Subject: very urgent
FROM:MRS EVANS STELLA MOBUTU KONA
COAST)WEST AFRICAN
ATTN;
DEAR
I am writing to you with my personal respect and
delight towards this urgent business transaction as
at hand. But briefly, I am MRS EVANS STELLA MOBUTU KONA.
Iam the wife of former President of Republic Democratic of
CONGO,(RDC)late President MOBUTU KONA, who died in
exile as a result of military / Civilian problems (may
his soul rest in peace).There was a deposit of $25
million USDollars, made by my late husband in one of
the foreign private security and finance company
overseas, which was registered as family valuables.
Since then, there has not been good chance to make the
withdrawal of the money.But recently, I instructed my
uncle to make the withdrawal of the fund, so that we
can be able to launch the business we have already
proposed in establish in oversea. But latest information, I got
from my uncle was that the deposit was made with a
foreign name,that I should urgently source for a
foreign! partner who will stand as the beneficiary of
the fund, so that there will be an easy withdrawal.
That all other documents for the withdrawal are very
okay. But my condition and my possibilities makes it
very difficult for me to approach any person for
recommendation, as this business does not in any way
requires public advertisement. That is my reason of
contacting you for this very important assistance. Only
I will not hesitate to giv you the 20 % of the total
fund for assistance in this business. Be assured that
there is no risk in this business. For there are many
other discussions as regards the investment proposal of
the fund. So, if you can be able to assist me,please do
urgently reply me, and don’t forget to give me your
telephone and fax number while replying this
letter.Thank you and God bless.
Yours sincerely,
MRS EVANS STELLA MOBUTU KONA
