Dear sir/Madam,
How are you and your family? I hope all is well with you and this message
gets to you in a good health.
I write to inform you about my desire to run and investment partnership
with you for a long and mutual benefit overthere in your Country and to
buy a living house in your Country.And I hope that this transaction will
be given an urgent approval and will be treated with the strictest confidence.
I am IBRAHIM KUTA from Angola, my Late Father General SAK SUMALA ADAMS KUTA
was a well Re-knowned Rebel Leader who controlled the Gold and Diamond
Regions of Angola for 27 years before he was later killed by the government
troops of President ANTONIO DON SANTOS of Angola.but before he died, he
revealed and handed to me all the whole relevant documents
covering the deposit of two trunk boxes in a Security company in COTONOU-BENIN
REPUBLIC WEST AFRICA, where my younger sister is schoolling.
I made a threatening political statement against our present incubent President
ANTONIO DON SANTOS.as a result of this I was singled out by the whole nation
of Angola as another dangerous threat to peace and stability in my country.
Several attempts was made by the government and by some disgruntled individuals
to assasinate and eliminate me.
When I saw that my life was under serious threat,I decided to leave the
country and seek for political asylum in neighbouring Congo with my younger
sister.
Furthermore,my father stepped on many toes while he was carrying
out his rebel activities and many of his enemies are after me. I stayed
in Congo for 1 month, I then flee to COTONOU-BENIN inorder to claim what
my father left for me there to inherit,but reaching there I was unable to
claim it because of the demurrage fee.
My father deposited two boxes containing valuables under the custody of
a Security Company Vault for safekeeping here in COTONOU-BENIN.
My father did not disclose the content of the boxes to the Security Company,
so that they can not raise eyebrow against him,rather he disguised and deposited
it as FAMILY TREASURE.
The real content of the first box is 200kg of 22karrat plus alluvial gold
dust.While the other one contains $45 million u.s.a dollars.
Please, I want you to assist me to claim this consignment from the Security
Company here in COTONOU.and move it to your Country.And also to help me
transfer the physical cash
into your bank account for purely investment purposes.
I am ready to sign an undertaking to release 15% of this total money to
you and the remaining 85% will be purely for investment
purpose.I am now living under the status of a refugee fleeing from persecution
and threat to my life.
I have the United Nations High Commission For Refugees Protection(UNHCR)
documents covering my stay here in Benin as a refugee seeking protection
and security.
I believe that you are a trusted and reliable person as I want to go into
business relationship with you.And I fully hope that you will not betray
me at last.
please reply to my private email ibrahimkuta2004@hotmail.com
I am waiting to hear from you bye.
Yours Sincerely,
IBRAHIM KUTA.
