His starting email:
Hello,
Thank you for your mail, I just got it now, Im very much appreciative of your assistance, things has not been so easy for us here in Syria, so business men like myself have been moving our money out of the country to other countries where we can invest into other businesses. I also need to give my family a better future.
Please tell me more about any investment opportunity which you and I can venture into, and as we both know, I dont know you in person, so please I need you to assure me of your honesty and trust into this, as this money is all that I have in my life, but it may end up useless if I continue keeping it here, as every passing day is not a sure one.
Tell me more about yourself and what you presently do for a living, I believe this way, we can know more about each other. Here is my number +963312661923, I would have loved to speak with you on phone, but due to the situation here in Syria, the government placed very tight scrutiny on international phone calls, even its almost Impossible to make or receive international calls here from Syria.
I will look forward to receiving your message.
Thank you
Mr. Effendi

After interest is expressed, his 2nd email, the salutation being deleted,
Thank you for your message, and for the investment explanations, I appreciate it, Im impressed with your investment idea, and I hope our relationship gets stronger with time. Speaking about honesty, I always look out for that as well, Im glad we have started well on that note.
Already, I have used a silver trunk box that is normally used in storing medical supplies by the Red Cross to package the money, the box has combination lock so no one can open it, once I confirm your details, I will hurry to the Red Cross center here and hand it to the officials to deliver to you through courier means to your address as family valuable. As long as it carries the Red Cross seal, no one will screen it, this is due to their diplomatic Immunity.
Once the money gets to you, I will leave Syria with my family, so I can get my own part of the money which is 70% while the remaining 30% will be for you. I need to invest in any lucrative business and start life over again. I have also attached my passport copy here. So send me the following details.
1. Full Name
2. Full Address
3. Mobile Phone Number
Also send me a scanned copy of your passport or drivers license copy for better trust between us, so I can know who I am dealing with.
After sending it, the courier company, through the Red Cross will also issue you courier tracking details, so you can keep track of the box online and know when it will get to your address.
Regards
Mr. Mohammad Effendi
