Subject: Please I Do Need Your Ass
GOOD DAY,
I WISH TO WRITE YOU THIS PERSONAL LETTER AND IN STRICT CONFIDENCE, I PRAYED AND FASTED FOR YOU WOULD BE KIND ENOUGH TO TREAT AND GIVE IT MAXIMUM ATTENTION IT REQUIRES.
I am contacting you base on this business transaction, because somebody has to be contacted, I know you may wonder why you are chosen or contacted since we do not know each other before, but somebody has to be choosen, in brief introduction.
I, am Tony Richardson the senior son of late Dr. Nat Richardson who was killed by some rebles soldiers in our country on 22nd March 2004 in Free Town, Sierra-Leone,me and my mother Mrs. Florence Richardson inherited the sum of $19, million (Nineteen Million U.S Dollars In Cash) from my father who was The First Executive Minister Of Sierra-Leone before he was killed.
But before the war started he deposited his funds with a bank called Eco Bank Ghana, Treasury Department in Africa and for safekeeping and onward transfer.
But presently i and my mother want you to help us receive this funds as our foreign partner, What we do want you to do for us is to contact the bank and deal with the Eco Bank Ghana directly, to stand for us before the bank as the new beneficiary of this funds.
And I will want you to also know that my mother said that before this fund can be reliase or transfer to you we will have to sign an agreement with my family so that we can trust you and be sure you agree to take 25% of the total funds for your assistance the rest 75% you will help us to invest it in a life time investment with your wise advice in your country.
It may surprise you but it the is truth and no one expect you knew that we are still alive and in Ghana that is why you must keep this as a top secret to yourself alone, because my late father signed agreement that the fund is a contract payment for is foreign business associates and should be released without delay or questions.
Please i do want you to know that my late father was one of the biggest local crude oil sales man in Liberia. I do want you to know that all the legal documents covering this fund are with my mother and every thing is legal according to the International Monetary Fund Laws of money transfer law requirement.
