Dear sir and/or madame,

Salutations, I am GRIMHELM WORMTONGUE, The son of late Counsellor Gríma
Wormtongue of the Kingdom of Rohan.

My father was Chief Counsellor [equivalent to Prime Minister] to late
lamented king Théoden of Rohan. In his position my father altogether
legally and correctly acquired significant assets throughout Rohan in
order to protect the Kingdom from enemy forces within and without.

In the course of lamentable events succeeding, my father was illegally
deprived of office and expelled from the Kingdom.  Before this he had
with foresight already entirely legally deposited the sum of
M.500,000,000,000 in gold with the Bank of Gondor (Minas Tirith).
While in exile in the north he was assaulted and murdered by a band of
northern pigmies.  His family was obliged to seek refuge in northern
Dunland among some of our sympathisers.

My father left to me all documents necessary to retrieve the sum of
gold aforesaid from the Bank of Gondor (Minas Tirith).  However, in the
current political circumstances my solicitor believes it unwise for me
to attempt to make the trip from Dunland to Minas Tirith, and has
recommended that I seek a trustworthy foreign business partner into
whose account this money could be tranferred.  This appears to be the
best option as we are unable to open an account in Dunland.  Therefore
we are seeking your trustworthy assistance and coopoeration.

You will provide information about your account that will enable a
deposit to be made in your name.  I will contact the Bank of Gondor
(Minas Tirith) and inform them that the money is to be placed into your
account.  Upon completion of the transaction your share of the proceeds
will be 15% net following deduction of all transfer fees, that is M.
75,000,000,000.  If the transaction goes well we also look forward to
maintaining you as a profitable business partner for future ventures.

It goes without saying that I can expect your complete confidence and
secrecy in keeping this matter under wraps prefatory to completion.

Please reach me at my email address: mbrandybuck at buckland.net

Thank you and ERU bless.

MR, GRIMHELM WORMTONGUE.
