Dear trustee,
I know this proposal might come to you as a surprise.

was violently overthrown from the Office on May 13,1998 by forces loyal to rebel leader LAURENT KABILA Following the overthrown which forced my father into exile to Morocco in North Africa where he later died.With the overthrown and unfortunate death of
my father, the Kabila Government seized all my father’s Bank Account and family business invested in some African Countries and that has rendered the family helpless. Recently, our family house in Switzerland was auctioned by Kabila Government and the p
roceed was repatriated to the same Government. With this
development, the family has empowered me to seek for any honest and God fearing individual who will assist in transferring the huge amount of US$45 million to a less tax account overseas.
I have deposited this money with a private Security and Finance Trust Company in one of the African Countries as GOLD DUST. Thismoney is part of the fund set aside by my father for the purchase of arms and ammunitions worth US$60million through independe
nt arm dealers in Russia which some of it (US$15m has used during the power tussle between my father Kabila. I was arrested and detained when Kabila discovered that I am signatory to President Mobutu’s account in
switzerland.
I was smuggled out of detention with the help of my close friends who are stillserving under President Kabila. I escaped from the Country through the Congo river with the help of fishermen. I am now residing temporarily in Lome-Togo. Now that Kabila has
died. He was assassinated on January 16th 2001, his son (Joseph Kabila) has taken over the Government. The state of the Government is still in fear.
All I want from you is to come to Lome-Togo, West Africa, where we will hold a meeting and proceed to the Security Company where you will see the money yourself and you assist to negotiate for the transfer of the fund into your overseas Bank Account, thi
s transaction will not take more than 2-3days from your arrival date.
The family has resolve that 25% will be your share for your assistance in this purpose and other assistance you will be given in this regard. 5% will be mapped out to pay local and Internationalexpenses which may be incurred in the process of securing t
his money. 70% is for the family Financial needs and for investment overseas with your comprehenssive advice. If my proposal are Ok, you are required to forward your reply through my email box.
