I am the Executive Assistant to Mr. Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky who is the President/CEO of the Yukos Oil Corporation Russian Largest Oil Corporation, with branch offices worldwide. Mr. Mikhail B. Khodorkovsky who was considered as the most powerful of the Russian business oligarchs, and in the year 2002, he was named the 16th wealthiest man in the world.
As the EA to Mr.
Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky, some documents for $150 Million US Dollars was handed over to me for the payment of a foreign contractor. Already Mr.
Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky has released this funds $150 Million U. Dollars to Yukos Oil Corporation Account with the Paying Bank in Hong Kong from where the final wire transfer is expected to be effected. While I was on the process of transferring the funds, Mr.
Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky was arrested on the 25th of October, 2003 and was later prosecuted and sentenced to 9 years in prison on the 31st of May, 2005 on charges of massive fraud and tax evasion.

The Russian government has filed new charges against Mr.
Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky with an aim of keeping him in prison indefinitely. A wide variety of local & foreign politicians, lawyers and journalists considers the process leading to the imprisonment of Mr. Khodorkovsky to be politically motivate. Mr. Khodorkovsky involvement and financial support for the opposition political party in Russia posed the greatest challenge ever to Vladimir V. Putin who happens to be the current Prime Minister of Russia and was formerly president from 2000 to May 7, 2008. It is widely believed that Vladimir V. Putin, and the many officials he placed in power during his presidency, will continue to exert significant influence on the government and politics of Russia for many years to come.
Therefore, on behalf of Mr. Mikhail Khodorkovsky, I solicit your help so you can stand as the foreign contractor or beneficiary of the said funds after which we can reprofile all documents in your favour which would be forwarded to the Paying Bank in Hong Kong for the wire transfer of $150 Million U.S Dollars from the Yukos Oil Corporation Account into your nominated bank account.

Note that you will be entitled to 15% share of the total funds as your compensation for your assistance. I consequently request your maximum assistance and approvals to facilitate the transfer of the $150 Million US Dollars from the Paying Bank in Hong Kong, where these huge funds were deposited.
