Originally posted by Oedipus Hey. I just got this email. Is this for real and what should I do?? I really need your advice!!Attention CEO/President, I regret any initial embarrassment my letter might cause you, as we have not had any correspondence before this time. My name is Scott Sullivan, former CFO of WorldCom, an international communications company. I got your contact in my search for a reliable and trustworthy partner who l can do business with. I am contacting you in view of the fact that we willbe of great assistance to each other. I currently have in my possession the sum of almost forty million US Dollars (US $36.8 million) cash which I intend to invest, specifically outside countryalthough I do not know where yet. This money came in me through an accounting practice that some unfriendly entities in my government claim to be illegal. This money was paid to me through several large American lending institutions as a finder’s fee for helping them place loans for the now deposed, "President for Life," Bernard Ebbers. Because of the questionable nature in which these loans were prepared, I urgently need to move this money off shore and away from the grasp of the American regulators. Due to my current situation, it has become quite impossible for me to travel internationally andinvest it in any part of the world. Hence this is why I am contacting you as a matter of urgency to help and represent me in collecting the money on my behalf, transporting it to a safe haven and investing it for us. I propose a percentage of 20% of the total sum to you for the expected service assistance from you, 5% mapped out for offsetting minor expenses incurred in the course of this transaction. Please do reply me through the below email address so that I can make available to you all the necessary documents in claiming the money for us. Please do treat this proposal highly confidential while I await your prompt response. I also look forward to a mutually beneficial relationship with you. Yours Sincerely, Scott Sullivan Boca Raton, FL.
