GREETINGS,
It is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I intend to establish in your country.
Though I have not met with you before but I believe,one has to risk confiding in someone to succeed sometimes in life.
I am JOHN KOFFI 21 YEARS OLD the son of late Mr and Mrs KONE KOFFI . My father was a wealthy Oil Merchant/Contractor and Gold/diamond dealers here in LIBERIA,GHANA AND CORE DIVOIRE who was assasinatedrecently in his appartment by unknown goverment milita
ry dead squad along the side with his business associates claiming that they were supporting and import amunition to the REBELLIONSOLDIER's in the northern part of the country where he originated from.
My father took me so special when he was alive,as I am the only child of the family,my mother died immediately she gave birth to me.Before he (myfather) met his untimely death. On July 2001, he called me and told me that he has the sum of sixteen Milllio
n five hundred thousand US DOLLARS(US$16.500.000)here in SECURITY COMPANY IN ABIDJAN , that he used my name in depositing the money.
l am seeking for a foreign partner that will assist me to retrieve the fund under the deposited company and for immediate transfer to his country for investment purpose such as real estate management or hotelmanagement. Please, I am honorably seeking you
r assistance in the following ways:
