Subject: PLEAE HELP.
Dear Friend,
My name is Tito Guei the Son of late General Robert Guei, the
Ex-Military Head of State of Ivory Coast, who was murdered along with
the Interior Minister on the 19th of September 2002 (You can visit
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/2269238.stm for complete report on
this incident). I contacted you because of my need to deal with persons
whom my family and I have had no previous personal relationships. Since
the murder of my father, I have been subjected to all sorts of
harassment and intimidation with lots of negative reports emanating
from the Government and the press about my family. The present Government
has
also ensured that our bank accounts are frozen and all assets seized. It
is
in view of this that I seek your co-operation and assistance in the
transfer of the sum of Seventy Million United States Dollars
($70,000,000.00) CASH being the very last of my family fund in my
possession and control, after the murder of my father the Federal Government
seized
all our properties and our accounts both local and international was
frozen.
My only hope now is this cash that my father carefully packaged and
deposited as Non-Exposable Photographic Materials with a
Security/Finance Company in Eroupe with an anonymous name. I am presently
in
South Africa seeking Asylum and to withdrew the money from the security
company I shall intoduce my late father"s Attorney who base in London UK
to
provide you with the documents that will be needed in the security company.
This money can easily be with drawn or be moved to a recommended
beneficiary country. I have with me all the proof and documents. Now
based on the problem my family is having presently, I will want to use your
details to reproduce a new certificate of deposit so that you will be
able to claim this fund from the security company, My aim of doing this is
to make sure that my family name dose not associate with the fund in
the security company, As we do not wish to give room for any suspicion.
To show my preparedness and appreciation to carry-out this business
With you, 30% of the total sum will be your share while 20% commission
of the proceeds realized from the investment of this fund will also be
yours, also 5% is to be set aside for any eventual cost that might
arise as the transaction proceeds. I need your full support and co-operation
for the success of this transaction. I plead with you to treat this
issue confidential and urgent because it is delicate and it demands a
great degree of secrecy. I sincerely will appreciate your quick response.
I
wait to hear from you.
Regards
Tito Guei
