Subject: From The Procurement Manager of Metaluxgroup and Trading Company Int. uk
Brief Introduction; I am Mr Edward Wood, 40years old, a Citizen of United kingdom, Procurement Manager to Metalux Group and Trading Company Int. I am soliciting for a dependable individual who will be able to handle multiple-tasks with whom I can transact a well profitable Business. Presently I have been assigned on a project to search for a product called (CRYSTALLITE MULTIGEM-CLEANSER-xhg)
The Crystallite Multi-Cleanser-xhg is a new scientific chemical fluid substance manufactured in North Korea, is of lubricant mainly used in the geological laboratory for the purification of diamonds and other precious stones listed below;
(1) Tanzanite
(2) Citrine
(3) Pink topaz
(4) Aquamarine
(5) Ruby
(6) Sapphire
(7) Zircon (both blue and colorless)
These product are rare and in high demand here in Britain, though not long it came to existence, it was introduce to our company by a Chinese friend, Mrs. Liz Wong, a gemologist in Canada, In a moment, we have searched to a conclusive point that this said product are specifically found in the South/East Coast of Asia in which we can purchase a large amount for supply at an affordable price in Taiwan and Malaysia. The management of (Metaluxgroup) have mandated to come over to Asia to purchase the product mentioned above but I need the correspondence of a reliable partner, who will stand as the distributor becuase I don't want our marketing manager to go directly to the dealer because I have quoted the cost to be GBP £2,700, per pack equivalent USD $5,072.82 rate in Malaysian riggit MYR 18,623.89 and the management agreed with the offered price.
The actual selling price from the dealers in Asia is GBP £ 1,500 per pack-equivalent to USD $2,822.12 rate in Malaysian riggit MYR 10,346.60, While it is sold here in Britain at the rate of GBP £3,500 to Geological Companies. My appeal to you is for your assistance, to get the product from the dealers then sale to our company at the stipulated price as stated above, thereafter the profit will be shared between me and you base on percentage. The management is willing to purchase minimum of 20 packs and maximum of 30packs. (huge profit) Well it will be my pleasure to handle this transaction with you.
Note that the transaction will continue pending on your co-operation towards this first deal. For more information please do contact me with the E-mail address as shown below;
Yours Faithfully,
Mr Edward Wood
