Dear Sir,
I am MARKSON KAMARA the only son of late former Director of
finance,Chief
Vincent Kamara Sierra-Leone diamond and mining corporation.
I must confess my agitation is real, and my words is my bond, in
this proposal. My late father diverted this money meant for
purchase of
ammunition, for my country, during the peak of disastrous civil war
in my
country, now he has deposited the money with BANK in Abidjan, where
I am
residing under political asylum with my younger sister. Now the war
in my
country is over with the help of ECOMOG soldiers, the present
government of
Sierra Leone has revoked the passport of all officers who served
under the
former regime and now ask countries to expel such person at the
same time
freeze their account and confiscate their asset, it is on this note
that I
am contacting you, all I needed from you is to furnish me with your
bank
particulars:
1) Account name
2) Account number
3) Bank address, telephone and fax number
For you to assist me transfer this money in your private bank
account, the
said amount is (NINE Million Dollars) $9 Million.
I am compensating you with 15 % of the total money amount, now all
my hope
is banked on you and I really wants to invest this money in your
country,
were their is stability of Government, political and economic
welfare. Honestly I want you to believe that this transaction is
real and never a
joke. My late father Chief Kamara gave me the photocopies of the
certificate
of deposit issued to him by BANK on the date of deposit, for you to
be clarify because, I do not expose my self to anybody I see, I
believe that
you are able to keep his transaction secret for me because this
money is the
hope of my life, it is important.
Please call me immediately after you must have gone through my
message fill
free and make it urgent. That is the reason why I offered you 15 %
of the
total money amount, and in case of any other necessary expenses you
might
incur during this transaction.
N.B Try and negotiate for me some profitable blue chip investment
opportunities which is risky free which I can invest with this
money when it
is transferred to your account, personally I am interested in
estate management and hotel business, please advise me.
Call me back immediately you receive this message for more
explanation.And
promisse me my younger sister to be a father considering our
situation and
not to betray us.
Thanks and God bless
