Subject: Clarifications
Good afternoon Mr. Stoll,
Since our last communication our CEO at Freeport Medical Centre Dr. Dass, has communicated with the President Mr. Shinya Suzuki giving him an insight into what transpired
With our negotiations and order that has been placed with your company.
As you are aware a large amount of time and effort has gone into our business relationship and it will be a big loss to both our companies if this relationship does not materialized from this.
Dr. Dass has requested your President to contact him on how we can proceed forward, he awaits his call.
Dr. Dass will appreciate if you can discuss with your management team and inform us of the following ;
1. How both companies can move forward to finalize a contract and start business, remember our main interest is Dialyzers, Blood Lines and Fistula Needles.
2. If you can kindly advise which Sales Representative that can communicate with us regarding same
3. If you can advise a status regarding your investigation.
Please note should you require any information from our end we are more than willing to assist.
I have attached Invoice, Purchase Order a copy of negotiating terms on contract, a copy of the wire transfer for your review.
I have also attached an email received on the 11-02-15 where we got instruction to start sending mails to Mr. Chen Yahoo email account.
Regarding the wire transfer the money was first transferred to the Intermediary bank in the USA as seen on attached transfer slip however we were then given instructions to
Have same transferred to the Government Savings Bank.
Please note the situation which transpired with both our companies is disturbing as an impersonator attempted to rip-off our company funds, by falsifying documents from Asahi Kasei America.
I was baffle at first because I did liaise with Mr. Chen via phone on a regular basis within the period 11- 02-15 to 04-03-15 regarding queries and clarifications etc.
Apparently the impersonator was sending Mr. Chen these queries from a “Yahoo” account which does not exist as Dr. Dass, Mr. Babwah and myself have a domain provider and at no point used Yahoo.
Thankfully we were able to pick up on this before the money was released into the impersonator account.
We are humbly asking Asahi Kasei Pharma for us to move past this.
We took pride in placing an order with a reputable company as yours even to become a distributor we have worked hard to meet at a mutual point, presently finalizing the agreement and confirming samples meet our requirements which Mr. Chen can confirm.
What transpired is no fault of ours and we are still eager to become a distributor and start a business relationship, could you kindly contact us regarding same.
Feel free to contact us should you require any information,
Thanking you in advance,
