Subject: Top Secret To You
Dear Friend/ Partner,
Greetings from me and my family.
My name is ROH DAE-JUNG, The brother of GENERAL. ROH TAE-WOO, theformer President of South Korea, He was hand-picked by the ex-general ChunDoo-hwan to succeed him as president in 1988 to 1993, triggering largepro-democracy rallies in Seoul and other cities in 1987. In response, Rohagreed to hold democratic presidential elections, making himself a viablecandidate for the next election. Opposition supporters, in pronouncedregional voting, split their vote between two candidates future presidentsKim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung, making Roh the first elected president ofthe post-military rule era.Roh's rule was notable for hosting the Seoul Olympics in 1988 and for hisforeign policy of nordpolitik, which represented a major break fromprevious administrations.After taking office in 1993, Roh's successor Kim Young-sam led ananti-corruption campaign that saw Roh and Chun on trial for bribery . Thetwo former presidents were later separately charged with mutiny andtreason for their roles in the 1979 coup and the 1980 Gwangju Massacre.After serving duly, he was accused of mass embezzlement which ran intobillions of won because of the GREAT OLYMPICS 1988 which brought Korea tothe world lime light, and was arrested but released after long years ofincarceration and now under scrutiny.
Before my brother's was overthrown, I secretly siphoned the sum of 30million United States Currency out of Seoul and deposited the money with asecurity firm that transports valuable goods and through diplomaticmeans.I am contacting you because I want you to deal with the securitycompany and claim the money on my behalf since I have declared that theconsignment belong to my foreign business partner. You shall also berequired to assist me in investment in your country.I expect you to declare what percentage of the total money you will ta k efor your assistance.When I receive your positive response I will let youknow where the security company is and the payment pin code to claim themoney which is very important.we do not want the government of my Countryto know about the money because they will believe I got the money from mybrother while he was still in office as president .Once you confirm thereceipt of the money ,I will come over with my Children to your Country orany Country in Europe to start a new life with my Family.As soon as payment is effected, and the amount mentioned above issuccessfully transferred into your account, we intend to use our own sharein acquiring some estates abroad. For this too you shall also be ouroverseas manager of all our properties and you will be paid based on acertain percentage agreed on by both parties. For now, let all ourcommunication be by e-mail because my line is right now connected to theSouth Korean Telecommu ni cation Network services therefore we can not takethe chances of being heard.
