Dearest Hans Kolk ,
I hope this email will find you in good health,
First of all by Introduction. My name is John Kumara Jim Fornah Jnr born
1980,From the Diamond Rich town of Mende western Freetown Sierra Leone west
Africa.
I am the son of late Dr Jim Fornah, my late father held a lot of respected
and envious position in the government of President Tejan Kabbah before his
untimely death after a brief illness,
He my Late father was the former bank governor of my country Sierra Leone,
he was also the finance and President Tejan Kabbah economic adviser. My late
father because of his position acquire lots of properties through diligence,
God fearing and handwork.
Before the outbreak of the eight years Brutal civil war in my Country Sierra
Leone, My late father sold our family land which was rich in diamond
deposits to an American Mining company ,Because of the rebels brutality in
my country, As the rebels were looting banks, finance houses and even
breaking the national vaults. My late father to safeguard the fund Hurried
and went to ACCRA-GHANA and Deposited the Fund $32 Million United States
Dollars In a Security company. My Late father whom was an asthmatic patient,
died of cancer of the heart in 2001, in the United States of America on a
Government Sponsored medical treatment .You can go to this link to confirm

My late father`s corpse was Buried in our country home in Mende Western
Freetown Sierra Leone, After The Burial of my late father the rebels WEST
SIDE BOYS held Our Entire family hostage until the Government secured our
release, Due to the break down of law and order, as the rebels were killing
everybody recklessly, we left Freetown sierra Leone to Accra Ghana, We
arrived Ghana through a boat with other Refugees, We are presently in GO MOA
REFUGEE CAMP. Accra Ghana as refugees.
My Mother tried to locate the company to confirm this deposit and thank God
She found the company, we then presented the documents to the company
director and told him that we wants to claim the deposited metallic Trunk
Box in their custody.
The Security company has confirmed that they do have such Deposit with them
based on the documents we presented to them, He went on to say Madam as you
can see even from the agreement we can not release the Mettallic trunk box
to you without the concept of your husbands foreign partner, this is why we
contacted you so as to stand for us as my late fathers foreign partner and
also our proxy man to get this metallic box out of the Security company and
transfer the fund to your country for any good investment which you will
recommend to us,
We have resolved to give you 20% of the Total fund $32 Million united states
Dollars as your compensation for helping us. What matters to us is trust,
secrecy and confidentiality, as nobody else knows about this fund except My
Sister, My mother, you and I now. Even the Security company did not know the
real content of the trunk metallic box because the content were
declared/documented as artwork from the national museum.
I will not forget to bring to your notice that this transaction requires
trust, confidentiality and urgency. We look forward to your positive and
immediate response. Bye and may God bless you.
You can also reach us on 00233-243-654-410.
