Subject: Dear One,
Dear One,
Permit me to inform you that i am interested to contact you in disclosing everything about me to you I am 22 years old, and the Son of late DR TONY AMAKA, the former chief accountant to the SIERRA-LEONE GOLD/DIAMOND corporation in Kenama District who was assassinated bythe R. U. F rebels during his visit to our village,subsequent to the death of my late beloved father,my mother died one month later as a result of the shock, and before then my mother has already advised me and my sinor brother to look for a foreign partner to transfer this funds to and invests it abroad.
I inherited the total sum of US$30 million from my late beloved father as next of kin to my family.
This money which is concealed in two metallic trunk boxes,
was deposited with a security company in EROUPE for safe
keeping, though the security company officials does not know the real contents of the deposited consignment, because it was lodged in on the day of deposit as containing family valuables (African Art works).belonging to an Eroupe based friend of my late father. It was lodged in as containing African Art Works, in other to avoid raising any eyebrows,just for security purpose.
My late parents succeeded in moving in the two iron trunk boxes, into this country from Sierra-Leone through the help of a Shipping Company's Manager, friend of my late father.
Now that we are in Abidjan and have confirmed the deposit, we now need your assistance to help us move this funds out from the Security Company for investment in your country.
As we can not embark on any investment here in AFRICA based
on it's closeness to our country Sierra Leone, and also
considering the fact that we are notice in the business
world, and as the war is still going on there in our
country.
We want you to locate a valuable and lucrativebusiness, were we can invest our funds for future profit while you remain the general overseer of the investments.Your kind assistance will not be under
estimated as we have resolved in giving to you 20% of the total sum of US$2 million, and 5% of total the sum is set aside for any expenses that will be incurred in course of this transaction, such as phone calls, air tickets, and hotel accommodations.
You are hereby required to visit the security company office as my late father's foriegn partner the, beneficiary of the trunk boxes,for the withdrawal of the consignment as we can send you every document regards the deposit we have recover some relevant documents such as the confirmation of deposit,receipt of part payment for the safe keeping fee and also the photograph of the cash box,regarding to this deposit.
There is need for urgent actions, because as it is the security company's daily demurrage charge is fast accumulating and it is US$30 per day for safe keeping, and the initial payment for the deposit has since expired.
Looking forward to your urgent response.
Your's Sincerely,
Ijeeago Amaka
