Email #1, from Cameron (scam-baiter):

Hello Alfred,

Thank you for providing such a detailed explanation of the business opportunity and the role you envision for me. It certainly sounds like a lucrative and important venture, especially given the crucial role Echinacea oil (BY127) plays in your production of life-saving drugs.

I am intrigued by the business model and the potential profits are certainly very appealing. The idea of standing as an intermediary and helping to facilitate the supply of such critical raw materials is quite exciting.

Before we proceed further, I would like to gather a bit more information to ensure that everything is set for a smooth operation. Could you please tell me a bit more about the previous supplier and what happened that caused them to stop supplying the oil? It’s important for me to understand all aspects of the supply chain to prevent similar issues.

Additionally, could you provide me with the contact details of the local farmer? It would be beneficial for me to have a preliminary discussion with them to ensure that they can meet the demand and uphold the quality needed for such crucial raw materials.

Regarding the draft MOU and the profit sharing, what terms are you considering? And how are the legalities typically handled in these transactions to ensure that both parties are protected and obligations are clearly set?

Lastly, I assume that there will be some contracts or agreements in place with your company to formalize my role as the local seller. It would be helpful to review these documents as well.

I look forward to your responses and am eager to move forward should all check out.

Best Regards,

Hi Cameron, Thanks for your reply.  I am the Project Manager in Corner Cure Pharmaceutical www.cornercurepharmaceutical. com

 Honestly speaking I was looking for a friend when I found your email and decided to write to you to see if you are interested or not as I couldn't find who I was looking for.

 This is a lucrative business, believe me, once all the processes are done accordingly, we will become rich. The forma supplier made a lot of money while he was alive. Believe me, this is a great opportunity. as soon as we agree. I will guide you on how to follow up with my company and also the local farmer.

 As I explained in my previous emails. You will act as an intermediary between my company and the local farmer. This is because I can't do the business on my own since I still work for the company and I don't want my company to know that I am involved in this and also, I don't want my company to have direct access to the local farmer because they will buy directly from him and there is no way I can make any profit. So, I need an honest person who I can deal with while we share the profits together.

 You will get the product from the local farmer located in Thailand at a cheap price then supply it to my company in the UK at a high price. I will personally guide you through each procedure.

 I will give you the contact information of the local farmer located in Thailand where you will get the required products from and also guide you on how to contact the procurement department of my company to request for supply but we need to agree.

 I need your Full Name, Home or office Address and telephone number to enable commence.

Please get back.

 Alfred

Email #3, from Cameron (scam-baiter):

Hello Alfred,

Thank you for your trust and this detailed follow-up. It’s great to hear from you so promptly, and I must say, your proposal does seem intriguing and potentially very rewarding.

It’s quite a coincidence that you stumbled upon my email while searching for a friend. I am flattered that you thought to approach me for such an important business opportunity.

I appreciate the need for discretion in this deal, especially given your position within Corner Cure Pharmaceutical. It makes sense that you would need an external partner to maintain anonymity and profitability.

Before we proceed, I would love to learn more about the logistics of transacting with someone in Thailand, as I have never done international business to that extent. Are there customs or import regulations that we need? Additionally, could you clarify how the payment and shipping from Thailand to the UK would be managed?

I am also interested in understanding more about the procurement process at your company. How does the procurement department usually handle new suppliers, and what documentation will they require from me as a new intermediary?

Regarding sharing my personal information, it is something I typically reserve until all details of a business proposition are clear, including the legal protection for both parties involved. Could we discuss the protection measures for both our interests? Perhaps drafting a preliminary MOU could be a start.

Please feel free to guide me on how to proceed with contacting the farmer and your procurement department. I am quite eager to understand the entire process in depth before fully committing.

Looking forward to further details, and thank you again for considering me for this collaboration.

Best Regards,

Email #4, from Alfred:

Hi Cameron, 

In regards to your email. We need to act fast because some other company submitted their quote already but their quote is very high so I believe that our quote will be fair, One of the companies quoted $28,200.00 dollars per barrels while the other quoted $25, 500.00 dollars per barrels.

The farmer will completely take care of the logistics process of shipping from Thailand to the UK once you purchase from them. Mr. Wilson, our late supplier, has been dealing with farmers for years before he passed away.

Monday morning I will give you directions on how to contact our procurement department for the supply. But please, this deal must be confidential, otherwise I will lose my job. I don't want my company to know I'm involved in this. That's why I want you to act as an intermediary to deal with my company and the local supplier. So, you can get the products directly from the local supplier and then supply to my company at a high price while we share the profits.
 
I will guide you in every step and how to follow up. As soon as my company gives the go-ahead for the supply, we are made. All I need is your sincerity. This would be a continuous business as soon as my company approves the supply and I wouldn't want you to betray me when you fully have direct access to the director of my company.

Here is the contact information for the farmer.
