Subject: RE: Urgent respond
Assistance Please
Dear Sir/ Madam
With respect and humility, I am writing this letter to solicit for your
assistance; though it looks strange hence we don't know each other.
I am MORGAN KUMBA, a sierra Leona from the diamond rich district of Sierra Leone.
I am the first son to former special adviser of the then president Major Johnny
Paul Koroma. During the war between our forces led by the Ex-Head of State,
Major Johnny Koroma and the West African Allied Forces (ECOMOG) my country
relied heavily on foreign earnings generated from diamond trade. This money was
personally kept by the then President, Major Johnny Paul Koroma since our
banking system had collapsed during the war. However, as the war progressed, it
became apparent that we were going to loose the war to the superior and better
armed West African Allied Forces (ECOMOG). At this point, the key officers of
the administration started making frantic efforts on how to leave benin cotonou
safely thereby sharing the proceeds/money from this diamond trade.
Before we went on exile, he deposited the sum of $19.5 000,000.00 million
United States Dollars in cash with a security company in the Republic of benin
Africa (cotonou). This funds/consignment is presently deposited with this
aforementioned security company for safekeeping and for investment purpose.
However the actual contents was not disclosed to (Security Group) rather
disclosed as families treasures, Since his death on exile has further delegated
me to source for a reliable individual first for the claim/transfer of this
funds in benin cotonou and as well build a long lasting business relationship.
We do not want to invest here in Africa due to volatile and sensitive status of
this region and to avoid Sierra Leone new government not to know about this
fund.
As an international partner we genuinely solicit that you kindly assist us to
transfer this funds to your country through your personal or company's bank
account for safekeeping pending our arrival in your country for onward
investments, which we shall rely on you heavily to help us materialize. I got
your address and other details from the International Chamber of Commerce here
in benin cotonou
I must stress here that there is no risks involved in this transaction since we
have mapped out a hitch free and smooth transfer plans that would be concluded
within the shortest period of time after receiving your approval. However, if
you accept to assist us, we have resolved to offer you 30% of the total amount
of this fund for your assistance while 70% for us. Our funds will be for
investment in your country or anywhere you suggest.
Apparently upon your response, Further discussion will commence as soon as I
hear from you, but do not forget the absolute confidentiality and mutual trust
entailed in this transaction. Contact me on My Direct mail as stated
above for immediate conclusion on this transaction.
