Subject: I am hoping to hear from you
ATTN Sir:
I am very much interested to enter into a mutual business relationship with you, after going through your profile yesterday. I am Madam Marie Kabila, the second wife of the late president of Democratic Republic of Congo, Laurent Desire Kabila who was assasinated on January 16th 2001by one of his security aides.
I am under sever pressure from this present military government headed by the first son of my late husband,General Joseph Kabila who felt victimized due to the incessant family problems between his biological mother and I. He has siezed all the deposited funds registered under my care by my late husband, through the help of his friend who is the Governor of Central Bank of Congo.
However, I have USD$55M (fivety five Million United States Dollars} currently in a coded security company vault overseas, which I now intend to use to establish a profitable business venture abroad to enable me and my family start life all over again. As a result.
I am urgently in need of a very reliable investor participant who is not known as my associate, that I could entrust with the PIN and Certificate of Deposit to help me remove the fund since no name were used in securing the vault.I cannot succesfully claim it myself as the government searchlight is still on my immediate family, hence I crave your assistance. You will in addition bank and assist me in investing (with my lawyers approval on project) as a front until the situation becomes more favourable for us to now meet and discuss the way forward.
Finally, more details on the logistic and modalities of the transaction will be given to you on my recieving your acceptance letter. I do not need to remind you of the absolute secrecy and confidentiality that this transaction demands.I will like you to reply if you are interested in helping me through this transaction.
I am hoping to hear from you.
Best regards,
Madam M. Kabila
