Subject: HELLO
I am Collins Elton from UK, I came to know about you during my search for a reliable business partner whom I can trust to do business that requires such magnitude of confidence and honesty, I came to conclusion after praying and fasting for a few days as a Christian that you are a good fellow to confide in even though we never met for the first time. Actually, I had 3 names on my prayer list and in the end I have the confirmation and conviction in my heart that you are more to be trusted, This was why I contact you for this mutual benefit as I have gone through a profile that speaks good of you and it interests me to contact via this medium. I work for a UK based consulting firm,we Provides a wide range of products and services, Our company is active around the world through numerous subsidiaries and partnership with many companies, I work as a product sourcing and marketing manager. However, between the 17th -19th of May, 2007 a business seminar was held in Pretoria-South Africa, of which I attended, and during the Seminar, I was opportune to meet Dr. Arthur Andersen, the President of ANDERSEN DAIRY & CATTLE FARM, an accomplished well known and recognized millionaire farmer, He have cattle farms in different countries, Also he is one of the greatest suppliers of cattle, beef and other Diary products, on getting to know my Profession and area of Specialization, Dr. Arthur Andersen confided and disclosed to me about the purchase of a particular product but very important medicine for his cattle business, He informed me that he usually buy this product at $5,000.00 USD(Five Thousand US Dollars) per carton, and that he mostly buy to the excess of 450 cartons, Therefore, he informed me that he would like me to find out if my organization could source for him a cheaper supplier considering the recent trend of falls in the general price of beef in the world market, which is seriously affecting his business. Back in my office, I discussed this proposal with my boss and he decided to handle the supply by himself. We carried out a market research and discovered that we could purchase this medicine somewhere cheaper for $2,000.00 USD per carton, We later moved a proposal to ANDERSEN DAIRY & CATTLE FARM, to make the supply to them at $4,800.00 USD per carton of which they accepted, Based on my role in the transaction, I had an agreement with my director to get 15% of whatever gain we made on each supply of which he agreed. But it will amaze you to hear that on the completion of the supply and the receipt of the payment, my boss relegated and breached our agreement and refused to give me my share of the profit. Since then our relationship has deteriorated and I had since accepted it as one of life experiences for working under a greedy boss. Meanwhile, as God would have it again, Dr. Andersen contacted me and informed me that he would want us to urgently supply him with 1,250 cartons of the same product on or before the end of September, 2007, Then I used the opportunity to inform him that I can introduce him to the main producer of this vaccine who can supply him the product at $4,400.00 USD (Four Thousand Four Hundred US Dollars per carton) Which means that he's getting $400.00 discount on each carton from the last supply we made to him if he will make a part payment in advance as he usually does and he was very pleased and happy about the arrangement,” Remember that we can get this product from the producer at the rate of $2000.00 per carton and resell at $4,400.00 to Dr.Andersen, suppose that $2,400.00 profit on each carton is a good bargain"hence,my happiness is that Andersen assured me that he is not going to contact my boss again for this vaccine prior to my offer, and he's going to make 50% advance part payment for the order of the products. Now this is how it works, Andersen is eagerly awaiting my feed back to link him with the producer of the animal vaccine who is you in disguise as I don’t want him to have direct contact to the original manufacturer due to our expected dividend and profit and also for future supplies and deals, I hope that you understand me clearly. Lest I forget, honesty is my watch word and trust is the key to success, therefore I'm willing to give you a trial and do the supply with you if you are interested, and note that we shall discuss on the mode of sharing the gains and profit once I get your positive response. Finally, Please be informed that if this proposal can be well handle by you without betraying me like my boss did, then quickly write me back for immediate commencement.
Thanks and God bless.
Mr. Elton Collins.
