Hello Dear,
This letter may come to you as a surprise but I really prayed to God to help me choose somebody that will be my true partner and somebody that will listen to me.
My name is Mr.Mohammed Atiku Aburbakar.I am the first son of Alhaji Atiku Aburbakar,the present Vice President,Federal Republic of Nigeria. May be you know that my father and the President,Chief Olusegun Obasanjo are having face-off due to the struggle to know who will remain in power in this 2007 Presidential electon here.
The problem has reached to the extent that the president in order to punish my father more is now closing all the bank accounts where my father deposited huge amount of money in the country.
The rumur is also around the town that very soon,he will start closing the bank acounts where we, the children of the vice president deposited money in the country.
This attempt is further compounded by the committee set up by the president himselves on Monday the 22nd of Jan.2007 to follow up the matter in a more strategic and scrutinizing manner.
Because of this problem,I taught it wise to contact you very urgently and confidentially because from what is presently happening here,if appropriate steps is not taken by me and on time too,I will end up loosing all the monies I saved through my father as the Vice president of Nigeria.
I therefore contacted you on trust with complete assurance that you shall by no means dissapoint me in this important project.
I discussed this matter with the Controller General of Remittance Dept.CBN and he advised me on what to do now.
I have a total deposit of about $20m in my name with the bank even as I write to you now.The Controller Genral advised me today that the only way of securing the money is for me to contact a confidential foreign beneficiary so that the beneficiary of the funds would be changed and authenticated from my name to the person's name so that any efforts from the Presient Obasanjo committee to close the account in my name would be unsuccessful.
Dear one,this is the only reason why you are contacted by me.I'm not out to scam or cheat you.Please I need your help before it is too late.
Sharing of the proceed will not imposs and problem.All I want is for the money to be ou of this country first.
Get back to me as soon as possibe so that we can discuss further and fashion out ways of securing this money here in your name and have it transferred into your own account in your country.
I will stop here until I hear rom you.
Thank you.
Mr.Mohammed Atiku Aburbakar
