Good day friend!!
l am Mrs.George Irene Marshal,the chief executive of harrison oil.l know
this proposal will come to you as a surprise because we have not met before
either physically or through correspondence but I believe there is always a
first time in life.
My husband is Chief Harry Marshal, Chairman harrison oil (Now Late).He was
the chairman of the opposition party in Nigeria, ANPP in South-South Nigeria.
But was murdered in cold blood by unknown gun men just two weeks to the
April 19th 2003 election the election that brought the last evil government
to power for the second time.
My husband was also the Chairman of ELEME Special Oil Trust Fund.In his
position as the Chairman of the Oil Trust Fund, he made some money which he
left for me as the only heir apparent.The money is Twenty
Million, Seven Hundred Thousand US Dollars(US$20.7M).
This Money originated from the accumulated royalties between 1976-1998. Due
to poor banking system in Nigeria and political instability from
long stay of Military in Government. He deposited this Money in a Strong
Room/"VAULTS" with an open beneficiary in a security
company pending when he would finish arrangement to transfer it abroad .
He was planning this before they murdered him inside his living room .Just
before my husband was murdered one day he called me just immediately he
came back from Aso Rock,that this government might kill him if care is not
taken due to the defferences he had with the government. But he was not
worried, he says if they kill him since he is fighting the use of the poor masses.
Then he called my attention to the money and urged me to look for a foreigner
who would assist me in the transfer/investment of the funds abroad.
So l would be very grateful if you could accept to help me achieve this
lucrative venture.I promise to give you 20% of the total funds transferred to
your vital bank account as compensation for your ssistance.Five percent
(5%) shall be set aside to take care of all expenses we may
incure during the transaction.
To indicate your interest, contact me urgently and confidentially for more
information and the roles you will play in this business. All the legal
Documents concerning this Money will be sent to you as soon as we agreed
together.
Please I will appreciate that you send your full names,your contact address,age,
telephone/fax numbers to enable me contact you immediately for discussions.
May the almighty God bless you.
Regards,
George Irene Marshal
