Good day Sir,
I am Barrister Favour Humble, and I was the legal adviser to Charles Taylor, the formal Liberian president, while he was in asylum in Nigeria before the Nigerian government handed him over to the Liberian government to face war crime case in Sere lone.
When the order for his immediate return to Sere lone was made to the Nigeria government by UN during the visit of the Liberian lady president to Nigeria and thereafter his attempt to escape and arrested after, he told me in c onfi dence to assist his family get a trustworthy foreign partner to claim and invest on behalf of his family the sum of $17,000 000.00 US Dollars which he brought from his country to Nigeria during the time he left Liberia for an asylum to Nigeria and put into fixed deposit in finance company in Nigeria.
Now he was betrayed by the Nigerian government, by handing him over to the Liberian and following the immediate seizure of his Estate in Cross River worth millions of dollars by the Nigeria government, the son demanded me as the family lawyer to seek for a trust worthy foreigner who is God fearing and honest to claim on their behalf and invest in his/her country, his father's left sum of $17,000 000.00 US Dollars in a bank here in Nigeria, West Africa, before the Nigerian government will discover that their father kept such money in the finance company. Personally, I went to the concerned bank myself with Alfred his son, to meet with the bank director officials t o discourse over the issue and seek their advise and make proper arrangements with them on how the funds should be move immediately out of the shores of the country without the fund having any problems or judiciary clause.
The officials advised that the best way is to get a foreign investor and change the ownership of the funds to his name as the beneficiary of the funds and the funds will be move to him in his name to his country either by bank transfer or by an arranged cash delivery without any hitch.
It was after this meeting that I personally considered that you are a match to this business and without delay make a contact to you seek for your honest co-operation.
It is agreed that for your acceptance to assist in claiming this funds and invest it under the coverage of your name, care and control in your country, your share should be 20% of the total sum, 5% to repay any expenses incurred during the transaction, and the 60% out of the r e main share you should help them to invest in a profitable business you know very well in your country under your care and supervision in your country.
Therefore, if your are willing to give your co-operation and assistance in this matter kindly indicate your interest by sending to me immediately the following information required for the processing the legal funds claims in your name as now the beneficiary of the said funds.
(1) Your house or office address,
(2) Your direct telephone (home & mobile) and fax number,
(3) Copy of your international passport or drivers license.
I wait to hear from you and we will proceed to move the transaction forward in your favour.
Thanks for your understanding and your anticipated co-operation.
Yours sincerely,
Barrister Favour Humble.
