From: Elaine Aristide <emailelaine104@yahoo.com>
Date: Thu, 10 May 2007 13:12:44 -0700 (PDT)
Subject: FROM MRS ELAINE ARISTIDE
Dear friend,
It is my honor to request your assistance on this business proposition which if pursued to its conclusion will be of immense benefit to both of us.This request may seem strange but I hope you will give it attention and respond to me as soon as possible.
I am Elaine Aristide, from Haiti the wife of the exiled former President, Jean Berthran Aristide my HUSBAND was the president of my country before he was forced to exile some years ago. You may have read or heard so many stories about him and his political history as wrongfully aired by his assailants who overthrew his government.
Also there was a grand conspiracy to systematically destroy all that is owned by my father,that is why I am seeking your immediate assistance.My son and myself tried and eventually succeeded in securing some of these assets,which include a mansion and some physical cash.We left Haiti with the total amount of six million United States Dollars only USD $6,000,000 which we deposited same sealed in a DIPLOMATIC VAULT as valued diplomatic documents belonging to our foreign affiliates.
After depositing the money,we were left with no other option than to SEEK SAFETY in another country which i will disclose to you later.The problem now is that we are looking for a trustworthy partner in a stable economy who can help us move the money out of the Security company.In that case,I want to know if you can help me transfer the funds into your account in your country or elsewhere since time is not on my side.
I will offer you 20% of the total sum,five percent will be set aside for any expenses if any that might be incurred by both parties during the transaction,while the remaining 75% will be used for investment.Also you will be entitled to five percent payment from annual turnover in whatever business undertaking you advice us to go into.
However,this arrangement will only hold for a period of ten consecutive years.
I expect your immediate response so that we can conclude this transaction in the very shortest time,I wish you also keep this business highly confidential and secret.As soon as i get your response,i will give more details on how to proceed for the funds claim.
Yours Sincerely,
Mrs.Elaine Aristide
