FROM:MRS ELIZABETH HAMSON.
IVORY COAST
WEST AFRCA
Dear,
I know this proposal letter may come to you as a
surprise considering the fact that we have not had any
formal acquaintance before .but all the same I would
want you for the sake of God to give this an immediate
attention in view of the fact that the security of our
live and possession is at stake .
I am Mrs Elizabeth Hamson from war ravaged
SIERRA LEONE but presently domiciled in Abidjan Ivory
coast with my two sons .My Husband Mr Richard Hamson
who before his untimely assassination by the rebels
was the Director of SIERRA LEONE Diamond corporation
(SLDC) .He was killed in our government residential
house along side two of my other brothers ,two house
maids and one government attached security guard
fortunately for I, and my two sons,we were on a week
end visit to our home town As we got the news of the
tragedy .We immediately managed to ran into
neighbouring Ivory coast for refuge .But
unfortunately .
As we were coming into this country ,we had some
documents of a deposit of $ 17 500 000 USD (fifteen
million five hundred thousand USD ) made by my late
Husband in a security and trust company .According to
my Husband , he intended to use this fund for his
international business transaction after his tenure in
office but was unfortunately murdered .We had located
the security company where the money is deposited with
the help of an attorney and established ownership.
please right now ,with the bitter experiences we had
in our country and the war still going on especially
in diamond area which incidentally is where we hail
from .coupled with the incessant political upheavals
and hostilities in this country Ivory coast ,we
desire seriously to leave here and live the rest of
our life into a more peaceful and politically stable
country like yours Hence this proposal and request .We
therefore wish you can help us in the following
regards :
1) To provide us with a good bank account to transfer
the money into
2) To help us invest the money into a lucrative
business .
3) To assist my two sons get a college admission
to further their education.
Please I know that , this letter may sound strange and
incredible to you but the CNN and the BBC African
bulletin normally have it as their major news
features .
Therefore for the sake of God and humanity
give an immediate positive consideration and reply to
me via our e-mail address.
I will willingly agree to any suitable percentage of
the money you will propose as your compensation for
your assistance with regards to the above .please in
view of our sensitive refugee status and as we are
still conscious of my Husband's enemies .I would like
you to give this a highly confidential approach .
Best Regards .
