Good day,
My name is Mr kingsley Hamson the only son of late Mr/Mrs john Hamson. My parents were wealthy cocoa merchants when they were alive. My mother died while i was 6years old and my father took charge of the business untill he was poisoned by an uncle who colligued with my father's business partners due to greed.
Before the death of my father on September 2004 in a private hospital here in Abidjan, He secretly called me on his bed side and disclosed to me about the sum of Six million, five hundred thousand US dollars USD ($6.5million ) he left in a suspense account in one of the local bank here in Abidjan , he intended to transfer the money to overseas for investment before he was poisoned, he instructed me to look for a foreign partner in any country of my choice who will provide a foreign account where this money will be transfered.
Because of the current political problem here in my country, I have made up my mind to transfer this money to your country where i can feel save and invest this money wisely. I am hereby seeking for your kind assistance in the following ways:
(1) To provide a safe bank account where the money will be transferred and a good business that you can invest it .
(2) To serve as a guardian to this fund since I am a boy of 24 years old.
(3) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education.
I am willing to offer you 15% of the total money as compasention to your efforts or input for the success of this transaction . I await your soonest responds so that we can proceed. please contact me through my private email..(kings_h@o2.pl)
Best regards from,
Mr kingsley Hamson.
