My aim of writing you is to seek for your kindness assistance to allow me
quickly transfer the sum of US$15.million dollars, into your account. It

president Saddam Hussein, ordered his youngest son, Qusay, to remove the sum
of US$1.billion (£640 million) from the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) The cash
which was loaded on to three lorries.
That memorable day Qusay and a senior aide to the late president Saddam
Hussein delivered the instruction in person to the bank's governor of the
Central Bank of Iraq (CBI). And the money was removed without proper
official documentations. The money was not debited. It was just remove from
the foreign reserve vault. This illegal withdrawer created opportunity for
our staffs working in the foreign payments department. We hastingly remove
from the vault the sum of US$75.million, which we shared among ourselves
working in the department, five in number. My share was US$15.million, the
deal which was absolutely successfully, I am now seeking your help to allow
