REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE:
Good Day,
Accept my deepest apology if I have encroached into your privacy by this
unsolicited correspondence. It is coming to you in view of a circumstantial
inevitability. I am a Senior Legal Representative in the Madrid office of
the Afinsa Bienes Tangibles, the World\'s largest Stamp dealer. The Spanish
Public Prosecutor has recently accused the firm of embezzling ?1.75bn from
almost 143,000 investors in a massive pyramid scheme built on what it
considered worthless stamps. This has really generated great controversy as
it is now considered the biggest scam in the entire Spanish history. See
more of the news here:
http://news.ft.com/cms/s/71e7b35a-e112-11da-90ad-0000779e2340.html
Having Represented the Group legally for over Nine years, I see an
unfortunate end to all of us particularly as we were not a party to the said
scam because authority flowed from top to down, and we were always serving
in tune with instructions flowing from above. In the bid to survive, I
intend to transfer the sum of Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars
($9,500,000.00) overseas in an alliance with one of my Honourable colleague
as all we see now is a very bleak future. This forms the subject matter of
this letter.
We have perfected plans to include you as one of the suppliers of raw
materials to our firm with the above sum of money due for transfer over to
you as payment for contracts executed for the Afinsa Group. I am personally
a signatory to Contractor\'s Fund in a Financial Institution here in Spain
hence it will be very easy to have the money transferred overseas in your
names. We will employ every conceivable legal means to ensure we attain a
hitch - free transfer of the Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars
($9,500,000.00) into any account you will nominate outside Spain for the
purpose of receiving the fund.
Please reach me for further details via any of my private emails :(
alfred_fernandez102@live.com ) to enable us discuss on how we will proceed
because we have mapped out a strategy that will enable us transfer the fund
overseas within 7 working days with your cooperation. Thank you for your
urgent attention.
Yours Truly,
Barrister. Alfred Fernandez
