civil war in my country, now he has deposited the money with BANK IN Abidjan,
where I am residing under political asylum with my younger brother.

Now the war in my country is over with the help of ECOMOG soldiers, the
present government of Sierra Leone has revoked the passport of all officers
who served under the former regime and now ask countries to expel such
person at the same time freeze their account and confiscate their asset,it

Honestly I want you to believe that this transaction is real and never a

te of deposit issued to me by BANK ABIDJAN on the date of deposit, for you
to be clarify because, I do not expose my self to anybody I see, I believe
that you are able to keep this transaction secret for me because this money

on the day of deposit and also told me I need an assistance
of a foreigner with a legitimate bank Account abroad who will stand as
co-beneficiary and partner abroad to ensure a successful hitch
free transfer of the fund abroad.



Thanks and God bless.
