Subject: DEAR CONFIDANTDear Confidant,
My name is Mr. KIM CHUNG a citizen of North Korea and I would like you to guide me through the most viable investment opportunities in your Country. Alternatively, I can invest in your line of business perhaps if it's viable.
I am one of the defectors from the North and I am currently residing(Refugee Camp) in South Korea. I have been in this country for sometime after defecting from the North, I was into currency exchange business and I was always traveling to other parts of Asia and Europe and during that period, I was able to move out my funds and deposit it in a financial institution in Europe.
I want to invest this funds in your country with your help and advice because we are being treated as foreigners here and watched because the Korean government believe we are a security threat, A lot of defectors now go on to Canada or the United States and some parts of Europe to live. For more details, please see the followingwebsites: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1181380/posts
I want you to send me a complete breakdown of the investment opportunities in your country and also let me know what exactly I need to do to enable you invest the funds for me in your country.
If interested,on my freedom, I will then come over to your country after you receive the funds and work out the investment plans with you. After I hear from you and find out the best investment business you can introduce to me, I will tell you how much is involved.
If you are interested kindly forward your reply to this email address:
