Re: URGENT REPLY NEEDED

Dear Sir,

Praise to you in the Lord Jesus Christ and all of his followers. Kindly allow me the modesty of introducing myself. My name is GEORGE GEIAMBALA, and I am the crown Prince of the Republic of Zaire. I seek your help with an investment.

My father recently passed away, and left me a measurable sum of $ 3,000,000 (THREE MILLION) Dollars U.S. Before he died, he advised me to invest the money in a bank in your country. Due to social instability in my own country, I am seeking a partner to invest the money for me. I would very much like to place this sum in your bank account. If you would send me your bank information and routing numbers, I will have all the documents necessary, and complete this financial transaction, which is 100% risk free. Once I am able to place this SUM in your account, for your assistance during this transfer I will extend to you a payment of 20% or OVER $600,000 (SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND) dollars.

Please email me back at your latest convenience. I don’t get many emails, especially since my poor father passed away, and so I would definitely appreciate hearing from you. Sometimes, I think I’ll hear his voice in the hallway, or in the street, but when I turn and look, he isn’t there, and it’s someone else or the movement of the wind playing tricks on me. It’s taken me a long, long time to realize that the man I loved and revered is gone. And he’s left me an inordinate amount of money. That I’d like to give to you, of course.

How is America? Is it fun? I have access to the internet, so I know all about your culture. I just read on Britney’s website that she’s pregnant– isn’t that freaky? I wonder what her and Federline’s kids will look like! What kind of music do you like? I mostly like Franz Ferdinand, but lately I am getting into The Killers as well. I think they are so rad, and totally eighties. Please email me back and tell me what your favorite music is, so I can look it up on Itunes. You can just send it with your bank account information, I would really appreciate it.

So, I guess I’ll let you go. They just opened a new Starbucks across town, and my girlfriend JENNIFER ABIEION keeps nagging me to go. “It’s $4 a cup for coffee!” I tell her, but you know how she needs her frappacinos! Hope everything is well with you. Don’t forget about this bank account thing, OK? Please? I know you’ll be there for me.

Thanks, man. Oh, by the way, did I tell you about this new drug I found, or this free software that’s available? Seriously, I got it from the guy at the office. I’ll forward it to you– seriously, you’ll love it! Peace.

Yours Sincerely,

GEORGE GEIAMBALA

P.S. Please Consider Transaction!
