Subject: CAN YOU DO THIS?
Dear Friend,
I am Rt Hon Patricia Hewitt MP. Leicester's first woman MP
in 1997 when I was elected Labour MP for Leicester West,
held a variety of top ranking roles in the Cabinet,
including Cabinet Minister for Women and Secretary of State
for Trade and Industry, and my last appointment was the
Secretary of State for Health under Her Majesty, Queen
Elizabeth of the United Kingdom.
I actually got your contact info via your country’s
national directory and intend introducing a project that
has to do with charity in your country and neighbouring
countries around you.
Before my retirement, I personally made an over
estimation, and stacked the sum of Six Million Three
Hundred Thousand Great Britain Pounds which I totally intend
for the purpose of charity and none other which will be
supervised Attorney as he will also be the one in charge of
securing these funds into your custody.
This transaction will result to you being paid a
commission of 11% of the investment capital and the
balance, distributed to charity organizations of your choice
or reinvested and the net income, used for rehabilitating
charity organization in and around your country through
you/your agency annually for the period of five years or a
little more. The last time I orchestrated this sort of
Grant, the individual in Australia succeeded in
successfully setting up three standard orphanage homes in
less than a year. I have never been so proud of such a
noble individual.
If you are willing to execute this Humanitarian Project,
You must understand that I desire absolute confidentiality
and professionalism on this issue.
For security reasons as regards my reputation, I will not
be able to communicate regularly with you; but my Attorney
will take up the processing on my behalf and get these funds
processed and released to you without any delay.
I actually don’t plan on benefiting anything from this
project, but will be absolutely fulfilled, if and only if
you remain sincere to me on the handling of this project
with utmost sincerity and confidentiality; and eventually
utilize the funds for the purpose which I have explained to
you above.
Please respond urgently if you are interested as the fund
are getting overdue, so I can equip you with the necessary
details, along side my Attorney’s contact information, so
as to commence the transaction properly; on the other hand,
if you are not, please let your intentions be known or
better still, Kindly relent from replying this email.
You could get personal info. on me via the Parliament
sites or on my official website, but do not try to contact
me via any personal information you may lay your hands upon
on the internet as almost all my contact info are connected
to the British House of Parliament data base except the
ones I personally sent to you; as I don’t want our effort
and my reputation, jeopardized.
Kindly send your response to this E-mail:
Pat_hewitt_mp@yahoo.com.hk <-----------
Sincerely,
PATRICIA HEWITT MP.
FORMER SEC. OF STATE FOR HEALTH
233 OWEN WALK,
LONDON, SE37 88AQ
UNITED KINGDOM.
