My name is Alexander Hamilton, and I would like to discuss a business opportunity that offers the potential for considerable earnings.
I work for a privately held manufacturing company, which currently purchases a product vital to its processing operations at a price significantly above the manufacturing cost. In my proposed business venture, you would assume the role of stand-in supplier, providing this key material while retaining the same profit margins. My role would be to introduce you to my company as the supplier and to obtain a contract between you and my employer.
I understand that your experience with Mark Urquhart-Webb does not directly relate to my field. However, this venture is more in line with your personal capabilities rather than your professional experience.
I would like to confirm your current phone number 916- 985 4445 x 229. Please send a return email to verify your contact number and to schedule the most convenient time to discuss these possibilities in detail. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
