> Salutations, I am GRIMHELM WORMTONGUE, The son of late Counsellor Gríma

> 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 pygmies. 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.
