My Dear Friend
I got your contact address through internet browsing in my search for a
reliable and trustworthy person who will assist me in a business investment
venture in your country I am Mrs Luisa Loi Ejercito Estrada the wife of
MR.JOSEPH ESTRADA the former president of the
Philippines located in Southeast Asia.
My husband was impeached from office by a backed uprising of mass
demostrators and the senate. The present government is forcing my husband
out of Manila to avoid demonstration by his supporters. During my husband
regime as president of Philippines i realised
millions of dollars from various contracts projects I executed successfully.
I had plans to invest this money for my children's future on real estate and
industrial production. My husband is not aware of this because I wish to do
it secretly for now.
Before my husband was impeached from office I concretely and secretly
deposited this money and declared it as solid Gold bar with a security
company that transports valuable goods and consignments through a diplomatic
courier service to their adhoc offices. The consignment or boxes I declared
owned by my foreign business partner. I am willing to give you
30% out of the total sum if You will be willing to assist me claim this
money and invest the money as I assure you 100% risk free business
transaction. I am trusting you as a God fearing person that you will not sit
on my funds when it gets into your account but rather assist me in this
business venture. This business demands absolute secrecy and
confidentiality so all communication for now shall be through email because
our lines are connected to the philippines telecommunication network
services. I will furnish you with more details when I receive your positive
response.
Thanks.
Mrs LUISA EJERCITO ESTRADA
