Subject: PLEASE ASSIST ME.
DEAR FRIEND.
I am contacting you today for a profitable business
prosposal. My name is PAUL RISY ,Iam the personal assistant
to late Mr.muhammad El-Sahedi. EL-Sahedi was an oil merchant
from Iran but resident in Nigeria. He carried on his oil and
petroleum transactions from Nigeria but exported to
overseas. EL-Sahedi died recently in Iran as a result of the
earthquake that hit that country.He died along with his
whole Family.
Apart from being his personal assistant I was also his best
Friend and confidant.I was therefore in a position to know
all his Financial transactions as he trusted me . Mr.Sahedi
had a deposit of usd$40.5 million with a famous security and
finance company here which i want you to help me receive and
transfer into your bank account Till i come over to join
you for sharing and investment as you may direct me.
IF you agree to assist me ,I WILL GIVE YOU all the details
of the transaction and the process of receiving the funds
because you will act as the next of kin to MR.SAHEDI.For
assisting me in this business you will take 20% of THE
USD$40.5 MILLION.as your share and I will take 70% as my
share while the remaining 10% will take care of the expenses
we may incure at the process of the transaction.
You will keep my share for me till I join you in your
country a few weeks after the transfer is made.
I want you to understand that I am not a dishonest Man. I am
only doing this because if the security company discovers
that Mr. Sahedi and all his relations are dead ,they will
turn over the money to government and this will not help me.
please note that there is no risk in this business as no
relation of Mr. Sahedi is alive today and the security firm
does not know he is dead. When you transfer the money the
security firm will assume it is Mr. Sahedis next of kin who
is doing the transer because I will provide you with his
letters of administration to empower you as his next of kin.
It was when I lEARNT OF his death that I went to his room to
search for the paper work [Documents] relating to the said
deposit. I Found them in concealed [secret] drawer in his
bedroom.
please reply this message soonest.my alternative email
address as follows,paulrisy3@aemail4u.com.
Yours sincerely.
PAUL RISY.
