Dear Sir/Madam,
I do hope the letter will not come to you as a surprise. It was borne out of
my desire to share a mutual business Relationship with you. My name is
DR.John Edward, 42yrs, a Secretary, Nigerian national.i married with a wife
and four children.
I work as an administrative Secretary to STANDARD SECURITY AND SERVICES LTD.
in Nigeria. I got the information concerning you from the Nigerian Chamber
of Commerce and after due consultation with my spiritual adviser, I decided
to contact you believing that by the grace of God, you will accept to be my
partner in this business.
I earn a salary of N45 000 – 350 USD equivalent monthly. I joined the
services of this company in 1991 as an office assistant. I have been working
with this company for 14 years. Within this period, I have watched with
meticulous precision how African Heads of States and government
functionaries have been using STANDARD SECURITIES to move huge sums of money
USD, Pound Sterling, French France – (Cash) to their foreign partners.
They bring in these consignments of money cash and secretly declare the
contents as gold, diamond, precious stones, family treasure, documents etc.
Gen. Sani Abacha of Nigeria (dead), Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire (dead) Foday
Sankoy of Siera– Leone. Gen. Ibrahim Babangida (Rtd.) of Nigeria etc.
All these people have undreds of consignments deposited with STANDARD
SECURITIES. Their foreign partners, Friends and relatives, are claiming most
of these consignments. A lot of them are lying here unclaimed for as much as
15 yrs. No body may ever come for them because in most cases, the documents
of deposit are never available to any body except the depositors most of
them dead.
Since the inception of the 2000 millennium, STANDARD SECURITIES MANAGEMENT
changed the procedure of claims of consignments. As soon as you are able to
produce all the secret information as contained in the secret file of any
consignment, it will be released to you upon demand.
From our record, more than 120 consignments belonging to Gen Abacha / Mobutu
Sese Seko, has been claimed in the past sixteen months. This is why I am
soliciting for your co-operation and assistance.Late Gen. Abacha has 85
consignments deposited with several names and codes. 35 have been claimed in
the past sixteen months. Since he’s dead, his first son is dead in a plane
crash, the second son is facing trial for murder and embezzlement and the
family members are under restricted arrest without communication. I have
finished every arrangement for you to come and claim consignment No 1201
containing USD $78,Million and consignment No 1200 contain USD 55Milion.
My duty is to supply you with all the information and documents by fax or
Email. You will deal directly with the management.The procedure is simple: -
You will apply officially to the Director of Operations of STANDARD
SECURITIES for the release of consignment No 1200 and No 1201. They will
demand some documents and secret codes. You will then get back to me; I’ll
supply you with every detailed information.
Fax or email it to them. As soon as they are confirmed it correct. They will
invite you for the collection. If you do not want to come to Nigeria, you
can arrange with them to transfer the consignment to anywhere on agreement.
No body will ever know I am involved in the deal except the Lawyer who will
write an agreement for us.I’ll suggest upon conclusion we share 50 – 50. At
the successful conclusion of the deal, you’ll arrange for me and my family
to come over to your country.
I assure you that the business have been hatched for 5 Years now, it is very
secure and risk free. You can get back to me on same e-mail address for
further Explanations and directives on the procedure. Always email me your
response on my alternative email: {johnedwardo11@yahoo.com}
