Dear,
I am miss joy Komah the only daughter of late chief
Philip Komah from Sierra Leone.
I got your contact from the chember of comerce here in
ABIDJAN.My
sources of your contact gave me the courage and confidence
to rely on you.
I am writing you in absolute confidence primarily to seek
your assistance to
transfer my cash of twenty one million eight hundred
thousand dollars($21,800,000)
now in the custody of a security trust company here in
Abidjan to your private
account pending my arrival to your country.SOURCE OF THE
MONEY My late father,
Chief Philip Komah, a native of mende district in the
Northern
province of Sierra Leone, was the general Manager of Sierra
Leone mining co-operation
(S.L.M.C.) Freetown. According to my father. This money was
the income
accrued from mining co-operation's over draft and minor
sales. Before the peak of the civil
war between the rebels forces of major Paul Koroma and the
combined forces of ECOMOG
peace keeping operation that almost destroyed my country,
following the forceful
removal from power of the Civilian Elected President Ahmed
Tejan Kabbah by the rebels.
My father had already made arrangement for his family,my
mother, and
myself to be evacuated to Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire with our
personal effects and the box
containing team. My father deposited the box in a private
Security Company for the safe custody until
after the war when he will join us. During the war in my
country, and following the indiscriminate looting
of public and Government properties by the rebel forces,
the sierra Leone mining coop. Was one of the
targets looted and destroyed. My father including other top
Government functionaries Were attacked and killed
by the rebels because of his relationship with the civilian
Government of Ahmed Tejan Kabbah. As a result
of my father death, and with the news of my uncles
involvement in air crash in January, dashed our hope
of survival. The untimely deaths caused my mothers heart
failure and other related complications of which
she later died in the hospital After we must have spent a
lot of money on her.
Now and myself are alone in this strange country suffering
without any care or help.Without any relation,iam now
like refugees and orphan. my only hope now is in you and
the box deposited in the security company.To
this effect, I humbly solicit your assistance in the
following ways.
To assist me claim this box from the security company as a
foreign
partner/beneficiary.To transfer this money in your name to
your country.To make a good arrangement for a
joint business investment on my behalf in your country and
you,the caretaker.
To secure a college for me in your country for me to
further my
education.And to make arrangement for my travel
with you to your country after you have transferred this
fund. Most importantly, the security company
officials donot know the exact content of the box because
it was declared as family valuables belonging to
a foreign partner. The whole documents issued to my late
father after deposit are all in my custody. Please
writh me immediately you recieve this mail .I am waiting
anxiously for your urgent response
Thanks and God bless you.
