Contact: 27-839878553
Dear Friend,
First I must solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction and I
pray that my decision to contact you will be given genuine approval
considering the facts you and I just meet in the net. I wish to use this
opportunity to introduce myself to you. I am Kelvin Momougo from
Sierra-Leone.
I write you to know my desires to invest in your country; I am the first son
of Jonathan K.Momougo, who was the former Minister of Mines and Industry. My
father had a bullet wounds bythe rebels on his way traveling to the Capital
city Freetown along with my sister. My sister died on the spot while U.N
Peace keeping force rescued my father, he later died after eleven months.
Before his death he told to me about the box containing $3.5 million U.S
Dollars to look after my self and my Mother and shouldn’t go to Sierra-Leone
for my safety. Why my father deposit the fund in the security company in
South Africa for safety of the fund.
Presently, my mother and I are here in South Africa to notify the security
company for the claims for the FUND, and we are staying in the refugee camp.
Therefore I want you to lecture me on how best we can invest this money in
your country and as I told you I really wanted to buy a house when I come
there. My father told me it is dangerous to invest this money in Africa to
avoid suspicious, due to its bad economy and political instability facing
Africa countries that is why I want to invest in abroad.
For your foreign assistance I and my mother have agreed to offer 15% of the
total amount of the money. We have all the vital documents covering the
deposit fund and the ownership which I can send to you through fax on
request.
NOTE: I have never disclosed this to any person apart from you, so you have
to keep this matter very confidential. Send me your Private phone and fax
numbers for more information.
Reach me on my private Email: kevinmomougo3@hotmail.com
Phone No: 27-839878553
Best Regards,
Kevin Momougo.
