Atten, {HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL}
(RE: TRANSFER OF (THIRTY SIX MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE THOUSAND EUROS.)
RE:TRANSFER OF 36,759,000.00 MILLION EUROS TO YOUR ACCOUNT. My name is Anthony Adams, and I work
in the International Operation Department in a Bank here in Netherlands.I feel quite safe
dealing with you in this important business.Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly
abused, I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest medium of
communication and would like us initiate a proper and structured relationship. However, this
correspondence is unofficial and private, and it should be treated as absolute confidentiality
and with professionalism.
At first I will like to assure you that that this transaction is 100% risk and trouble free to
both parties. WE WANT TO TRANSFER OUT MONEY FROM OUR BANK HERE IN THE NETHERLANDS. THE FUND FOR
TRANSFER IS OF CLEAN ORIGIN. THE OWNER OF THIS ACCOUNT IS A FOREIGNER, a program leader. Until
his eath,The Late Prime Minister, Mr. Rafik Hariri,Who has a huge investment here in the
Netherlands and all over the world, as a matter of fact he has the sum of(THIRTY SIX MILLION
SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE THOUSAND EUROS) in his account here in Holland which he deposited
as a family valuables.The family do not know about this deposit as it was done by self. I was on
a routine inspection that I discovered a dormant domiciliary account with a BAL. Of (THIRTY SIX
MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE THOUSAND EUROS) on further discreet investigation, I also
discovered that the account holder has passed away (dead) leaving no beneficiary to the account.
The bank will approve this money to any foreigner because the former operator of the a/c is a
foreigner.
I am certainly sure that nobody will come again for the claim of this money. A foreigner can
only claim this money with legal claims to the account Holder with all precise documentations,
therefore I need your cooperation in this transaction. I will have provide all necessary
information needed in order to claim this money, Hoping in God that you will never let me down
now and in future.o.k! Rafik Bahaa Edine Hariri (November 1, 1944 - February 14, 2005), married
to Nazek Audi Hariri,He was a a Lebanese self-made billionaire and business tycoon.A five times
Prime Minister of Lebanon (1992-1998 and 2000-2004) before his last resignation from office on
October 20, 2004. The late Rafik Hariri died on February 14, 2005 when explosives equivalent to
around 300 kg of C4 were detonated as his motorcade drove past the Saint George Hotel in the
Lebanese capital, for more information please log on to (http://www.hariri.info).
I WANT TO TRANSFER THIS MONEY INTO A SAFE FOREIGN ACCOUNT ABROAD BUT I DON'T KNOW ANY FOREIGNER
WHOM I CAN TRUST, I KNOW THAT THIS MESSAGE WILL COME TO YOU AS A SURPRISE AS WE DON'T KNOW
OURSELVES BEFORE, BUT BE SURE THAT IT IS REAL AND A GENUINE BUSINESS VENTURE THAT CAN CATAPULT
ALL PARTIES TO A NEW LEVEL. I CONTACT YOU BELIEVING THAT YOU WILL NOT LET ME DOWN ONCE THE FUND
GOES INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.
