Dear Friend,

surprise since we have not met,permit me

I am writing you to earnestly Solicit for your
assistance in helping to receive some sum of
money.
I got your e-mail address through an internet
marketing firm while searching for a reliable
and reputable person to handle this transaction.
THE PROPOSITION:
We have the sum of US$9,500,000.00 (Nine Million
five hundred thousand Dollars) that we intend to
transfer overseas through the assistance of a
foreign partner. This money came as a result of Over
provision in the budget for unclaimed pension and
accident insurance. This over provision was done
by my committee but all payments have been made
to beneficiaries leaving behind the over budgeted
amount which amounts to US$9,500,000.00 which is
deposited in the Nigerian Deposit Bank here in Nigeria.
I have agreed to transfer the funds overseas for
my campaign funding, private use and for investment
purposes with your help.
I am contacting you therefore, to stand in as
the beneficiary to process this fund into your
custody.
As soon as you consent to this I will immediately
send you title documents to the fund in your name
so you can make claim for it.
I will provide you with 30% for assisting us and
5% to be set aside for reimbursement for expenses
that may arise during the process of concluding
the transaction. The fund shall be transferred to
you legally in accordance to all laid down
procedures governing transfer of funds. I have
perfected all modalities for the successful transfer of
this money to you as the beneficiary.
Finally, I have to reassure you that this
transaction is risk free and should be kept
absolutely confidential. Presently, you can reach
me by return mail, you should also include your
telephone numbers if any, for secured communication
between us.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
I await your response. Also Note that we need to
conclude this transaction before the end of next
month as we can still make payments from last
years budget till this time.
Senator Dagash Sanusi
