USD ($6,250,000.00) left in one of the private security company in ACCRA he used my name as his only Son for the next of Kin in depositing of the box. He instructed me to move immediately with the documents to a neighboring country to seek asylum. I moved to the Republic of Mali where I spent some time before finally moving to Ghana with the help of United Nation Agency.
Meanwhile I have located the Security Company, and have also discussed the possibilities of clearing the Trunk Box out from their custody. My father instructed that I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where i will invest the Money in any good lucrative business of my choice as soon as the deposited Box is out from the Security Company, I am honorably seeking your assistance in the following ways:.
