Subject: Waiting for your email now
Hello Dear,
My name is Mrs. Hassana Muhammed, the wife of Mr. Sani Muhammed from
Nigeria who was doing business with you. I have been looking for your email
and contact address for almost 3 months now since my husband died. He told
me that a consignment was sent to you through a diplomatic means also that
the consignment contained $10M but since then, you have not emailed him to
let him know what actually went wrong.
It was just yesterday that I received a call from the diplomat carrying the
consignment and he told me that he is still in London because he was robbed of
his money and all his belongings including your address and phone contacts but
that the consignment is safe at the diplomatic quarters.
I don't know you before but I guess you are the right person I am writing.
I want you to email me now your full details (Name and address, telephone and
fax numbers) so that I can forward it to the diplomat in London for him to
leave immediately because he needs your details to call you first before
leaving.
That is the only thing holding him there. He said he has been able to get
money from someone to ship the consignment and he is joining the next flight
to deliver the consignment to you. Please be informed that he is not aware
of the content of the consignment. We need this to be done immediately so
that you can send us our share and take yours because my family is going
through hard time since I lost my husband.
Email me the details now and the diplomat will call you from London to
inform you of his movement.
Waiting for your email now.
Regards,
Mrs. Hassana Muhammed
