Subject: YOU ARE THE COOSEN ONE --------------Harriet Koomen,
Dear / Harriet Koomen,
I know this proposal might come to you as a surprise.
My knowing you is an ark of God.
I was convinced as to solicit for your support and
assistance I am John.Sese-Seko, the son of the former
president of Zaire now Democratic Republic of Congo
former president of Zaire now Democratic Republic of
Congo(President Mobutu Sese-Seko) my father was
violently overthrown from the Office on May 13,1998 by
forces loyal to rebel leader LAURENT KABILA Following
the overthrown which forced my father into exile to
Morocco in North Africa where he later died.With the
overthrown and unfortunate death of my father, the
Kabila Government seized all my father’s Bank Account
and family business invested in some African Countries
and that has rendered the family helpless. Recently,
our family house in Switzerland was auctioned by
Kabila Government and the proceed was repatriated to
the same Government. With this development, the family
has empowered me to seek for any honest and God
fearing individual who will assist in transferring the
huge amount of US$45 million to a less tax account
overseas.
I have deposited this money with a private Security
and Finance Trust Company in one of the African
Countries as GOLD DUST. Thismoney is part of the fund
set aside by my father for the purchase of arms and
ammunitions worth US$60million through independent arm
dealers in Russia which some of it (US$15m has used
during the power tussle between my father Kabila. I
was arrested and detained when Kabila discovered that
I am signatory to President Mobutu’s account in
switzerland.
I was smuggled out of detention with the help of my
close friends who are stillserving under President
Kabila. I escaped from the Country through the Congo
river with the help of fishermen. I am now residing
temporarily in Lome-Togo. Now that Kabila has died. He
was assassinated on January 16th 2001, his son (Joseph
Kabila) has taken over the Government. The state of
the Government is still in fear.
All I want from you is to come to Lome-Togo, West
Africa, where we will hold a meeting and proceed to
the Security Company where you will see the money
yourself and you assist to negotiate for the transfer
of the fund into your overseas Bank Account, this
transaction will not take more than 2-3days from your
arrival date.
The family has resolve that 25% will be your share for
your assistance in this purpose and other assistance
you will be given in this regard. 5% will be mapped
out to pay local and Internationalexpenses which may
be incurred in the process of securing this money. 70%
is for the family Financial needs and for investment
overseas with your comprehenssive advice. If my
proposal are Ok, you are required to forward your
reply through my email box.
Upon receipt of your favourable response, I will
advice the Security Company to change the Beneficiary
right to your name for easy transfer of the into your
Your account overseas.Please, feel free to ask any
question and seek for explanations if required.
please you should reply to this mail box ( jseko@zwallet.com )
Best regards,
John.Sese-Seko
