FROM THE CHAMBER OF ANTONIA,
ATTN SIR,
I`M BARRISTER ROYLES ANTONIA,UNITED NATIONS LAWYER IN CAIRO EGYPT, I AM CONTACTING YOU IN RESPECT OF MY CLIENT WHO IS CURRENTLY TAKING MEDICATION IN THE UN HOSPITAL EMERGENCE WARD, WEEKS AGO ON THEIR WAY TO BASRA FROM BAGHDAD WHEN THEIR CONVOY CAME UNDER ATTACK FROM AN IMPROVISHED ROADSIDE DEVICE, BOMBBLAST WHICH KILLED 4 OF HIS WORKERS, HE IS SERIOUSLY INJURIED AND WILL UNDERGO TWO MAJOR OPERATIONS ACCORDING TO THE DOCTORS,,HE IS A CONTRACTOR SUPPLING EQUIPMENT FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF BASRA OIL REFINERY IN IRAQ.
MY PURPOSE OF CONTACTING YOU, IS BECAUSE MY CLIENT MR. BILL NELSON WANTS ME TO HELP HIM CONTACT ANY GOOD PARTNER TO INVEST THE SUM OF $8.5 MILLION DOLLAR WHICH WAS PAID TO HIS ACCOUNT BY THE NEW IRAQ GOVT , FOR SUPPLIES OF MATERIALS TO REBUILD THE OIL REFINERY DAMAGED BY BOMBS DURING THE WAR BY U.S, AND HE WAS PLANNING TO TAKE THIS MONEY OUT OF IRAQ TO EGYPT, BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF SECURITY ,UNFORTUNATELY THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED.
THEN MONEY WAS IN IRAQ,INSIDE AN IRON TRUNK BOX WITH THE ALIEN FORCES SECURITY COMPANY AND I AM DISCUSSING WITH THEM AS MR.NELSON`S LEGAL ADVISER TO COLLECT THE BOX SINCE THE CONTENT OF THE BOX WAS UN DISCLOSED TO THEM.
WELL, THEY HAVE AGREED TO ALLOW ME CARRY THE BOX TO WHERE THE OWNER MR.BILL NELSON HAVE AGREED. AND HE HAVE INSTRUCTED ME TO SEARCH FOR RELIABLE PARTNER FOR INVESTMENT.
I HAVE DEPOSITED THE BOX HERE IN CAIRO EGYPT AT RED CROSS WARE HOUSE ,PARKING STORE, I TOLD THE STORE KEEPER THAT THE CONTENT OF THE BOX IS MEDICINE FOR THE HOSPITAL , NOBODY KNOWS IT`S MONEY ,
I `VE CONTACTED A SECURITY COMPANY HERE TO HELP ME TRANFER THE BOX TO YOU AND MY CLIENT IS READY TO OFFER 5% IF YOU CAN HELP HIM INVEST THIS MONEY IN YOUR COUNTRY.
IF THIS OFFER IS CONSIDERED,PLEASE REPLY AND GIVE ME YOUR CONTACT, TO START THE PROCESS OF THE TRANSFER OF THIS CONSIGNMENT TO YOU IMMEDIATELY AND MIND YOU,IT IS 100% RISK FREE
I EMPLOY YOU TO KEEP THIS TRANSACTION SECRET BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT OF EGYPT MUST NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS TRANSACTION SINCE IT IS AGAINST THE LAW,TO MOVE SUCH AMOUNT OF MONEY OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY
