Subject: I AM Duf Tanga Amand
Good Day,
First and foremost I wish to introduce myself properly
to you.I am Duf Tanga Amand , son of the late
rebel leader Tanga Amand of sudan who was killed on
the 22nd of February 2002. I managed to get your
contact details through the internet,myself largely
due to time essence and I was desperately looking for
a person to assist me in this confidential business.
In brief, I have the sum of eighteen million five
hundred thousand united states dollars only(us$18.5M)
which I want to invest in your country. This money was
deposited by my late father in a security vault for
safe keeping, of which I was made the sole next of kin
as the first son of my mother the third wife to my
father,It happened that my mother is in possession of
the depositional documents of this deposit.Because of
the present situation in my country sudan, my mother
advised me to leave the country immediately for
security reasons, and also to look for a trust worthy
foreign partner who can assist me to transfer the
money out of Senegal to his private or company’s
account for investment.
I highly need your assistance both in transferring the
money to your country and also investing it in a
profitable venture with your kind advice ,as I confide
in you hoping you will never betray me at last. My
mother and I have proposed (35%) percent of the total
sum of the money for you as your own comission, so as
for you to give us all necessary assistance and
protection we may need in your Country.
Please treat as highly confidential because our future
depends on this money,all the vital! documents
covering the deposit of the fund in a security company
are with me here and will be used to effect change of
ownership in your favour for susequent transfer to any
account you may wish us to use abroad .
The identity of the finance company where the fund is
deposited, will be revealed to you as soon as I
recieve confirmation from you on your willingness to
proceed, as seeing is believing.reach me through this
mail box(duf_tanga@yahoo.com <mailto:duf_tanga@yahoo.com>) to discuss modalities on how to proceed.
Looking forward to hearing from you urgent.
Yours Faithfully,
Duf Tanga Amand .
