Subject: CAN YOU ASSIST ME??
ATTN:
PRESIDENT/DIRECTOR/CEO.
I am Prince Camara Kabah, the first son of late King Moshoeshoe Kabah II. I am 26 years old and a final year student of Medicine in the Korul-Bu Medical School here in Accra Ghana where I am presently writing my final thesis.
With regards to detailed information and recommendation of your personal and company from the Ghana Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI),
I wish to ask for your favor and assistance in this confidential business with you involving the transfer of US$10 million (TEN million US dollars) only into You personal or company's account for safekeeping till I come to your country.
This money was given to me as a portion of inheritance from my father during his ill days and before his death in a ghastly motor accident on June 1996, and was never disclosed to anyone in the family except my two sisters. Due to the polygamous battle for the struggle for birthright and who becomes my father's successor to the Lesotho dynasty, this problem wrecked the family; my dear life was at stake for the pursuant of this goal. I therefore deposited the money in a Security and Finance Company here in Accra to avoid jeopardy of the fund because we have no legitimate right to operate an account in Ghana
Recently, my father's properties and wealth was shared among his four wives. Eventually my mother happened to be the third, although she died when I was 7 years old and we had little or nothing out of it all because they suspected that I had conspired with my late
Father to steal some properties within my reach, as I was my father's favorite son, due to my career in education and my general attitude. All I want from you is to assist me in claiming my consignment from the Security Company and assist me also in
Transferring the fund into your account.
I am currently at loggerheads with my stepbrother, LETIE II MOHATO KABAH, who is currently the King of Basotho Kingdom (Lesotho); we do not agree in virtually everything in life. He ostracized me from family affairs because I questioned his extravagant (USD$1.5million marriage cost).
Please, I am restricted from further information but in the interim, I would like to know the following:
1. Can your account accommodate this sum?
2. What should be your terms (percentage)?
3. What would taxes be in your country?
4. What kind of lucrative investment do you suggest?
If there is any way you can help me, kindly get back to me immediately. Please endeavor to keep this business confidential to avoid tarnishing my image and royalty. God bless you.
PRINCE CAMARA KABAH
(ROYAL PALACE OF LESOTHO)
