Subject: get back to me
I am Abbui Seydou, son of the late chief AbbeySeydou,the former chief justice of Gabon, proposing a mutual business relationship. We(I and my mother)currently have within our reach the sum ofThirty Million,Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars only(US$30.5M)in cash which we agreed to use for investment purpose specifically in your country.This money came as a result of a pay back contract deal between my late father and a Chinese firm on our country's Multi Billion (Trans Gabonese)RailwayConstruction Scheme and the Chinese partners returned my father's share after his death and lodged it in our finance company here of which my mother is thedirector. Right now, the evil new government has revoked our Licenses that allows us to own a financial and oil company even killing of innocent people for no cause.In view of this I acted very fast to withdraw the US$30.5M from the company's vault well preserved, packed in cases and deposited it with a security company in a neghbouring country. My mother has since declared our security company bankruptcy and no record has ever existed concerning the money because thereis no document showing that we received the money from the Chinese firm.Furthermore, due to the current situation in the country concerning the present government attitude towards some retired or old government officers, doingthings on their wishes (unlawfully) and especially to the formal administration families.It has become quite impossible for me and my family to make use of the money here (Gabon), thus I seek your assistance to move the money out of this country and keep it in your care. It is a transfer through a diplomatic baggage(Security company),and my mother and I have agreed to compensateyou or the owner of the account used for this transaction with 30% of the total amount remitted.We shall have 65% and the remaining 5% reserved fortaxes and other miscellaneous expenses in your country.Finally, on your consent, I shall expect you to contact me urgently to enable us discuss in detailsabout this transaction and bear in mind that yourearly response is highly needed to transfer this fund.It is 100% risk free, contact me ASAP; I must also use this opportunity to implore you to exercise the utmost indulgence to keep this transaction as a confidential issue.
Best Regards,Abbui Seydou
