Dear Friend.

My contacting you through this medium is due to the urgency and confidentiality of this message; I want to make you an offer

so that you can assist me.

I resigned as the Egyptian President on the 11th of Feb 2011, please go through this:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12433045

I know very well that the new government will be after all the moneys with me, and as such, I don’t want to lose all. I have

some deposited amount of money In Bank In New York, which I will like you change the ownership to you and have the money

moved immediately to you in your country in Cash (US$56Million) through a high Diplomatic Service.

Once you have received this first part, I will move another to you, but I want you to assure me that you can handle this

easily, as I will take care of all the documentation here and the cost here. What you are to take care of is just the

delivery and handling charges/fee once they have arrived your country.

You are receiving 30% of the total amount, so please urgently reply with your full contact information and as well as a copy

of your ID to assure me that you are not going to run with my money.

Please reply and notify me of your interest with your, Full Name, Your Contact Address, Your direct telephone Number.

I am waiting.

Thank You.

President Hosni Mubarak
