Dear Zuhair
We got your contact from the directory. There is a business we want to transact with you/your company. My name is Mr. John Morris, of Hallmark Manufacturing Incorporation, based in London.
We are desirous of establishing mutual business relationship with you. Our company deals on customized products such as Diamond mixture and gems which we have been purchasing from Basra Southern Iraq but we have good information of availability of same in Saudi Arabia but we are having problem from the owner of the product due to language barrier. We also Purchase these materials from other parts of the world.
We contacted the owner of the product through his telephone but could not understand his language as he speaks Arabic. This is why we need a reliable company/individual that will help us link with the man. His name is Mawruzq Mohammed. Please if this proposal interests you do get back to us for modalities and we will also give you the telephone number for you to call and confirm if he has the product we need, the prize and the name of the product because the one we want is White & Purple Diamond Mixture.
We use to buy from Basra Southern Iraq at the rate of $400 per gram and we need about 50 kilos. Assist us to know if the man has up to 50Kilos and each gram we are buying, we are adding $10 for your assistance.
Please immediately you confirm, kindly call on us for notification, so as to enable us arrange for our representative that will come with the cash. We are waiting for your confirmation so as to arrange for the Visa.
Sir, we are seriously in need of the product because of lack of materials in our company. Once you confirm it, we will be coming twice in a month. Please co-operate with us because this is a business that will last long.Thanks.
