FROM JOHNSON SUMAH
: 521 Cocody Abidjan
Cote D' Ivoire West Africa.
Hello
It is my pleasure to write you after much consideration, since I cannot
be able to see you face to face at first. Being the only son of my father,
late Mr peter sumah from Sierra-Leone Africa (WA) I am 25 years of age.
My father was limited liability Diamond and Gold merchant in Freetown Sierra-Leone
before his untimely death. After his business trip to abidjan to nagociate
on a Good Investment business he wanted to invest in abidjan.
A week after he came back from abidjan , he got an accident with my mother
of which my mother died instantly but my father died after five days in a private hospital on that faithful afternoon, I didn?t know that my father
was going to leave me after I had lost my mother, but before he gave up
the ghost, it was as if he knew he was going to die.
He my father, (MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE) he disclosed to me that
he deposited sum of $12,000,000,00 US Dollars (Twelve Million Dollars) in a security company
here in abidjan That the money was meant for his Diamond and Gold company
he wanted to establish in
abidjan though, according to my father he deposited the money in a trunk
box but declared it as vital family belongings.
He single handed me the key of the box and the deposit certificate and instructed
me to seek for a reliable and trust worthy business partner for my life
time investment abroad. Now I have succeeded in locating the security company
here in abidjan also confirmed the items
with most honest and confidentiality.
Now I am soliciting for your assistance to help me lift this money out from
abidjan to your safe account abroad so that we should invest it in any meaningful
lucrative business in your country because this is my only hope in life.
I am willing to offer you 10% of the total fund if only you can help me
out of my present predicament. Awaiting anxiously to hear from you so that
we can discuss the modalities of this transaction.
I thank you for your understanding while i will be waiting for your immediate
response.
Yours sincerely.
