Dear Stella Sigcau.

Thank you for your email.

I am very interested in your proposition as I am always looking for
further investment opportunities. However unless you are able to come to
meet with me in Norway then you will have to provide me with some
guaranteed proof of identity before I am prepared to proceed any further.

I am sorry if I appear rude to you, this is not my intention, but when
it comes to matters of serious business I do not have time for niceties.
I am by nature a friendly and generous man, but where business is
involved you will find me deliberate and serious.

First a little information about myself and my company. My name is Hugh
Jass and I have been working in travel/tourist industry for nearly 35
years. My company is called XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. I own several travel
offices spread all around the world and presently our annual profits are
around �8.4 million euro per year, and I employ just over 700 workers
in 12 different countries. I am always on the lookout for persons able
to setup new offices and filial in other countries.

In fact this year is a very special year for us as this is my business's
25th birthday. On 24th November 2004 my company celebrates 25 years in
business.

To return to your proposition. As I have indicated, I am very interested
in your proposition, but before I would be willing to proceed or give
out any private information I will require that you are able to send be
some definite proof of your identity on some manner that cannot be faked.
A passport or other ID will not be acceptable, as we have previously
had some dubious people contacting us to send us false information and
passport details, so I am afraid that such identification cannot be
accepted.

I am happy to help you financially in this respect if needed as being
experience in business I do know that transfers of such large amounts of
money may require substantial processing fees, but first you will have
to prove your identity to me. I am afraid that without proof of your
identity I will be unwilling to proceed. My terms above are absolutely
non negotiable. I do apologise if this offends you but I have to be
extremely careful when dealing with such large amounts of money and with
people I have never met. I am a very wealthy man, and sadly some people
try to take advantage of this fact.

Again, I urge you to read the above carefully before replying to this
email. I do not want to appear rude but being such a busy person I
cannot afford to have my time wasted by people who do not read my emails
correctly.

Please call the phone number below only in an urgency. If I am not in
office, it is because I am away travelling.

Thank you again for your email.

Best regards

Manging director/CEO

Dear Hugh Jass,

Thanks for taking time off your busy schedule to drop me a few lines in
response to my proposal. This is appreciated especially the candor with
which you expressed your feelings.

Your capability to expedite and successfully execute this project is not
in doubt and I will very much like to do business with you. I do not
quarrel with your wanting a proof of my identity as I would also request
for yours since my very busy schedule will not allow me to travel out
of the country.

So as not to waste our both valuable time, I will suggest you get in
touch as soon as possible with how we can both prove our identities as
you said our passports is not acceptable.

Once again, thanks for your time and interest as I look forward to a
fruitful business relationship.

Best wishes,
Stella Sigcau.

Hi Stella

It's monday morning, I'm having extreme hangover (yea, been drinking
through whole weekend with some important customers). I'm in no mood to
argue. What I need is a large and clear picture of you with a sigh or a
banner with my name on it. It has to be large and clear so there are no
doubts. I cannot proceed with this deal without such picture.

Hugh

Hi Stella

How are the pictures going? Are done yet, or what? We don't have that
much time. We need to move ahead with this transaction or someone else
will get this money.

Write me, time IS money.

Hi Stella

Thank you so much for the pictures, but I am really sorry to reject them.
Your passport seems fine, they both are nice, big and clear but... you
should write MY NAME not yours.

Please try again. This time with MY NAME.

Yours
Aylick Balls

Hi Stella.

I am all ready and still waiting for your pictures. Do we have this deal or not?

Yours

Hugh

And then.... nothing. Gone. Notice Stellas age. She's like 67 years old, yet doesn't look like that at all.

You do, of course, have her website as well? Laughing

I baited her for awhile. She tends to vanish very fast. However, you can get her back on the hook easily enough.

Isn't it amazing how the typeface that her name and address are printed are different from the country name and passport expiration date?

Jeez Stella, if you are going to photoshop your passport, at least do all of the text! Very Happy
