Subject: CONFIDENTIAL
Attn: Director,
Dear,
Warm Greetings,
My name is Kenneth Williams, from FREETOWN in Republic of Sierra Leone.I am contacting you to seek your good assistance to transfer and invest (USD$8,000.000.00) MILLION DOLLARS belonging to my late father which is deposited in a bank here.
Regrettably, my father was captured and murdered along with half brother in cool blood during a mid-night rebel shoot-out when our official residence in Freetown, My mother sustained very several bullet injuries which resulted to her untimely and painful death in a private hospital here in Ivory Coast. Now I am alone here with my little sister in a totally strange country without parents, relatives or anybody to care for us at our tender ages.
Before our mother died, she told us that our father deposited some money which he made from diamond sales and contracts at this bank here in Ivory Coast and that we should pray and find a trustworthy foreign
business partner who would help us to transfer and invest this money in profitable business venture.
I have gone to the bank to make inquires about this money and I spoke with the director of International remittance who assured me that the everything is intact and promised to help me transfer this money to my foreign partners bank account as soon as I provide my partners foreign bank account for them. However, the director is very concerned because of my age, I am 21years and as such promised to help me and he would like to speak with my partner to ensure that this money is invested wisely in only profitable business because of his personal interest and sympathy for me.
If you are willing and serious to assist us, please let us know immediately and provide us with your full names and telephone numbers for easy communication. Please note that I can only offer you 25% of the total
money as compensation for your assistance in accordance with my mother’s advice because you would also get a school for me and my little sister so that we can finish our college education.
I am hoping to hear your urgent response so that I can not look for another foreign partner.
Thank you and May God bless you and your dear family.
Yours sincerely,
Kenneth and Juliet Williams
