My father stayed in jail for about a month and five days when they now released him out of jail before taking him to court for a trail on the 24th day of January 2005, so on the process, going through this coincident he felt a terrible sickness which resulted to a stroke, he was admitted in the Sakumono Specialist Hospital where he finally died, but before he died, he called me as his only surviving son and told me that he deposited the sum $10.5MUSD with a security and finance firm in Europe for his investment plans in Europe.
He deposited US$ 10.5M contained in 1 Trunk Box in my name as the beneficiary containing family valuables. He did not disclose the real contents of the box to the security company. Rather, he declared the deposit as Family Valuables for security reasons.
Now as the only surviving Son without a brother or good relations I need a foreigner who will assist me to retrieve this money tagged family valuables from the security and finance firm in Asia, I will send the documents and power of Attorney to you, which will enable you make the claims as the beneficiary since the Government of my own land Ghana has taken away my father’s life then I can’t trust anybody from Ghana for this kind of transaction, that’s the reason why I am intrusting into your hand as a foreigner this project, for you to assist me to sign off and claim the money on my behalf as the beneficiary from the security and finance firm in Asia.
