Subject: Hello Dear,
Hello Dear,
Wishing you a pleasant day. How are you and your family, I hope everyone is
doing well, my regards.... With due respect, trust and humility, I write to
you irrespective of the fact you do not know me, but please do consider this
letter as a request from a brother in dire need of assistance. I got your
contact over the Internet when I am searching for a reliable and trustworthy
individual or company that can assist me start a new life and invest on a
lucrative business. I am Mr Raymond Hills I live at number 46 Abu-Nawas
street here in Iraq. I am a native of Mayaguez in Puerto Rico. I was born
and brought up here in Iraq and have never been in my hometown since I was
born. I am the only surviving child of my family. My Father was a rich Crude
Oil merchant before he was killed by bomb blast on his way home. I am
dispossessed from my rightful civil liberties.
My father knew that my situation might change when he is no longer there for
me. Before his death, he told me that he escaped death many times from
revolutionaries and his business associate because of greed and envy. For
that reason, he advised that in no condition would I decide to reside here
for the sake of my life. He gave me a box that contain the sum of Six
Million USA Dollars, also told me to relocate and start a new life with the
fund in another peaceful country. I Have made arrangements with UN Agent who
promised to deliver the Fund to any of my beneficiary. I will like to come
over to you to reside permanently, invest with you and start a good living
without fear. I need your assistance to get back to good living because I
have nothing left; the fund in question is the only hope I have. If you
decide to help me out of this predicament, I will compensate you handsomely
when I arrive to you before any investment.
Please if you think you can assist me in this, reply with your Full Name,
Telephone Number and Your home address where the fund would be delivered.
You need not to worry because there is no risk in it. We use to come across
such funds but you cannot invest here, and this is not the first fund being
evacuated via diplomatic means from here.On receiving your response, I will
give your information to the UN Diplomat so that he will make a contact with
you before delivery. Please tell me more about your self, what you do for a
living and more about your area where you live.
Bless you,
Raymond Hills.
