in your country.If you can recall he was arrested sometime last year at his London home with a huge amount of cash which was later confiscated by the British government.

He later jump bail and escaped to Nigeria where he was subsequently arrested, impeached, imprisoned and all his properties confiscated by the Nigerian and British government.Ever since the embattled Governor has been in difficulties and most importantly fighting for his freedom.He need to be free to prove his innocent on some of the charges. As a pastor of his Church, he made me to understand that there is package that is already in Canada which was shipped through diplomatic means and with the help of a diplomat.The contents of the package is $2,000,000.00 in $100.00.
This are his legitimate earnings and gratuities from friends and associates.Please note that the diplomat does not know that it is money that is in the package.
This brings me to why I am contacting you.There are a lot of legal fees which runs into millions of our local currency and again the family of the ex governor are suffering .As nobody know about this deposit accept the governor and myself ,he has asked that I request for your cooperation in clearing this package.It will be well noted that this is needed urgently in order for the fund to be used to fight his freedom and to alleviate the sufferings of his siblings.
All I want you to do for me now is this, Give me
Your Mailing Address.
Your Private phone and fax Number.
I will give you the contact of the diplomat and at the successful conclusion of this deal allows you to take 30 percent out of the fund before releasing the rest to the family.Let me know if we can discuss this further in confidence while wishing you the best .Also note that my identity most not be revealed because of the current situation as I am doing this purely on humanitarian grounds.And I will not reveal yours to anybody.
Other modalities will be discussed as soon as you get back to me including sending of the keys to the boxes to you.
God bless you as you think of this.
Pastor George G.Evans
