Dear Sir,
The purpose of my writing to you is because I am searching for a
foreign business partner who is in a position to assist me with my
urgent business proposal, as time is not on my side. A partner, who
understands what confidentiality, means and who has the necessary
facilities I require in embarking on this important venture. I decided
to contact you through email as it has remained the only possible
means I consider safe to contact you. I apologize if this is not
suitable to you.
We want to transfer to abroad Sixteen Million Five Hundred Thousand
United States Dollars from A Security
Company, Incubadoras Trust
Inc., Spain Branch, situated in the above location in Spain. I am
contacting you in a non-official capacity. to
provide either an existing bank Account or to set up a new bank account
immediately to receive this money, even
an empty account can serve to receive this money, as long as you will
remain honest to the transaction.
We Will Start The First Transfer With Six Million U.S.Dollars
Upon Successful Transfer Without Any Disappointment
>From Your Side, We Shall Re-Apply For The Transfer Of The Remaining Ten
Million United States Dollars
I am , an Accountant, with Incubadoras Trust Inc., Spain. During the
Course
of Our Auditing, I discovered a floating fund in an account opened with
the security Company in 1990 and since
1993 nobody has operated on this account again. After going through
some old files in the records, I discovered
that the owner of the account died without an
[Heir], Hence the money has been floating and if I do not remit this
money out urgently it will be forfeited
for nothing to the Spanish Government. From my investigations I found
out that the owner of this
account was Mr. Garcia Ryszard, a foreigner, and an Industrialist, he
died since 1993 and no other person knows
about this account or anything concerning it except and most probably
you as you read this letter.
The account has no beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as
well that Mr. Garcia Ryszard until his
death was the Managing Director, Garhaus Fuchs, GMBH.
I am contacting you as a foreigner because this money can only be
approved to a foreigner with a valid
International Passport, Drivers License and foreign account because the
money is in US Dollars and the
former owner of the account Mr.Garcia Ryszard is a foreigner. I am
revealing all this to you with the belief
that you will never let me down in this business. For your active
participation, I have two options of
compensating you. Firstly you can choose to have 25% of
the total money for your assistance or you can go into partnership with
me for the proper and profitable
investment of the entire money in your country in any lucrative
business you will advise me of. Of course, the
investment must be under your direct management and
supervision. As soon as the money has been transferred into your
account, I shall come to your country and meet
you face to face to work out the modalities of the investments.
Please notify me of your choice in your reply. I have also set aside 5%
of the total sum for all kinds of
expenses that may come our way in the process of this transaction.
Please note that this 5% for expenses is not
with me at the moment but shall be deducted from the
money as soon as you have received it in your account. Be informed that
this transaction is risk free as all
modalities have been put in place for a hitch free transaction.
To commence this transaction, I require you to immediately indicate
your interest by a return e-mail to the
above address and enclose your private contact telephone number, fax
number, full name and address.
Please reply to my private email

Thanks.
Pedro Benito
