At Home with John and Debbie

I received an email from Diane Abbott. Yes, that Diane Abbott. The MP. It seems a bit shady. She seemed so principled when I saw her on telly…

Dear Friend,

I am Diane Abbott. Elected to the House of Commons when I was elected in the
1987 General Election; representing the London Constituency of Hackney North
and Stoke Newington, I was Britain’s first Black woman MP. Under Her Majesty,
Queen Elizabeth here in UK , served on the Treasury Select Committee of the
House of Commons which is a committee that deals with business and finance
matters.

I got your contact info in your country’s national directory. Now, kindly
allow me introduce a project that has to do with charity in your country and
neighbouring countries around you.

What is your opinion to an offer to receive charity investment funds in cash?

The said funds amount to Fourteen Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars (US)
which will be made available to you, in this same state. The funds are
strictly intended for the purpose of the rehabilitation of charity
organizations in your country, through you but will be initiated and
supervised by my lawyer.

This transaction will result to you being paid a commission of 15% of the
investment capital and the balance, distributed to charity organizations of
your choice or reinvested and the net income, used for rehabilitating charity
organization in and around your country through your agency annually for the
period of five years or a little more.

You must understand that I desire absolute confidentiality and professionalism
in the handling of this project. For security reasons as regards my
reputation, I will not be able to communicate regularly with you; but my
lawyer will take up the processing on my behalf and get these funds processed
and released to you without any delay.

I don’t plan on benefiting anything from this project, but will be absolutely
fulfilled, if and only if you will remain sincere to me on the handling of
this project with utmost sincerity and confidentiality; and eventually utilize
the funds for the purpose which I have explained to you above.

Please respond urgently if you are interested, so I can equip you with the
necessary details, along side my attorney’s contact information, so as to
commence the transaction properly; on the other hand, if you are not, please
let your intentions be known or better still, Kindly relent from replying this
email.

You could get personal info. on me via the Parliament sites or on my official
website, but do not try to contact me via any personal information you may lay
your hands upon on the internet as almost all my contact info are connected to
the British House of Parliament data base except the ones I personally sent to
you; as I don’t want our effort, jeopardized.

If you receive a version of this email, which claims to be from Diane Abbott
and may mention a “charitable” or “profitable project”, ignore immediately as
it is not from me nor anyone connected to me.

Kindly send your response to this E-mail:
dianeabbott1885@yahoo.ie
Any message you receive in my name without this email address is not from me.

Sincerely.
Diane Abbott MP
House of Commons
London
