Greetings,
My name is Major Michael Onel. I am an American soldier, presently in
Afghanistan for the training, advising the Afghan forces and also helping
in stabilizing the country against security challenges. With a very
desperate need for assistance, I have decided to contact you for your kind
assistance to move the sum of (US$38,000,000.00) Thirty eight Million
United States Dollars to you for investment purpose if I can be assured
that my interest will be protected until I complete my service.
Some money in various currencies was discovered in boxes at a farmhouse
during a rescue operation we conducted in one of the attacks by the
terrorists and it was agreed by my colleagues and I that some part of this
money be shared among us. The above figure was given to me as my share, and
to conceal this kind of money became a problem for me, so with the help of
a British doctor working with Red Cross, I was able to get the package out
to a safe location entirely out of trouble spot. he does not know the real
content of the package, and believes that it belongs to a British /American
medical doctor who died in a raid here in Afghanistan, and before giving
up, trusted me to hand over the package to his Family.
I have now found a much secured way of getting the package out of
Afghanistan to you for pick up and I will discuss this with you when I am
sure that you are willing to assist me. I am ready to compensate you with
30% of the $38 million USD for your assistance.
I do not know how long we will remain here, and I have been shot, wounded
and survived two suicide bomb attacks by the special grace of God, this and
other reasons I will mention later has prompted me to reach out for help.
Please contact me as soon as possible with your following details:
Full Name:
Full Address:

God Bless you as I look forward to your positive response.
Truly yours,
Major Michael Onel
