Dear Cathy,
Many thanks for your mail and the up date of the VICTIMNAME
world tour scheduled it is really tight scheduled and
whole lots of events; the latest album titled
“Love is my religion” is the nick of the
present time. We need love especially in Africa to
unite as Robert Nesta Marly his father has foreseen
and predicted.
When I heard VICTIMNAME and my mentor his father preaches
through music then, I fear no danger. I am
invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the
earliest times, and to the latest even on their music.
If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a
musician. I often think in Marly music. I live my
daydreams in music of Bob Marly and VICTIMNAME. I see my
life in terms of their music.
I have a confidential fund transaction with VICTIMNAME and
since you are his dependable allied and personal
assistant I think you will have the same mind and
thought, which I found in VICTIMNAME. And Ziggy will give
you all the authority to work with me while his on
world tour we would keep him abreast of all the
development maybe through emails. I dislike
procrastination in noble transaction like these, I
love deadlines, and I like the whooshing sound they
make as they fly by. Practically I know VICTIMNAME will map
out to you the cost of expenses of the actualizing the
remittance to the nominated bank account. As soon as
you get back to me on this email I will get the total
appraisal of the needed expenses cost.
This transaction is about fund that we need to
transfer into VICTIMNAME nominated bank account for some
certain purpose, which is confidential. The money is
been depository on a vault Escrow Call bank account
and the fund is valued at US$15.5 Million USA lawful
currency. Which VICTIMNAME will be the facilitator and
receiver of the whole fund and 25% practically belongs
to him (VICTIMNAME) and 5% will be for the expenses that
incur for the VICTIMNAME’s facilitating the
remittance of the fund through Swift MT760 or MT100
telegraphic wire transfer to VICTIMNAME’s nominated
bank account. The rest of 70% goes for our group.
I believed that VICTIMNAME has somewhat detailed you much
about me and these transaction. Through email we must
keep very confidential all our correspondences. In
fact I will copy VICTIMNAME to his email. Give me the
VICTIMNAME world tour roaming telephone number.
Please enclosed in the attachment file is the
documents questionnaire that you need to comply and
for us to proceed as the banker advice. Keep this
confidential.
I wait to hear from you as soon as possible.
Regards,
Dr. Kofi Mensah
PLEASE FIND THE ATTACHMENT.
