Dear Sir/ Madam, My name is Benjamin Alpern. I am 58 years old, from Canada, semi retired and presently facing one of the biggest challenges of my life. I am honest, determined and ambitious to a reasonable degree. I am a close cousin of Ruth Alpern and I have worked as a consultant in procurements, supply and logistics mainly on supply contracts to the Far East, Asia and the Middle East. I am in search of a business partner for the purpose of logistics and assistance towards the administration and release of a huge amount of money, (USD 16.1m). Details of origin of funds will be forwarded to highly interested individual. I am willing to offer a very reasonable percentage on this venture for all assistance/logistics. My offer is legitimate and above board I just happen to be one of the Fortunate victims of the Bernard Madoff fraud scandal. Regards, Mr. Benjamin Alpern.
