Subject: BUSINESS OFFER
Attn: The President/Ceo
My name is Mr. MENSAH SISI. I hail from the Federal Republic of Ghana,
41 years, married with three children. I am the Diretor of Global
Security & Finance Services Limited, Ghana. I got the information
concerning you from the Internet and after due consideration, I decided
to contact you believing that by the Grace of God, that you will not
disappoint me over this deal.
I have been working with this company for over fifteen years. Within
this period, I have watched with meticulous precision how African Heads
of State and Government functionaries have been using Global Security &
Finance Ltd to move sums of money USD, Pounds Sterling, French Francs
(cash) to their foreign partners. They bring in these consignments of
cash and secretly declare the contents as jewelries, gold, diamonds,
precious stones, family treasures, and documents etc.
Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire (dead), Gen. Sanni Abacha of Nigeria
(dead),Fode Sankoy of Sierra Leone, Babangida of Nigeria, Felix Houphet
Boigny of Cote d"Ivoire (dead), Kanan Bedie of Cote d"Ivoire (Abidjan)
etc. All these people have many consignments deposited with my office.
Their foreign partners, friends and relatives are claiming most of
these consignments. A lot of them are lying here unclaimed for as much
as eight years. Nobody will ever come for them because in most cases,
the Certificate of Deposit are never available to anybody except the
depositors or me since most of them are dead. I have through the
instrumentality of Global Security & Finance re-deposited all these
unclaimed and overstayed consignment into the Vault Facility of a
reputable Security Company in Europe. Since the inception of the year
2000, our company's management has changed the procedure of claims of
consignment, as soon as you are able to produce the secret information
as contained in the secret file of any consignment, it will bereleased
to you upon demand.
I have finalized every arrangement for you to claim consignment No.
1401, 1402 containing $35.7 Million. I will supply you with all the
information and documents that will facilitate your easy claim of the
consignment. Upon your positive reply of this letter, I will furnish
you with further details and information regarding the modus operandi
for the execution of the transaction. This business is risk free as I
have taken necessary preventive measures. (The mode of sharing will be
50-50), you can reach me by email and I will direct you on what to do
and also
l like like you to furnish me with your full name and your confidential
phone and fax number(s) for easy reach.
Please Expedite action.
Yours faithfully,
MR. MENSAH SISI
