CARLOS ALBERTO,
Pº DE PEREDA Nº 9-12
28016 MADRID-ESPAÑA
Dear Friend,
Having obtained your contact from the Spanish Chambers of
commerce I then decided to contact and solicit your mutual
assistance to invest in your country. I am Mr. CARLOS
ALBERTO; I am an official of CAJA MADRID Bank here in
Spain.
Some years back The former dictatorship and the late
Togolese leader, Gnassingbe Eyadema, who died on February 5
of heart attack, made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit,
valued at 8,500,000.00(Eight Million, Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars) in my Bank Branch.
After his death, the new Government and Country leader has
been trying to retrieve all the stolen funds he stole from
the country. Even the family including his Son Mr. Faure
Gnassingbe does not know about these funds in my bank.
However, My Partner and I decided to deposit these funds to
one of the Security Company here in Spain. Consequently, we
shall present you as a foreign partner to stand in as the
beneficiary of this money. This fund was deposited in my
bank as part payment to a foreign company that want to build
a personal refinery for him here in Spain.
I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the
law, as we will use our position as the Banker to secure
approvals and guarantee the successful execution of this
transaction. It will take only 7-10 working days to conclude
this transaction.
Please be informed that your utmost confidentiality is
required. We shall discuss the disbursement and percentage
as soon as we hear from you.
If this interests you, please reply me immediately via the
private email address below, Email:luisdomingo@myway.com or
luis_2001gonzalez@yahoo.com
Awaiting your urgent reply. Thanks.
Best regards,
Carlos Alberto
