INVESTMENT PROPOSAL
ATTN: SIR,
I am MR. WILLIAM SIAKA, I got to know of you
courtesy of International Business Bureau here in
VALENCIA-SPAIN and through your remarkable profile on the Internet. Sequent to my zeal towards
foreign investment partner and also security for my life,family and
my possession, I therefore write to give you a Break-down of this proposal. Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium of
communication. However, this correspondence is purely private, and it should be treated as such.
I was the Director of Sierra-Leone Diamond corporation (SLDC)and personal confidant to the president of
Sierra-Leone (ALH. TEJAN KABBAH) who was formerly
pushed out of office by a military coup carried out by
disgruntled soldiers. However, when these soldiers
strucked His Excellency was forced to run into Guinea
Conakry on exile, some of his closest aids left for
some other countries. While these events took place I
decided to move to Europe (VALENCIA-SPAIN) with my
family and a treasure containing the total sum of US$10.000.000 (TEN Million US Dollars)and Diamonds wort's over (US$3M) which was part of the items left under my control within the Ministry of mineral resuorces where I was in charge as the Director of Sierra-Leone Diamond corporation.
With the help of a Spanish diplomat whom I know while in office I was able to move this money and the Diamonds to Valencia. On arrival here in Valencia, I
immediately deposited the treasure containing the fund and the Diamonds into a private Security Company for safe keeping,
although the Security Company is not aware of the
cash as they were all deposited as Diamond treasures and African artifacts.
Right now the situation in my country has returned
normal and I do not want to go back. I am seeking for
a partner who shall serve as the guardian of this fund and also the Diamonds to help me manage these properties for the period of five (5) years as I need to get more experience on international business which I know little or nothing about since I was a carrier civil servant till date.
with whom I can plan the best way to move this money
for investment purposes which is my motive for
contacting you to actualize the project. You are
required to assist in the following manners.
1)You would be required to come down to Spain and go with me to the security company for the claiming of this funds and the diamonds as all relevant documents shall be changed in your name or company name for the safety of the funds and my safety bearing in mind the origin of this funds.
2) That you shall be required to provide a good Bank
account where the money could be transferred and
where taxation will not take much toll on the money As soon as they are claimed from the safe company.
3) That you shall serve as the general overseer and
guardian of this fund and all investment thereafter for a period of time that shall be agreed by both parties if not the one written here.
4) To assist in providing me and my immediate family a
permanent residential permit in your country after the
money must have been transferred to your account.
For these services a suitable percentage (%) will be
mapped out for you after you have shown your
willingness to assist if you would not wish to enter into partnership with me as already stated for about five (5) years. So if you are interested reply me via email for further details.
Having stated the above clearly, I expect to receive
your response soonest as I do not intend to have this
transaction delayed.
Please treat this as highly confidential.
Thank you and God Bless.
Yours Truly,
MR.WILLIAM SIAKA.
