My Dear Friend,
Compliments of the season.I did like to send to you the best wishes of good
health and success in your pursuits particularly through my proposal as
contained in this letter. i may not wish to disclose how I got your email
address for now. After due deliberation with my son,I decided to forward to
you this business proposal, we want you to assist us .I will give you more
information. As to this regard as soon as you reply.
I am Mrs. Rita Diatta . I am contacting you with the hope that you will be
of great assistance to me, I currently have within my reach the sum of $ 5.3
million U.S dollars cash which I intend to use for investment purposes.
I therefore personally appeal to you seriously and religiously for your
urgent assistance to move this money in to your country where I believe it
will be safe since I cannot leave the country due to the restriction of
movement imposed on the members of my family by the Senegal Government.
This money came as a result of a payback contract deal between my husband
and a Russian firm in our country.The Russian partners returned my husbands
share .Presently, the Government has intensified their probe in to my
husbands financial resources which has led to the freezing of all our
accounts, local and foreign, the revoking of all our business licences and
the arrest of my First son.
In view of this I want to acted very fast to withdraw this money from one
of our finance houses before it will be closed down.My husband deposited
the money in a finance firm for safe keeping . No record is known about
this fund by the government because there is no documentation showing that
we have such funds.
Further more, my elder son have been in detention in the last four years
following the death of my late husband for charges of State organized murder
and corrupt practices. he was just been released by the Supreme Court after
the president brokered a deal with my family regarding his freedom. and he
is still under interrogation about my late husband's assets and some vital
documents.
Due to the current situation in the country and government attitude to my
family,I cannot make use of this money within, thus I seek your help in
transferring this funds out for investment than leaving the fund here and
to invest the money to profit my family Bearing in mind that you may assist
me.l have decided to part with 25% of the total sum.
I am seriously considering to settle down abroad in a friendly atmosphere
like yours as soon as this fund get into your account so that I can start
all over again if only you wish. I shall ask my son Mohammed to come over to
your country to liaise with you. If this proposal satisfies you. please do
not let me out to the security as I am giving you this information
in total trust and confidence.
Please kindly reply by return mail and please include your personal
telephone and fax numbers. Conclusively,we have decided part with 25% of the
total sum. of the total sum,10% will be for expenses incurred during
thecause of this transaction, while 65% is to be held on trust by you until
we can decide on a suitable business investment in your country subsequent
to our free movement by the Senegal Government.
I will greatly appreciate if you accept my proposal in good faith.
Your URGENT response is needed.
Regards and God Bless you.
Mrs.Rita Diatta
