no risk in setting it up. if the money doesn't come in , you lose nothing,, afterwards howver they use all the
info you provide to try to defraud other people , saying , see , the govt of the maldives is our client and for only
250 k , we can get you a piece of the action. there is a treasury fraud site , at the us treasury web page, . very
similar deals.

Jeffrey,
Need your advice.
My finance minister is telling me that he has an anonymous funds manager who is willing to deposit 4 billion
dollars in Maldives and that they are willing to lend a percentage of that in exchange for government
promissory notes. The 4 billion would be deposited in the Central Bank. But they want us to set up a special
purpose vehicle, a construction company fully owned by the government to receive the loan. Such a company
can only be set up under a presidential decree.
I am also told that the funds manager would be charging Maldives upfront a certain percentage of the amount
lent.
I don't feel I have enough information on this. I don't know who is this funds manager. They always want the
finance minister to meet them in Bangkok or some place outside. Why would anyone want to deposit such a
large amount here when we don't have a credit rating and public debt is so high. I feel very uncomfortable
about this.
What do you think I should do. I am very uncomfortable. In addition to the finance minister, a leading
politician and leader of the coalition parliamentary group is behind it. He could be my leading contender for
presidency.
Does this sound all ridiculous to you. I have a strange feeling about this whole thing.
Best regards
Waheed
