the wife of Mr.Joseph Estrada the former president of Philippine
located in the south EastAsia. My husband was presently impeached from
office by a backed uprising of mass demonstrators and the senate.

During my husband's regime as president of Philippine, I realized
US$25.540 millions of dollars (Twenty-Five Million, Five Hundred and
Forty Thousand US Dollars) from various contract projects I
executedsuccessfully. I had planned to invest this money for my
children's future onreal estate and industrial production. My husband
is not aware of this because I wish to do it secretly for now.

Before my husband was impeached from office, I concretely and secretly
deposited this money and declared it computer ledger cards with
diplomatic security company that transports valuable goods/consignment
through diplomatic courier service to their offshore offices. The
consignments that are contained in the two trunks are declared are
owned by my foreign business partners.

I wish to discuss how much I will offer you if you will be willing to
assist me claim the money and invest it in your country. I want to
assure you that all modalities are put in place and it is a risk free
transaction. I'm trusting you as a God fearing person who will not sit
on my lifesaving fund. This business demands absolute secrecy and
confidentiality, thus all communications for now should be through e-
mail because all my phone lines are connected to the Philippine's
telecommunication network services. I will furnish you with more
details when I receive your positive response.

Expecting your urgent reply, through the below email
