Subject: IN THE NAME OF GOD Attention Needed GOD BLESS YOU
General Director Novokuibyshersk Oil,
RESPOND IF YOU ARE WILLING TO HELP
Dear Friend,
I have sent you this mail because of the need to open
discussions with you.I don't want you to misunderstand
this offer in any aspect, if it is okay with you I ask
for your full cooperation. I am Andrey Konovalov, the
General Manager Of Novokuibyshersk Oil an
international affiliate of Yukos Oil and Gas Company
based in Russia. Due to ill Health I have been
Esophageal cancer,it has defiled all forms of medical
treatment and according to the medical experts it is a
terminal illness so i do not know how much longer I
have to live. I never had any real Friends in my
lifetime because I never really cared for anyone but
my business.
But now I know that there is more to life than making
all the money in the world. However, certain unfolding
events has made it very necessary for me to seek your
help, my company is fighting investigations and
bankrupcy due to the Yukos Oil problems in Russia,
most of my assets were seized due to this case.
Recently I received a bulk payment from South Africa
Ministry for my last contract there. I instructed them
specifically not to send the funds to Russia because
of the problems,but that the funds be deposited with a
Finance and Security company in Europe on hold. A huge
cash d eposit of Eighteen Million dollars was
domiciled with the afinance/Security Company overseas
to my knowledge only.
This is the last of my assets, now that my health has
deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself
anymore, I therefore need you as a partner because you
are a neutral party to help me collect this funds
deposited with the security company and disburse it
secretly based on instructions.
Because my time is short I have decided to give most
of this money to charity organizations, as I want this
to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. For
all your good efforts you will receive 30% of the
Funds and must disburse the rest based on
instructions. I want you to understand my seriousness
in this case and if you can handle the job kindly
contact me via this email:andrey_konovalov2005@yahoo.com.au
I have all the necessary documents on hand, please
contact me asap so we can discuss more.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.If you are
not intreseted, please keep it to yourself and do not
respond.
Best Regards,
Andrey Konovalov.
