Dear Ms Krueg,
I and my family sincerely appreciate your kind understanding and concern for us. It is however highly important for you to undertand the need for utmost and confidential handling of this business transaction. Our lives here fully depends on this fund and we have carefully hidden every detail from everybody. As per your need for a tangible proof, please be rest assured once more that every proof you may need will be contained in the various legal documents to be issued on your behalf, and the document which was issued at the time of the deposit. All these will be sent to you as we progress in earnest. We have carefully examined the possibily of the european tax policies and have arrived at a reasonable way to tackle it. Once you have the consignment in your custody, you will have the descretionary authority to distribute in different bank accounts. Taxes will be deducted and relevant legal documents will be presented to the European authorities concerning source and origin of fund. I am most delighted to let you know that the method of transaction will be transparent and risk-free. We have taken into full consideration, your overall interests and am happy to let you know that this will not breach the laws of your country nor that of mine. When you have received the consignment, my son will make an early arrangement to meet with you in your country to have meeting with you on the possibility of establishing a joint partnership business over there with our own share of the fund, which will be overseen by you.
The phone number given to you is still OK. 234 is the country code. 8027 664196 is the direct number. you do not need to add any other digit before calling. Just dial straight and speak with my son. He will clear you verbally on issues or questions you may have. To commence the process of securing some of these documents on your behalf, please provide your full names, home or office address. You may also provide a confidential telephone number with which to reach you.
Once more, its been a blessing knowing you. Please feel free to speak with my son as i cannot speak with you due to the surveillance on me for now. Finally, your sincerity and honesty mean the world to us.
Regards,
Ms. Abacha
