Subject: Re: Hi Friend, Just To Inform You About This Proposal.
How are you doing today? I hope this email finds you healthy and safe.
This letter may come to you as a surprise, but I want you to
understand that it is only through an opportunity that people can meet
each other and become friends and business partners in life. Though,
the society today is so unpredictable that the good and the bad live
side by side coupled with the monumental hype and crap of the abuse of
the Internet by some unscrupulous persons in recent times, thereby
making it extremely difficult for genuine and legitimate business
class persons to get attention and recognition. However, the Internet
was established for easy communication and business transactions of
far partners but today, the same internet is used to deceive some
business class persons so I will not be surprised to see you rejecting
this proposal just because of what bad eggs have done to the internet
today. Nevertheless, I want you to understand that there are still
genuine and legitimate business class persons in the internet world
today so I am assuring you that this transaction is 100% genuine. You
can give it a trial.
I am Mr. Gilbert Gui, I work with the Ministry of Mines & Energy
Cambodia, I am the Head of Finance/contract approval department.
Really, I do not know how best to begin. I am afraid, not because I am
not sure of my plans or myself but because I am not sure the kind of
person you are and what would be your reaction if I open up to you. My
plea therefore is that you take me as one who trusts you and help me
keep this matter between you and I only, whether you want to do
business with me or not.
There was this seasoned contractor name (withheld) who had an unpaid
contract balance of Euro 9,800,000.00.for supply and installation of
Industrial Equipment to our Industry who died a month after the
completion of the contract project without any registered business
partner in his file. The deceased, a Thai national, died as the result
of a heart-related condition on March 12th 2005. His heart condition
was due to the death of all the members of his family in the tsunami
disaster on the 26th December 2004 in Sumatra Indonesia.
For instance, I have the capacity to move the sum of (Euro
9,800,000.00) to your account in any part of the world provided you
and I agree on an equitable sharing formula between both of us on
successful transfer of the funds to your account.
I would like to use my position in the office to recommend you as the
business partner to a deceased contractor so that you can receive the
fund for our own benefits.
If you are interested, please let me have your telephone number and
full names to enable me to give you comprehensive details on what we
are to do to get this transaction concluded. I look forward for your
quick response.
Yours Faithfully,
Mr. Gilbert GuiMinistry of Mines & Energy, Cambodia.
Phnom Penh.
