IVORY COAST.
My Beloved,
I carefully considered sending you this mail, after series of discussions with my son concerning going into partnership business with you. However, this is an urgent and passionate plea for your assistance and
help, because of my present predicaments. So I would like you to carefully consider this mail and treat it as very confidential for us to achieve the success of it.
I am Julliet Prest Amakri the wife to Dr Philip Amakri the former director general of Sierra-leone Gold and Diamond Corporation who was assasinated by the rebels loyal to Fodday Sankoh the (R U F) leader; I managed to escape my country with my son Jeff , with the documents covering a deposit made by my late husband in a Private safe Deposit Company in ABIDJAN the economic Capital of Ivory Coast. Those documents revealed that my late husband had deposited the sum of: twelve milion, four hundred United States (US$12.4M).
This money was meant for his participation in a joint fishing business with his partners who turned out funny while he was dicussing the terms in Abidjan with them. So because he could not buy the idea of the partnership with them, he then deciced to lodge the money with a private safe deposit there. On getting down to Sierra Leon his partners got angry with him for his refusal to put in his money in business and he was assassinated in cold blood.
However, before his death in a private hospital, my husband had managed to secretly inform me that he had buried in his private room a small metal box which contained the documents coverring this depost and advised me to escape immediately to Abidjan in the event of his death and there look for a foreigner who would help me and my child to retrieve the box containing this fund from the private trust and security company. He told me that the assistance of a foreigner is necessary because he registered the consignment as family valuables and artifats belonging to his foreign partner.
And because the official of the trust company does not know the true content of of the box, he told me that the foreigner would assume absolute athourity over the consignment for easy retrieval from the company.
I am presently in Abidjan, where we are residing as refugee with my son in the United Nations Refugee Camp here in Abidjan. The deposit documents issued to my late husband at the time of the depost are here with me as I found them in the small metal box and 'am ready to forward them for you approval on request. So all am asking from you is to assist me by coming over to Abidjan Cote d' Ivoire, to help me re- claim these box containig the money from the security company for on-ward investment in your country as directed by my late husband.
Looking forward to hearing from you soonest;
Thanks for your kind audience and assistance.
Your's faithfully,
MRS JULLIET PREST AMAKRI.
