Subject: JOINT INVESTMENT PROPOSAL
JOINT INVESTMENT PROPOSAL
I am MARY DUKE, a native of ABONNEMA in Rivers State, NIGERIA.
By introduction, I am a bank Manager with Union Bank Plc and my client is
the wife of the former Governor of my State and in the last Government at
Federal levels which handed over to another elected democratic
administration, last May 29th, 2007.
From the fore-going,I hope that, I have properly introduced myself. My
reason for writing you is to solicit for a joint partnership Investment
Venture in your country.
As I earlier stated, of the Chief Executive Officiers, in one of the
Government establishments. My Client has assigned me to seek for a reliable
individual/company who can assist us to invest the sum of $22,000,000 into a
viable and lucrative business venture.
Owing to the continuous Militant aggression in the Niger Delta, that has led
to several cases of abduction and Hostage taking of Foreign Workers of many
Multinational Oil Companies, such like CHEVRON, SHELL,AGIP OIL ETC;
therefore, you can visualize that, the situationwould not augur well for any
good investment venture to thrive.
Also, since my Client has already left Government, and their tenure elapse,
any investment made here will be misconstrued. Given the above detailed
explanation, I hope the mission of this proposal has been understood.
If, you are interested to partner in this venture, you should indicate your
desire, so that, I shall direct you to my Client or her Husband for
conclusion.
Also, I would appreciate to know more about your goodself, your
Bio-Data,Occupation and Business/Corporate autecedent.
Send me your Private/Cell Phone Number, when replying.
Awaiting your urgent action, response and anticipated co-operation.
Yours sincerely,
MARY DUKE
