Subject: PLEASE CONTACT ME URGENTLY.
Attention Please,
You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. My name is Barrister Joao Guedes, I'm a Citizen of Portugal in Europe. Am a legal solicitor based in Nigeria and am the Legal Director and Sole Administrative owner of "Barrister Joao Guedes Chambers" in Nigeria, referred to as my Law Chambers.
I got your contact through network online hence I decided to write you to seek your sincere assistance, understanding and co-operation as it regards my intention to humbly nominate you as the trustee for a funds transfer transaction. I was the legal solicitor to late Mr. Robert Mazuri a citizen of the Republic of Zimbabwe who died in a riot back in his country Zimbabwe. On the 5th of July 2001 my late client (Mr. Robert Mazuri) and his 30 years old son (Mr. Martins Mazuri) came to Nigeria to deposit a total amount of US$6,000,000.00 (Six million united states dollars) for safe keeping with a Finance Security Company named or called "DEL FINANCE SECURITY COMPANY NIGERIA PLC; with his accomplined son signing the US$6 million Deposit Certificate as the Next of kin & Beneficiary of the money, while I signed as their Legal Solicitor. Unfortunately Mr. Robert Mazuri was murdered two months later in a political land dispute back home in Zimbabwe his Country. This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for a new farms establishment.
After the death of his father Mr. Martins Mazuri had to flee down to Nigeria were he is currently on Assylum since then. As he is saddle with the responsibility of seeking for a foreign account where his money could be lodged / transferred into, as the laws of Nigeria prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker like Mr. Martins Mazuri) to open any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction throughout the territorial zone of Nigeria.
It was upon this background that I was contacted as his Lawyer and Personal Attorney to assist him in making professional contacts for a trust worthy person, be it a man or woman whom he (Mr. Martins Mazuri) has to entrust his future as it regards the transfer of his $6 million dollars into his or her account in his or her country, hence I contacted you.

Their are two options for you, firstly you can choose to have 30% percent of the total money for nominating your account for this transaction, Or you can go into partnership with Mr. Martins Mazuri for a proper profitable investment of the money in your Country, either in your area of expertriate or according to your humble directives. Which ever the options you want, feel free to notify me. Please Contact / reply me with my email address, while I implore you to maintain absolute secrecy and confidentiality required for this transaction.
