Subject: FROM MR.HENRY GREEN
Dear Sir,
It is quite unrealistic sending such message over the internet because of numerous nefarious activities, hacking and scams that befall the world these days; but I apologise for this and would humbly wish you pardon my ignorance and spend some time to think over my proposal.
My name is Mr.Henry Green.I have an investment proposition for you and I feel I can share the suggestion with someone I can trust. I don't know you from Adam but I believe we can be of mutual benefit to each other.
Should you be interested, please forward to me your full name, contact address, contact telephone and fax number to enable me ascertain your trustworthiness and send the details to you.
I anticipate your cooperation to this matter.
Please kindly get back to me via this email address: mrhenrygreen0020@myway.com
Yours Faithfully,
Mr.Henry Green.
