Subject: Fully secured
My humble greetings to you,
My name is Edward Patton and i was recently contacted by some officials from the oil-rich country to look for a capable person who can be presented as a figurehead for the movement of Twenty five Million United States Dollars through a much-legalized means of transfer,Please keep this piece of information a secret. You will get 30% of the total amount after your successful cooperation. These are top government officials who do not want their identity revealed. The money is the proceeds of an oil deal fully secured and ready to be released.
Should you be interested, kindly respond to my message as soon as possible for more details, this legit and backed up with all its legal documents.
Regards,
Mr.Edward Patton.
