Hello Friend,
I wrote this letter as confidential one to you, please
kindly read it carefully and send a reply to me.
My name is Mrs.Rodah Bekusi, former director of
finance in the campaign team of Ex. President D Ratsiraka,of Republic of
Madagascar, an island in the Indian ocean. I worked with him for years until
he was ousted with violent protest by the opposition, and he went into exile
in France. This protest erupted during the election period, it was bloody
that several people died including my husband.
Since the opposition took power in Feb 2001, many of us who served in the
regime of the former president have been subjected to several intimidation
and detentions, as am writing you now we have not totally regained our freedom.
I have one thing that disturbs me. In the last days of the ex-president
he took all the monies for the election along with him to exile. The one
in my custody was properly hidden by myself, and I told him (the ex president)
that it was gutted by fire in my office set by mobs of the opposition. Truely
the office was razed down beyond recognition by fire, it is a fact he knows
therefore no questions to answer.
Immediately he left and the tensed atmophere beclouding our nation there
was rush of foreign nationals leaving our country with their families and
belongings for safety,under that cover I was able to send out the amount
left in my custody to a country in europe through cargo, the consignment
was disguised as personal effect. The amount involved is ( $16,000,000=)
sixteen million dollars cash. I
have contacted the company and they aknowledge receipt of the consignment
they have also informed me to come forward for collection. I did not inform
them that my freedom in mycountry is not total. I am not permitted yet to
travel out of my country. I need somebody, who understands my situation
to travel to the country in europe where the consignment was sent, with
the informations I will pass on to him, to stand as my partner/beneficiary
and took delivery of the consignment and lodge it into his account
for safety.
I write this letter to you, to seek your assistance in this issue, we shall
discuss other informations as soon as you declare interest to assist me.
All required information will be passed to you including the company name
and the name of the country where the consignment is. If you have any question
pls ask me. Expecting your reply soonest.
Also treat as Highly Confidential.
