Dear Friend
I bring peace and love to you from God and our lord jesus christ.I am
DR.
Dato' N. Sadasivan from Central Bank Of Malaysia. i am one of the
branch
manager in malaysia .i got your contact through the internet
directory. I
have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On
April
6, 1998, a Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the Saudi Arabia
National
Petroleum Corporation, Dr. Hussain M. AL-Madani made a numbered time
(Fixed) Deposit for some months, valued at S$29,500,000.00 (Twenty
Nine
Million Five hundred Thousand Dollars only) in my branch.
Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding Address
but
got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we
discovered
from his contract employers, the saudi arabia National Petroleum
Corporation
that Dr. Hussain M. AL-Madani died on 1 February 2000 in a plane
crash on
air Senegal on aircraft Name Hawker Snidely HS-748. This crash happened
in
Tambacoumba, Senegal, Africa and the Registration number of the
aircraft is
6AV-AEO, and since his untimely death the funds has been dormant in his
account with my Bank without any claim of the fund On further
investigation,
I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to
trace
his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Dr. Hussain
M.
AL-Madani did not declare any kin or relations in all his official
documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of
US$29,500,000.00 has carefully been moved out of my bank to a security
Company for safekeeping. No one will ever come forward to claim it.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as an Foreigner to
Stand
in as the owner of the money I deposited it in a security company in
two
trunk boxes though the security company does not know the contents of
the
boxes as I tagged them to be photographic materials for export. I am
writing
you because I as a public servant, we can not operate a foreign account
or
have an account that is more than $1m.I want to present you as the
owner of
the boxes in the security company so you can be able to claim them with
the
help of my attorney. all these are to make sure that the fruits of this
old
man's labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government
officials. This is simple. I will like you to provide immediately your
full
personal datals as below.
(1) Your full name
(2) Your private phone & fax numbers
(3) Your full residential address
(4) Occupation & your nationality
(5) Age
Also scan a copy of your identity so that my Attorney will prepare
the necessary documents which will put you in place as the owner of
the
boxes. The money will be moved out for us to share in the ratio of 65%
for
me and 30% for you and 5% will take care of all expensives. There is
no
risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction Will be done by
the
Attorney and this will guarantee the successful execution of this
transaction.
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and
relevant
documents that will help you understand the transaction. Please i do
not
need any telephone comunications in order not to create any suspicious
because of the directors always around me,i preffered we discuss on
for a confidental talk or i can always call you to my own convinient
time.
Please observe with utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that
This
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall
require
your assistance to invest my share in your country.lastly i will like
you to
reply me back to my private email address:Sadasivan_dato@yahoo.com
