Compliments of the season,
This mail may not be surprising to you if you have been following events in
the international media with reference to the Middle East and current
Palestine in particular.
I am Mrs. SOUHA ARAFAT, the wife of YASSER ARAFAT, the Palestinian leader
who died recently in Paris.Since his death and even prior to the
announcement, I have been thrown into a state of antagonism, confusion,
humiliation, frustration and hopelessness bythe Present leadership of the
Palestinian Liberation Organization and the new Prime Minister. I have even
been subjected to physical and psychological torture. As a widow that is so
traumatized, I have lost Confidence with everybody in the country at the
moment.You must have heard over the media reports and the internet on the
discovery of some fund in my husband secret bank account and companies and
the allegations of some huge sums of money deposited by my husband in my
name of which I have refuses to disclose or give up to the corrupt Palestine
Government.
In fact the total sum allegedly discovered by the Government so far is in
the tune of about $6.5 Billion Dollars. And they are not relenting on their
effort to make me poor for life. As you know, the Moslem community has no
regards for woman, hence my desire for a foreign assistance. I have
deposited the sum of 120 million dollars with a security firm abroad whose
name is withheld for now until we open communication. I shall be great full
of joy if You could receive this fund into your bank account for safe
keeping and any Investment opportunity.This arrangement is known to you and
my personal Attorney.He might be dealing with you directly for security
reasons as the case may be.

benefits,we will have to negotiate on your Percentage share of the
$120,000,000 that will be kept in your position for a while and invested in
your name for my trust pending when my Daughter, Zahwa, will come off age
and take full responsibility of her Family Estate/inheritance. Please note
that this is a golden opportunity that comes once in life time and more so,
if you are honest, I am going to entrust more funds In your care as this is
one of the legacies we keep for our children.
