WE ASK FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THE NAME OF ALLAH
ATTN.THE PRESIDENT/CEO.
You may be surprise to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally, but for the purpose of introduction. I am MRS. AYSHA AHMED. The wife of MR.SULEMAN AHMED, an Iraqi citizen. I got your contact from the South African information Exchange (S.A.I.E) here in Johannesburg and I decided to write for assistance.
My late Husband was among the few Iraqis rich politicians murdered in cold blood by the agents of the ruling government of president saddam Hussein for his alleged support and sympathy for our citizen of Iraq opposition party controlled by the president. Before the death of my husband, he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of EIGHTING MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATE DOLLARS (US$18.5 MILLION),with the security and finance company, as if he foresaw the looming danger in Iraq.
The money was deposited in a consignment as a family valuable use/precious stone to the Security Company to avoid seizure, and also to avoid much demurrage from the Security Company. This money was embarked for the purpose of new machinery and for the campaigning for the parties in my country.
This problem arose when president GEORGE BUSH intended to invade the country Iraq which remove the former president saddam Hussein which affected rich people and some few foreigners vehemently condemned the "Modus Operandi" adopted by the government, this resulted to rampant killings and mob actions by the war veterans and some political thugs. Precisely, more than hundred-thousand (100,000.00) people have been killed ever since the evention, which my husband was a victim.
Heads of Government from the west, especially British and United States of America have voiced their condemnation of sadam Hussein’s plan. Subsequently the South Africa Government community (S.A.D.C) has continuously supported the Arab world.
It is against this background that I and my children who are currently staying in South Africa have decided to transfer my late Husband money into a foreign accounts, as the only Wife of my late husband, I am saddled with the responsibilities of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of Government who are technically freezing our family wealth .
We are faced with the dilemma of investing this amount in South Africa for fear of seizure and encountering the same experience in future since both countries have almost the same history. Moreso, the South Africa foreign Exchange policy does not allow such investment since we are asylum seeker. As a businessman who we must entrust our future on his/her hands, I must let you know that this transaction is very free. Therefore, if you accept us we are willing to offer you 25% of the total sum for your assistance, 70% will be for my family investment in your country while 5% will be used for all expenses that you might be
incurred during the process of the transaction. If this proposal is acceptable to you, contact my son (FAROUK AHMED) on
Email; farouk2005@webmail.co.za

FULL NAME
TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBER
PLACE OF WORK
Thanks for your time wait to hear from you soonest.
May Allah be with you and your family.
Best regards
MS. AYSHA AHMED
For the family.
