Subject: My Dear Friend,
My Dear Friend,
I am sorry for the embarrassment this mail might cause to
you, since we have no correspondence before the mail.
I got your contacts from the national chambers of commerce
and industries here in my country during my search for a
trusted, faithful and honest partner, to assist me carryout
this transaction.
First I will start by introducing myself, My name is Lady
Cynthia Bongo, the daughter of the late minister of power
and steel, one of late Dr. Michael C. Bongo.
I and my 24 years old brother are orphans from the Republic
of Liberia.
We are presently residing Cairo in Egypt.
We were amongst the lucky Liberians who benefited airlifted
from the airlifting exercise embarked upon by the United
Nation High Commission on Refugees (U.N.H.C.R.).
My late father until his death was an importer of iron and
steel in Liberia.
Before the war in Liberia, my father was awarded a contract
to supply Steel and Iron Rods valued at US$35.6M (Thirty-
Five Million six hundred thousand Dollars) to the
Department of Works and Housing, in Liberia.
He ordered the steel from U.K, but before the shipment
arrived, the war broke out in Liberia.
Due to the war he redirected the shipment to Cairo Sea Port
for safety.
The war led to destruction of lives and properties, my
father developed heart problem and few days later he gave
up the ghost on the 15th of November, 2003.
Life became very difficult in the camp and I thought it
wise to Approach some officials of the Ministry in my
country (Liberia) and the supply was taken by the
government at a much reduced price, since we are poor and
desperately in need of money.
It took another (11) months in October 21st 2004, for the
payment to be approved, we prayed and fasted and with the
help of God, the payment have been approved by the Finance
Ministry.
A secret revealed to us shows that the government will
deduct a Tax of 40% if the money is paid to us here in
Egypt since we are war refugees. As the eldest child, I
decided that we have to relocate to a foreign country where
we can live without fear of any danger again and also have
our money complete.
I already have informed the ministry that our late father?s
foreign Business partner shall be forwarding an account for
the transfer to be made.
This is basically where we want your assistance, to provide
your bank information's.
The approved amount is US$35.6M (Thirty-Five Million six
hundred thousand US Dollars).
As you may like to know 30% of the total fund will be given
to you for your kind assistant.
Please feel free to send your full contact including your
phone and fax numbers immediately you receive this letter
for more details, the ministry is waiting for us to provide
bank particulars so that the fund can be wired immediately.
As you may want to know, every legal document relating this
transaction is intact, as such its 100% risk free, it's not
government or anybody?s money but mine.
Your kind consideration of this urgency will highly be
appreciated.
Your phone and fax numbers will play a major rule in these
transactions for effective communications, as I do not like
discussing issues like this on internet.
I have as well appointed a lawyer who will overseas this
transaction and make sure all the proceeds are legal
according to the constitution.
please do send your reply to my alternative e-mail address,
to enambe me see your reply soon:
(ladycynthiab@fastermail.com )
I look forward hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Lady Cynthia Bongo
