Subject: FOR YOUR URGENT ATTENTION.
FROM: MOHAMMED ABDUL TAFIQ.
AMMAN JORDAN.
Dear Sir/Madam,
My Name is Mohammed Abdul Tafiq an Iraqi national from the Kurds. I was an Accountant with Durra Oil Refinery Company in Iraq and I am presently residing in Amman (Jordan) since the U.S strike in Iraqi. I am contacting you and I hope you will find this letter very expedient.
In my personal capacity as the Chief Accountant to Durra Oil Refinery Company I was able to move the sum of (=US$45,500,000.00=) call-deposit to a Security Company in Iran for safe-keeping. This money was moved through an under-ground cover few hours before the U.S invasion in Iraq. I am the only official of my company who is privy to this call-deposit with the security company in Iran to be released to whom I will introduce to the security company as the beneficiary of the fund since I can not be able to go to Iran because of the war.
Due to the unstable economic situation and the political instability in Iran and the war in Iraq becoming worse by the day, I am soliciting for your understanding to present you as the beneficiary of this call-deposit to the security company in Iran where this fund is deposited. This deposit will be released to your account as accrued fund being owed to you by Durra Oil Refinery Company Iraq. I am willing to compensate you with (30%) of the total fund for your assistance to receive this fund into your custody and this will be subject to further negotiations with you.
Note that as soon as this deposit is released to your account by the Security Company in Iran I will come over to meet with you for disbursement. I am relying on your good conscience and ability to be confidential in this matter and I want to assure you that this transaction would be of mutual benefit to both of us. If this request meets your kind consideration, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will send to you the (Deposit Slip Certificate) of the fund to you as the beneficiary to be released to you as over-due fund owed you by Durra Oil Refinery Company Iraq.
Do not fail to send to me your most private telephone number for further discussion on this transaction. I shall be very glad to hear from you as soon as you receive this letter.
Best Regards,
Mohammed Abdul Tafiq
