Dear friend,
I am well confidence of your capability to assist me in a transaction for
mutual benefit for both parties, ie (me and you) I am also believing that
you will not expose or betray the trust and confidence I am about to establish
on you. I have decided to contact you
with greatest delight and personal respect.
Well, My father Dr. Williams k.kabbah(Now Late) was the Royal Head of my
community, BO (a mineral rich town) in Sierra Leone.
My community produces 50.8% of the total crude gold and diamond production
in Sierra Leone and 0.5% of the Dollar value of each Kilo is paid to my father
as royalty by the former sierra Leonian government.
My father was also the Chairman of BO Special Mineral Trust Fund. In his
position as the Royal head and Chairman of the Mineral Trust Fund, he made
some money that he left for me as the son to inherit.
He confided in me and ordered me to go to his underground safe and move out
immediately, with a Deposit Agreement and Cash Receipt he made with a security
Company in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire where he deposited One Iron Box containing
USD$ 19 million dollars cash (Ninteen Million dollars cash). This money was
made from the sell of Gold and Diamond by my FATHER and he have already decided
to use this money for future investment of the family before his death.
Thereafter, I rushed down to Abidjan with these documents and confirmed the
deposit of the box by my father. Also, I have been granted political stay
as a Refugee by the Government of Cóte d'Ivoire.
Meanwhile, my father have instructed me to look for a trusted foreigner who
can assist me to move out this money from Cóte d'Ivoire immediately for investment
.
Could you be able to assist me to obtain my travelling papers after this
transfer to enable me come over to meet you in your country for the investment
of this money?
Could you be able to introduce me to a profitable business venture that would
not require much technical expertise in your country where part of this fund
will be invested?
Please, all these requirements are urgently needed as it will enable me to
establish a stronger business relationship with you hence I will like you
to be the general overseer of the investment thereafter. We are Christian
and I will please, want you to
handle this transaction based on the trust I have established on you.
For your assistance in this transaction, I have decided to offer you 5% percent
commission of the total amount ( $19 million dollars ) at the end of this
business. The security of this business is very important to me and as such,
I would like you to keep
this business very confidential.
I shall expect your urgent reply.
Thank you and God bless you.
George
