Subject: With Good Trust
Dear Madras House
Thank you so much for your responses. As you can see my contacting you was born out of inspiration after a very long and powerful prayer session that asked for God's guidance in the choice of a foreign partner that will assist me. A person with vision that will be honest and God fearing in every regard especially at the end of the transaction.Every evidence at hand after the prayers proved that you are such a person and thus my contact to you.
Before I proceed I would want to let you know that my resolve to take this fund out of this place is not born out of any criminal intent. Its purely ideological,because in the next few months to come,i'm sure other staffs will discover that Engr Patrick Kohli, is no more there to service his account and they will call on the respective Government agency which automatically hand this money over to the corrupt Government officials. They will eventually use it for themselves.History vindicates the just.
Pleased be rest assured that 35% of the entire sum will go to you at the end of the transaction,that is why your participation is of immense importance to the successful conclusion of this transaction.
Please note,the procedure for the transfer is a straight process that will not incriminate you in anyway whatsoever.The documentations relating to the transfer will be destroyed as soon as the transfer is made.
You are to act as the next of kin to the deceased(Engr Patrick Kohli).You will be expected to contact the bank here and request that the fund(U.S.$12.5,000,000.00 only) be transfered to your account. Before then i will use my position in the bank to update deceased's bank information with your name and address as his next of kin.
In that case,i need your ,telephone/fax, On receipt of it hopefully later today or tomorrow i will advise you on the next step.
I am quite happy with the development so far; i like to say you have my regards,though I know very little about you for now.
I will wait for your feedback later today; untill then my prayers are with you and your family. Please call me now +234-1-4732762, i will like to have your telephone
Best regards,
Dr Man
