Need Money? Read!

[iago]

Attn:
My name is iago, a complete citizen of Canada, widow
to the late former minister of finance in Canada who was a victim of the
terrorist attack against the against the country by the Abu sayyaf
movement in the southern luxury beach region on the 11th April 2002 that
rendered many people of different nationals dead.I inherited a total sum of
12 million dollars from my late
husband, This money which is concealed in a metallic trunk box is
deposited with a security and finance company in Cote d' ivoire under a
secret arrangement as a family treasure.This means that the security
company does not know the content of this box that was shipped from the
Canada to Cote d' ivoire under a
diplomatic coverage. 


My main purpose of sending your this mail is because of the way I found
you and perhaps trustworthy to give this priority of shipping this box of
money to any address that you think is very secure and safe in your
country with your percentage of  which we shall chat on soon.There is need for urgent action because the consignment is accruing charges per day as demurrage to the security company for safekeeping couple  with the resent attempt of coup plot last july that has distracted attention of the government and the security delegates on me. This is the contact of the company in Cote d'
ivoire for you to call themand give them your address for the immediate shipment of the box today.  I will send you the Authorization Certificate to call them in my next post which is the Certificate of deposit that they gave me on the very day when the box of money was deposited under their company.

I give thanks immensely for the co-operation as I look forward to your
urgent response .

Obviously it is.  I posted a recent 419-style scam and changed her name to "iago" and "Nigeria" to "Canada".  The only problem is that it mentions that I have a husband :-o

That's true.  Because "me" is in the object of the sentence and not the subject, it should be "me".
