Subject: HELLO
I have a new email address!You can now email me at: r_momoh111@yahoo.com
ATTN: Sir.
This business proposal to you is strictly confidential, with due respect. Sorry at this perceived confusion or stress you may have receiving this letter from me, Since we have not known ourselves or met previously. Despite that, I am constrained to
write you this letter because of the urgency of it.
I am Mrs. ROSE MOMOH, the wife of late LT. - Gen. DENNIS MOMOH former ECOMOG ARMY COMMANDER [West African peacekeeping force in Sierra Leone] who died in the Sierra Leone civil disturbance [War]. My three daughters and I are trapped in obnoxious custom traditional norms. We have suffered maltreatment and untold hardship in the hands of my late husband's family, simply because I did not bear a male child [heir apparent] for my late husband. By tradition, all that my late husband had, [wealth] belongs to his brothers/family. And myself is to be remarried by his immediate younger brother which I vehemently refused. They have taken
all that I suffered with my husband to acquire including treasures, houses and his bank particular seized by them. I wanted to escape to the United State of America [USA} with my children on exile, but again they conspired and stole my international passport and other traveling document to further frustrate me.
Thank God, two weeks ago, I received Key Text Code [KTC} from a Security & Finance Company that my late husband deposited U.S $15,000,000 Million [FIFTEEN Million ]United States Dollars] cash with this company. It has therefore, become very necessary and urgent to contact someone, a foreigner like you to help me receive/secure these funds overseas in a reliable bank Account (presumably an empty Bank Account, if available) and to help invest it on our behalf as well, while we find a way of getting out to meet with you in your country.
These funds are kept on an "OPEN BENEFICIARY MANDATE"with the Security Company to avoid detection, seizure or diversion. I have had several telephone
discussions with the Assistant Director of the security company, who has express willingness to help me on meeting the company's demand, as soon as I get a reliable person that will assist me on this. This is why I have contacted you to help save my children and I receive these funds on our behalf. But, you would need to give me sufficient assurance that if you will help me, you would not divert the funds.
My children and I have resolved to give you 30% of the total sum. This is all my children and I have got to live on.Please, I have reposed my confidence in you and hope you will not disappoint me. I look forward to your urgent response, including your private phone / mobile Number for easier communication.
NB: The secret codes (e.g Pin No., Secret Access Code) for this fund are safely kept with me which I can give you as soon as you express desire to help me.
Stay blessed.
MRS ROSE MOMOH
