Greetings from me and my family.
FROM: NOH DAE-JUNG
Getting your contact was not an easy task because since I am not
computer literate, I ordered my son to seek a partner very far away and
he went to the institute of International Business to apply and he paid
them the charges.
My name is NOH DAE-JUNG, The brother of GENERAL. NOH TAE-WOO, the
former President of South Korea who ascended to power through a popular
electoral victory in 1988 to 1992. After serving duly, he was accused
of mass embezzlement which ran into billions of won because of the
GREAT OLYMPICS 1988 which brought Korea to the world lime light, and
was arrested but released after long years of incarceration and now
under scrutiny.
Before my brother's was overthrown, I secretly siphoned the sum of 30
million United States Currency out of Seoul and deposited the money
with a security firm that transports valuable goods and through
diplomatic means.I am contacting you because I want you to deal with
the security company and claim the money on my behalf since I have
declared that the consignment belong to my foreign business partner.
You shall also be required to assist me in investment in your country.
I expect you to declare what percentage of the total money you will
take for your assistance. When I receive your positive response I will
let you know where the security company is and the payment pin code to
claim the money which is very important.we do not want the government
of my Country to know about the money because they will believe I got
the money from my brother while he was still in office as president .
Once you confirm the receipt of the money ,I will come over with my
Children to your Country or any Country in Europe to start a new life
with my Family.
As soon as payment is effected, and the amount mentioned above is
successfully transferred into your account, we intend to use our own
share in acquiring some estates abroad. For this too you shall also be
our overseas manager of all our properties and you will be paid based
on a certain percentage agreed on by both parties. For now, let all our
communication be by e-mail because my line is right now connected to
the South Korean Telecommunication Network services therefore we can
not take the chances of being heard.
Thank you in anticipation of your cooperation.
Yours faithfully,
Col,Noh Dae-Jung [rtd]
