FROM THE DESK OF: Barrister David Haruna Esq.
(PRINCIPAL PARTNER)
STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL .
ATTN: CEO/ MD
I am Barrister David Haruna Esq, a Nigerian citizen. I was a former
minister in- charge of the Solid Mineral Resources Ministry under
the Late General Sanni Abacha, Nigerian former Head of State.
I am a Lawyer by profession and long time standing counsel, to the
Abacha family over the legal proceeding currently going on between the
Federal Government of Nigeria and the widow of General Sanni Abacha,
Mrs. Mariam Abacha.
As the family Legal Councel, I have the mandate and the authority of
the family to source and procure a partnership agreement with a trusted
and honest fellow Abroad who may wish to cooperate with us in order to
relocate some of the family fortune in our care over US$650 Million
(Six Hundred and Fifty Million United States Dollar)
Despite the out of court settlement reached between the family and
Federal Government, over 20 Bank Accounts belonging to the has been
frozen and the family property worth over US$500 Million (Five Hundred
Million United State Dollars) in Real Estate has been auctioned.
The attempt made by my client (Mrs.mariam Abacha) to travel to Saudi
Arabia was detected by security operatives and over 35 suitcases filled
with Dollars, worth about US$300M (Three Hundred million United State
Dollars) was confiscated. She has been under house arrest and does not
have access to reach out to anyone except my good self who is the
family attorney.
My Client has therefore engaged the services of a Senior United
Nation’s Nigerian diplomat to assist in carrying some money for safe
delivering to any destination of agreement under the cover of His
diplomat immunity. He has promised to deliver and has been handsomely
settled for his assignment.
Having accepted to cooperate in discharging this assignment, Mrs.
Abacha has promised to Reward any assistance with 30% of every
successful transaction. As you may wish, the funds can not be
transferred through a Bank Account for security reasons of which you
know the implication. But with our planned arrangement with the Senior
Diplomat, there will be no risk on both sides.
Please do contact me, through the following –
barristerdavidharuna2009@rediffmail.com
to furnish you with the details of the movement of money. We intend to
start with the initial Discharge of the sum of US$20 Million (twenty
Million United State Dollars Only).
This transaction is highly confidential and should be treated with
utmost trust and secrecy.
I look forward to your anticipated co-operation.
