Subject: Mrs Aysar Mahjob in Iraq
Hello,
I am MRS. AYSAR M. MAHJOB the wife of late MR. HAMZEH A. MAHJOB a retired
civil servant in the Ministry of Foreign Affair here in Iraq before he was
killed by a bomb blast due to DR. HAMZEH A. MAHJOB involvement with the
Allied/American Armed Forces which led to the successful outster of
President Saddam Hussein.
I solicit your assistance to receive our money lodged by my late husband
before his assassination. My husband relations have shared all that was left
behind in Iraq by my late husband but Fortunately, our relatives are not
aware of the money deposited abroad which is the reason why i wants both of
us to partner so that I can introduce you as our Next of Kin and beneficiary
to the amount $ 26 Million USD.
I want you to receive and transfer this money $ 26 Million USD for
investment into your country/business as such I would like to make contact
with people like you for assistance. Note, the funds are already with a
security company which also has branches around the world for safe keeping.
If you are willing to assist me, this is all you have to do: You will
contact the security company as my appointed Representative/beneficiary for
the release of the funds to you as my next of kin as I cannot travel out
from Iraq at the moment due to financial constrains as a widow.
The fall of Saddam Hussein has brought destruction, instability & violence
to our great country and everything is practically difficult now and
opportunities are closing up, the new government is trying but the militias
are frustrating our country stability. What I require from you are as
follows:
1. You should make arrangement with the Security Company to secure the funds
on my behalf.
2. You will be entitled to 25% of the total sum involved for your
assistance, and 5% of the funds will be set aside to reimburse you any kind
of expenses incured as a result of this transaction.
3. As soon as you confirm to me by e-mail your readiness to claim the
consignment from the Security Company, I will send the PIN code number of
the consignment to you and also the security Company's information.
4. Upon successful release of the consignment, then you will facilitate our
relocation outside Iraq.
5.Please note that this project is 100% risk free but you must keep it very
secret and confidential with strong assurance that you will not let me down
at all.
I await your prompt reply.
Sincerely,
MRS. AYSAR M. MAHJOB
