Dear sir.
Good day and top of the other days to you and your family. How is the climate
of your country? I guess splendid, as for me I am just fine for the time
being.
I am John Brume Al-Hassan a Sudanese National, I am the eldest son of Brume
Al-Hassan who was the former adviser to the presidency on finiancial matters
before the civil war in my country.
Last year the zagawa Arab from the North started an ethenic cleansing crusade
against the black population in Sudan,their key targets were black politicians
who they said were occupying major political position in the sudanese government.
many prominent black sudanese politicians were assinated the lucky few were
able to flee abroad to escape the wrath of the rebels;the Janjaweed militia,the
sudan liberation party(SLP)and the justice equality movement(JEM) linked
to senior sudanese opposition polititian Hassan Al-turabi.
On the 13th of july 2004,while returning to khartoum from a political meeting
in Darfur,my father's vehicle was waylayed by the janjaweed militia and
was brutally murdered along with my younger sister.
Sir, we are presently in Accra, Ghana (West Africa) seeking political asylum
as refugee including my family and myself. Sir, I wish to use this medium
to seek your indulgence on how you can assist me to actualize this transaction

My late father, Chief Brume Al-Hassan deposited a huge sum of money with
a bank here in Accra, Ghana. The name of the bank is PRUDENTIAL BANK OF
GHANA, the amount is TWENTY-TWO Million United States Dollars ($22,000,000,).
Myself and my mother have carefully gone to the bank to verify the deposit,
it was confirm to us by the bank that the funds are still there. Sir, we
have suceeded in transfering this funds to a BANK in LONDON through the
help of our family lawyer here in Ghana, as I am sending you this mail now,
our money is in a LONDON BANK NOW.
