Subject: Request for Business Proposal
Greetings!
I have a proposal for you, this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honor against your will. I am Dr. Khaled Abdullah a former executive director with Arab Tunisian Bank here in Tunis; I retired 1 year 7 months ago after putting in 28 years of meticulous service. During my days with Arab Tunisian Bank, I was the personal account officer and one of the financial advisers to Zine Al-Abidine Ben Ali the past Tunisian President in self exile at Saudi Arabia. During his trying period, he instructed me to move all his investment in my care which consists of US$210M and 167KG of gold out of the Gulf States for safe keeping; and that I successfully did by moving US$120M to Madrid Spain, US$40M to Turkey, US$50M to UAE and the 167KG of gold to Accra Ghana in West Africa as an anonymous deposits, so that the funds will in no way be traced to him. He has instructed me to find an investor who would stand as the anonymous depositor of the fund and gold; and claim it for further investment.
Consequent upon the above, my proposal is that I would like you as a foreigner to stand in as the anonymous depositor of this fund and gold that I have successfully moved outside the country and provide an account overseas where this said fund will be transferred into. It is a careful network and my voluntary retirement from the Arab Tunisian Bank is to ensure a hitch-free operation as all modalities for you to stand as beneficiary and owner of the deposits has been perfected by me. Mr. Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali will be offering you 20% of the total investment if you can be the investor and claim this deposits in Spain and Italy as the anonymous depositor.
Now my questions are:-
1. Can you handle this transaction?
2. Can I give you this trust?
Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible on my private email address [email protected] or [email protected] so that I can give you more details regarding this transaction.
Finally, it is my humble request that the information as contained herein be accorded the necessary attention, urgency as well as the secrecy it deserves.
I expect your urgent response if you can handle this project.
Respectfully yours,
Dr. Khaled Abdullah.
