Dear Friend
I am Brian Marzhan and I represent Mr. Mikhail B. Khordokovsky the former
C.E.O of Yukos Oil Company in Russia. I have a very sensitive and
confidential brief from him to ask for your partnership in re-profiling
funds in a private bank investment portfolio in London. I will give
the details, but in summary, the funds are coming via Bank Menatep in Russia.
This is a legitimate transaction. You will be paid 5% of the portfolio
investment value as your "management fees". If you are interested, please
write back to me via my private E-mail and provide me with your confidential
telephone number, fax number and email address and I will provide further
details and if you are satisfied I can proceed with the instructions.
l suggest that you contact me only via my private email:
albbizzrussia@yahoo.es
Please we can not afford any political problems because of recent events in
Russia. So I will advice you keep this to your self. Finally, please note
that this must be concluded within reasonable time frame therefore your prompt reply is essential.
Write me back. I look forward to it.
- Bizzanelli Alberto
