DEAR SIR, I HAVE BEEN SUPPLYING SOME INDUSTRIAL RAW MATERIAL CALLED OGBO MONO HERBAL TO BUYERS, SINCE THE PAST 5YRS, WITH THE ASSISTANT OF AN INDIAN BUSINESSMAN, IN A CITY CALLED CHENNAI IN INDIA. THE INDIAN BUSINESSMAN HAS BEEN PLAYING THE ROLE OF A MIDDLEMAN BY RECEIVING THE MONEY FOR THE PURCHASING OF THE PRODUCT AND WE SUPPLY TO THE BUYER UPON THEIR ARRIVAL IN INDIA FOR PAYMENT AND PICK UP. THE BUYERS ALWAYS PAYS SOME PERCENTAGE OFF FRONT. THIS BUSINESS HAS BEEN GOING ON SMOOTHLY AND SUCCESSFUL BETWEEN MYSELF AND THE INDIAN BUSINESSMAN. ONE OF THE BUYER NEED THE PRODUCT URGENTLY AND I AM SO MUCH WORRIED SINCE I COULD NOT REACHED MY SUPPLIER WHO IS MY PARTNER IN INDIA, I NOW CONVINCED THE BUYER ABOUT ANOTHER PRODUCER WHO CAN SUPPLY AT A LESS PRICE AND THE BUYER IS NOW WAITING TO HEAR FROM ME, NOW I HAVE FIND OUT THAT MY PARTNER IS DEAD. THE BUYERS ALWAYS COME TO INDIA TO VERIFY, PAY AND TAKE DELIVERY OF THE MATERIALS , IMMEDIATELY THEY CONFIRM THAT THE PRODUCT IS READY FROM MY PARTNER (THE SUPPLIER) .THE BUYERS PAY FOR THE MATERIALS, IN WHAT EVER FORM OF PAYMENT THE SUPPLIER MAY DEMAND, EITHER IN LOCAL CURRENCY, US DOLLARS, UK POUNDS STERLING ETC. THE LAST SUPPLY WAS $610,000.00 (SIX HUNDRED AND TEN THOUSAND US DOLLARS), THE PURCHASING AMOUNT WAS ABOUT $400,000.00 (FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS) EQUIVALENT INDIAN LOCAL CURRENCY. MY PROPOSAL; I WILL DIRECT YOU WITH ALL THE NECESSARY INFORMATION YOU MAY NEED TO DO THIS BUSINESS SUCCESSFULLY. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TO STAND AS A MIDDLEMAN, BETWEEN THE BUYER AND ME IN YOUR COUNTRY TO ENABLE THE BUYER RELEASE MONEY FOR THE PURCHASE OF THE PRODUCT. THE BUSINESS IS LU CREATIVE WITHOUT ANY RISK. THE QUESTION IS HOW ARE YOU GOING TO CONVINCE ME THAT, I AM GOING TO GET MY COMMISSION IN ANY TRANSACTION YOU DO WITH THE BUYER? IF YOU ASSURE ME OF YOUR RELIABILITY, I WILL COMMUNICATE WITH THE BUYER AND GET BACK TO YOU ENDEAVOR TO PROVIDE ME WITH YOUR DIRECT TELEPHONE NUMBER, CONTACT ADDRESS AND LOCATION IN INDIA, AS THIS WILL HELP ME TO COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY WITH YOU. AWAIT YOUR IMMEDIATE RESPONSE. BEST REGARDS, DR. BOLLOCK
