Dear Friend,

Sincere apologies for contacting you without first, seeking your
permission. I am Ms. Susan Patrick (Chief Auditor: George & Harding
Ltd).

I got your contact information from the internet during my search for a
foreign partner who will assist me in carrying out this urgent
transaction.
I have decided to seek a confidential co-operation with you in the
execution of this deal described Hereunder for our benefit and hope you
will keep it as a top secret because of the nature of this transaction.
With strong faith, that you will keep this information confidential, I
contact you through this medium for a transaction/business of this
magnitude.

Within the corporation where I work as the "Chief Auditor" and with the
cooperation of my colleague Mrs. Edna Willington, who is the chief
accountant to the corporation, we have access to overdue payment bills
totalling Six Million, Nine Hundred Thousand British Pounds (6.9m GBP)
which is in our corporate account that we want to transfer abroad with
your
assistance and cooperation to receive the said fund on our behalf.
More so, we are handicapped in the circumstances, as me and my
colleague
cannot afford the facility to operate offshore account. Hence your
importance in the whole transaction. Please, note that this transaction
is
100% risk-free as all functions required of the company will be managed
and
approved by me.

If you are interested, please, contact me through my private email:

As soon as I hear from you, I will furnish you with complete
information
regarding this confidential transaction.

I await your prompt response.

Sincerely,

Ms Susan Patrick
(Chief Auditor)
George & Harding Ltd
