Subject: RE: Information From A Good Friend
Hello Dear
My name is Mr. Larry Hunter i work with American Embassy here in Nigeria,
We have been getting reports how Nigerians have been scamming Americans,
Europeans and Asian their hard earn money just because they are trying to
get their contract,lottery, compensation and inherited fund.
I did not know exactly what was really happening until one Mrs Rita
Shirley came down to Nigeria and visited us in our office, after narrating
her story and how she have spent over $48,000 and nothing was done rather
they keep asking her for more money which made her came down to Nigeria. I
was delegated to follow her to the international Monetary fund(IMF) AND
Ministry of Finance, as am writing to you now she is back in the America
and investing her money because we achieved it within 73hours.
Am contacting you because i saw your name and information at the
international monetary fund(IMF) and they have been waiting for you to
contact them for them to complete your transfer which they started some
TIME AGO.
they said that you have been dealing with the wrong people which has
delayed your transfer. I want to inform you that it did not cost Mrs. Rita
Shirley a cent to get her money transferred to her account, the only money
she spent here was only $130 which is the money she paid to the lawyer to
her help her get the Affidavit of claim that will give the bank authority
to transfer the money directly to her account their in the states.
I want to help you the way i helped Mrs. Rita but NOTE that am not doing
it as official duty so you can only get to me and let me know if you want
my help or not.
Your faithfully
Mr. Larry Hunter
