Subject: Looking Forward To Hearing From You
>From Mrs. Nazik Hariri
Lebanon.
Respected one,
This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have never met. The message could be strange but real, if you pay some attention to it. I could have notified you about it at least for the sake of your integrity.
I am Mrs. Nazik Hariri, wife of the late Prime Minister of Lebanon, Mr. Rafiq Hariri, who was assassinated on 14 February 2005, along with 20 others, near the St. George Hotel in Beirut. In the wake of his assassination on 14 February 2005, the United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan dispatched a fact-finding mission to investigate the killing. Arriving in Beirut on 25 February, the mission interviewed Lebanese officials and politicians, from both the government and opposition, studied the Lebanese investigation and legal proceedings, examined the crime scene and collected evidence.
I intend leaving Lebanon for a better life some where, as you know that for the past month it has been terrible here with the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, it is only by the grace of Allah that we are still alive and well.
During my husband's regime as the Prime Minister of Lebanon, He realized some reasonable amount of money from various deals that I successfully executed. The money was deposited by my husband in my name, Mrs. Nazik Hariri, in a Finance Firm in Malaysia. I have plans to invest this money outside Lebanon. I am contacting you because am looking for a trusted and reliable person that will represent me in Malaysia to claim the money on my behalf.
We are all under routine checking about our movements and telephone calls. The relations of my husband are asking us, all the wives to produce every document and certificates in our possession concerning our Husband's properties although I and some other wives has submitted some but I refuse to submit this one and I believe since they have calm down a little now is the appropriate time for us to clear the fund from the financier institution.
I have sent a notification letter to the financier institution, that the fund will be collected by the family foreign business partner. Why l need a foreign partner is that, as an Arab woman, the tradition forbids me to run any business with my son (Saadeddine). Since he was not aware of the money from the very beginning. When I receive your positive response I will then give you details of the Finance firm, and the amount involve.
