Subject: MUSTAFA MAHMOUD JEGA
Dear,
I am MUSTAFA MAHMOUD JEGA an Iraqi national and secretary of health a
successful businessman.Of late there was an alleged conspiracy against me by
the ruling government which indicted me along with some other senior
parliament members percieved as opposition to the American invasion.Actually
we are not against the government but rather we wanted the americans and
their allys to appreciate the human santity.Each and every day they kill
innocent citizens in our own backyard.Based on this stance, they have
confiscated my business interest and they alleged that i am one of the chief
financiers of SHEIK MUQTADA ALSADA.
Based on my position, the ruling government has started clamping down on
some my business interest in and outside Iraq.Based on this unfortunate
incident, my economic adviser directed me to make sure that i move some of
funds out of the country and each and every move i take/make in my country
now is been teleguided and monitored.But as luck would have it i was able to
move the fund through the services of diplomatic means out of Iraq.The total
sum is [$USD10.5m]Ten million Five hundred united states dollars is boxed
and the content was disclosed as family valuables or family treasures.
Please all i needed from you now is your utmost sincerity and
trustworthiness as to represent me with this fund and claim it on my behalf
till when this travail will be over.I will be glad if you can furnish me
with your intinaries/information so that i can make it available to the
finance company for the immediate release of the fund to you.It may interest
to know that since i and other members termed as anti-americans invasion
pulled out of the government, we have not known any peace but all i strongly
believe is that Almighty ALLAH will not allow the infidels prevail over us.
As soon as i hear from you, i will then furnish you with the certificate of
deposit and the name of the person you are to contact for the release of the
consignment but please all you need to do for me is to keep it to yourself
for if its discovered,the government and their ally will confiscate it.
The information i require from you is thus:
1]Your full names
2]Your contact address
3]Your Occupation
4]Your Sex and Occupation
5]Your Age and Religion
6]Your dedicated phone and fax numbers.
As soon as i get this information from, i will give you the official
certificate of deposit of the fund and make your information available to
the finance firm for the immediate release of the fund.You also need to give
me a blueprint of likely area where you will invest the fund.
Please write back for possible business collaboration.
Thanking you in advance.
