Subject: PERSONAL
Greetings to you, with warm heart I offer my friendship, and
greetings, and I hope this email meets you in good time. However
strange or surprising this contact might seem to you as we have
not met personally or had any dealings in the past, I humbly ask
that you take due consideration of its importance and the immense
benefit it will be to you.
After careful consideration with my children, we resolved to
contact you for your most needed assistance in this manner. I duly
apologize for infringing on your privacy, if this contact is not
acceptable to you, as I make this proposal to you as a person of
integrity.
First and foremost I wish to introduce myself properly to you. My
name is Mrs. Nazik Audi Hariri, mother of five, my husband Mr.
Rafik Baha al-din Hariri a very successful businessman and
proficient politician in Lebanon. Though I was involved in some of
my husband's businesses, which was very vast and successful. My
beloved husband was among those killed in the massive explosion
that rocked central Beirut's fashionable seafront district, on his
way back from Lebanon parliament on 14th February 2005
http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/meast/02/14/beirut.hariri/index.html
When my husband died, I was contacted as next of kin by a private
security firm in Europe to come forth to claim the consignment
with the Certificate of Deposit and claim a safety deposit my
husband has in their Vault in his name. I discovered a Certificate
of Deposit for the safety deposit with this private security firm,
and other documents relating to the safety deposit in a book. The
safety deposit, which is a trunk, is stocked with hard currency
(US Dollars) totaling $46,000,000.00 (Forty Six Million US
Dollar), which was generated from cash payments from his business
associates. Though I knew my late husband was politician and the
money was reserved for May election campaign.
This has came as a shock to me and my children, and we have
decided to have this fund invested immediately in commercial and
residential properties in abroad as well as profitable ventures,
now that the US Govt. has ordered Syria Govt. to leave and not to
intervene in any Lebanon affair and Israel is bombing south
Lebanon were we are coming from and we don't know what is going to
happen, hence we sincerely propose to you to render us your most
needed assistance in this regard. If you agree to render us your
assistance, your role in this project will be to act on my behalf
as a trustee to receive the safety deposit containing the funds
from the Security firm. Though I believe this transaction should
be based on mutuality, a family associate, who is a diplomat, will
protect my family's interest, and I have informed him that I am
locating one of my husband's business associates (you) to handle
the funds and pending till the crisis in Lebanon will die down,
the part of services the diplomat is required to render is to
assist you in claiming the consignments from the terminal of the
security company and to set up a transit domiciliary account in
your name in one of the prime bank he has contacts to carry out
the exercise through the back door.
The purpose of the account is to enable you deposit the funds for
further transfer into your nominated bank for your reliable
assistance, we are offering you 30 % of the funds. I thank you in
advance as we anticipate your assistance in enabling us achieve
this goal. On hearing from you, I will forward your contact to the
diplomat who will be representing us, and also give you his
contact for both of you to communicate and proceed with the
transaction. He will be working with you for a mutual conclusion
of the process and I look forward to a long lasting business
relationship with you. As you may understand, due to my husband
sensitive position in the present government, it is not safe to
communicate with me via phone or fax. Please all your
correspondence should be forwarded to our associate who reside in
London England Name: Mr.Vincent Terri
Email:vincent_terri01@yahoo.com and I will like us to keep this
way, for the safety of this transaction whether or not you are
interested in assisting us. This will enable us make alternative
plans, in the event of non-interest on your part.
With warm regards,
MRS. NAZIK HARIRI.
