How are you, [Redacted]?

Apart from being a director with Monarch Investment Group, I am also the CEO of UPL & LKH International Group Co., Ltd, Cambodia. Monarch Investment group, of which I am a director, got a contract project of about US$103Million from the Cambodian government in collaboration with a German company Veritas Oil and Gas company to develop part of KOK TANG PREAH SIHANOUK PROVINCE. All arrangements were up and awaiting payment when our German friend and collaborator suddenly died.

Veritas Oil and Gas company a foreign company owned by Mr. Herbert Karven, acted as an expert consultant to Monarch Investment Company in this project. The understanding was an indirect way of moving funds out of Cambodia for foreign investment.

After Herbert Karven's death and having had our payment delayed, we are left with no option than to carry on the arrangement as previously planned by the group but with a change of foreign representative, hence my contact to you. We solicit for you to take over as the expatriate company that Monarch Investment Group consulted in order to have the part payment of USD $29,867,525 (Twenty Nine Million Eight Hundred and Sixty Seven thousand, Five Hundred and Twenty Five Cents) released to us by the Cambodia government. You will take 30% from this payment while keeping 70% will be for us until when needed for our investment purposes in your care. We will attach the project plan and our contract agreement with the Cambodian government for you to go through and understand more of this collaboration after I hear from you.

We are anticipating a yes response from you on this collaboration. With the influence of my other company executive and royal partner and friend, Son Altesse Sisowath Panara Sirivuth the cousin of the current King of Cambodia, everything will go as arranged without any hindrance.
Do get back urgently to me to tell you how we can go about this as the Ministry of Economy and Finance is awaiting payment instructions from Monarch Investment Company. My personal regards as I await your reply. I have attached our IDs which includes my diplomatic passport and photos of the people involved and hope that you can keep this transaction a top secret.

Best Regards,

The email is a classic example of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam with promises of a large sum of money being transferred to the victim. Anyone responding to it will be told that there is a fee/tax/insurance payment to be paid to receive the money. This will be followed by payment after payment until the victim runs out of money or realises that they are being scammed.
