Greetings,
CONFIDENTIAL NOTICE
I am pleased to send my compliments to you. I know that this Letter
will definitely come to you as a surprise but please hear me out; I Actually
came about your contact through the teachers/business directory as i was searching
for a reliable,trustworthy and confidential individual who can be of
aide/assistance to me.i hope my medium of contact to you will not in
any way contravane your ethics of better judgement. let me first introduce my
humble self and identity.
I am James P. Kamara the only (adopted) son of late former Director of
finance,Chief Vincent Paul Kamara of Sierra-Leone diamond and mining
corporation. I must confess that my agitation is real, and my words is
my bond in this proposal. since the death of my father, his immediate
family(my supposed uncles) are trying to terminate my life because of their sheer
wickedness and jealousy because my late father "WILLED" all his wealth/
aquisitions to my favour as the only son but they are not happy about
this because i am an adopted child so they now see me as an outcast who
should not be entitled to benefit any reasonable thing in the family. now
before my fathers death he deposited some funds amounting to $9m( nine million
dollars) to a local bank here in abidjan where i am presently residing
on asylum, because he could not safe keep such amount in our countrys bank
because of his work status in the government . now his personal
attorney has given me a legal copy of my fathers "WILL" and the copy of the
certificate of deposit issued to him by the Bank on the day he made the deposit and
some other vital documents which my father left in his custody for safety as
his lawyer before he died.
With the help of our gardner who divuldged the evil plans of my uncles
to me i managed to escaped from my country home and now residing under asylum
here in Cote D'Ivoire so as to find a way to transfer this money my father
deposited here and start a new livelihood.it is on this note that I am
contacting you, and all I need from you is for you to stand as my late
father's business associate and foreign partner who wants to assist me
invest this funds in your country.Also you will be required to provide
me with a safe offshore account where the fund will be lodged into after
you must have claimed it from the Finance house then we will make an
arrangement how i will come over to your country.
I am compensating you with 15 % of the total money amount for your
assistance and trust, now all my hope is banked on you and I really
want to invest this money in your country,where their is stability of
Government,political and economic welfare.
please i beg you with the name of God to make this transaction
confidential so that my uncles will not know that i am here and start coming for me
again though i need to leave here as soon as possible because it is not all
that safe for me here. this money is my only hope of survival and starting a
new live so please dont let men down. do get back to me via my private
email -(jamespaul4real@yahoo.com) immediately after you must have gone through
my message and please make it urgent.
Please Try and negotiate for me some profitable blue chip investment
opportunities which is risk free where I can invest with this money
when it is transferred to your account. Personally I am interested in estate
management and hotel business, please advise me.Also you have to
promise me that you will not betray me or sit on these funds once they arrive into
your care and also to be my guardian considering my age, and situation . i
will forward to you all informations/documents and identification in due
course for you not to have any doubt in mind in helping me.
