Subject: WAITING FOR YOUR KIND RESPONSE
I AM CONTACTING YOU WITH ALL DUE RESPECT SIR AND NEVER YOU ENTERTAIN ANY FEAR IN THIS TRANSACTION, FOR THIS IS REAL AND GENUINE. ALL I NEED IS HONESTY AND YOUR CAPABILITY TO HANDLE MY FAMILY FUND AND INVEST IT JOINTLY IN YOUR COUNTRY AS PARTNERS.
Dear Sir/Madam,
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics. I will introduce myself as Mrs Magret H.B. Kazeem . I am married to Dr. Idris Kazeem Barker who was formerly an assistant to the secretary general of Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries "OPEC". He has worked with this organization for nine years before he died in the year 2002, as a result of our only son's brutal murder in Saudi Arabia by unknown gun men. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Since his death I decided never to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which my culture is against.
However, the most painful and annoying part of it is that my husband's relatives has been on my neck. They said I was behind my husband death which is never true. They sent me packing and threw me out of my matrimonial home which I have suffered for with my late husband for so many years. I have nowhere to go to, so I decided to go back to my motherland to stay with my family to get myself organised and carter for my children.
Before husband died, he made me to understand that he deposited the sum of $32 million (Thirty two Million U.S. Dollars) when he was still the secretary of OPEC with a finance house in oversea. Please, I hereby request for your urgent assistance to help my family in investing the money as a partnership investment with your company or any investment that both of us will benefit from it. Presently, this money is still under the safe keeping of the finance house in oversea. I dont want my husbands relatives to know about this development.
Please tell me in confidence, can you handle it? Can you invest this huge amount of money successfully on behalf of my family? Have you ever handled such amount of money before? How old are you? Please advise most urgently.
In a short while, my eldest daughter and son who are studying in Europe will meet with you in the finance house office in Europe where the investment fund is deposited by their late father for easy claim and quick transfer. My Eldest daughter and son will assisting me to facilitate this transaction and both of you will make arrangements to have this funds transferred through a nominated joint account which you will both open for the money transfer. You will need to meet with both of them as soon as possible.With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply, I will issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original-beneficiary of this fund with other related documents. Also, I will forward to you my personal information for recognition and trust before you proceed contact with the Finance house in Oversea, so that they will contact you as the beneficiary of this fund before going their with my daughter to claim the fund /transfering the fund into your nominated Bank Account in your country.
Yours in Sincerely,
Mrs. Magret H.B. Kazeem.
