Dear Friend,Greetings. Thanks for your response over my first email to you. Let me properly introduce myself to you, I am Hon. Rajesh Anand Bhagwan,MP.Republic of Mauritius. Presently I am the former Minister of Environment and National Development Unit, under the Government of Prime Minister Hon. Paul Raymond .Acting in my capacity, I awarded a number of large Government building/construction contracts to a German Construction firm(Philipp Holzmann AG in Frankfurt am Main) worth hundreds of millions of dollars. In the execution of this project the German firm discovered a colossal amount of precious stones in one of the sites. I collaborated with this firm in a mutual agreement as regards the proceeds of which I have now received my share of exactly US $48 million. I cannot introduce or circulate this amount into the Mauritian banking system considering my provisional duty as a former minister, also earning less than $1000 equivalent of Mauritian Rupee (our local currency)
and the strict stipulations of the Bureau of conduct guidelines and regulations for Public/Civil servants.Furthermore, Groups of person’s in the Government have ganged up against me, with false allegations of an intention by me to contest the next presidential elections. This has caused dissent and discontent in my party circles, now prompting my decision to take flight with my family ,hence my soliciting your co-operation to take delivery of the funds into your custody for investment purposes .15% of the entire funds will be apportioned to you for your efforts and assistance, 10% will be for all the expenses that you will incure during this transaction,25% will be for me and my family's up keeping, while %50 will be for investment of any kind you think is profitable. I implore you to accord this transaction the confidentiality and secrecy it deserves no matter what your decision may be. I will send you my international passport for further idnetification and the last
picture of the money in the box before it was moved from my end through the help of a diplomat who works with the UN, and this box was taged as family treasure when it was moved, the the UN does not know the content of the box. I will give you the contact of the Diplomat as soon as i hear a good news from your end to enable you open up a communication with him on how you will make claims of this funds. Please get back to me with your below details:Full name:Contact address:Phone and fax number:Age:Occupation: I urgently await your response!
