Dear Sir,
I wish to introduce myself as MR. KINGSLEY BAKOH, 23yrs old. The eldest son of PAUL C. BAKOH of Zimbabwe. This might be a suprise to you where I got your contact address, I got it through the network online. I was convinced to solicit for your assistance
after reading your profile. I am interested in doing business with your company, particularly, in joint venture in your country on lucrative busines.
During current war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the support of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white and black farms in our country, so he ordered all the white and black farmers to surrender all their farms to his members and his fo
llowers, and my father was one of the best farmers in our country,because he did not support his idea and his supporters invaded my fathers farm and burnt everything in the farm and killed my father and confiscated all his investment. after the death of
my father, my mother,younger brother and I decided to move out of Zimbabwe because our life is still in danger, After the death of my father, my mother called me and narrated to me how she and my father deposited the sum of US$14.5 Million (Fourteen Mill
ion United States Dollars) with a private security company here in Abidjan Cote D'ivoire west Africa.
She also showed me all the documents relating to this deposited money as proves of deposit, which no other person knows about it. It is only my mother and my father that know about the money.
Meanwhile I was adviced by a Lawyer to transfer the fund to any oversea country for safety pending when I got reliable somebody that will assist receive the fund in his foreign safe account and at the same time give me light of investment based on techni
cal know how / business.
However my aim of contacting you is to help me look for the profitable investment overseas. As a result of my present status and as a refugee I won't be able to conclude this transaction alone. If you are interested in helping me out, try and contact me
through this e-mail address indicating your interest to help me. I will then furnish you with more details and I have mutually agreed to compensate you with 20% which is your share for assistance, and 10% for the expenses that may occure in the course of
the transaction.
Then the remaining 70% will be for me and my family, which you will help me invest in your country. Based on my extreme contemplation due to the amount involved I refrain for further details pending receipt of your approval.
Therefore kindly clarify me on the following issues:
1. Can your account accommodate this fund without your government intervention?
2. What investment would suggest for us?
3. What are the interest rates in your local banks?
4. What would be the taxes?
