With due respect and humility I write you this letter which I believe you would be of great assistance to me and my children.
I am Miss Tina Koromah, the daughter of the late Dr DAVID KOROMAH of the blessed memory. Prior to my father's assassination by the rebel forces loyal to CORPORAL FODAY SANKOH of the Revolutionary United Front (RUF),
He was the Director General National Gold and Diamond Mining Corporation of Sierra-Leone. Few days before my father was assassinated, he instructed me and my brother ( DIDOW KOROMAH ) to move out of Sierra-Leone and also to go in his underground strong room where the documents of money he has deposited in a security company in Abidjan Cote d' Ivoire in one trunk Box as family valuables and treasures with my name as the first gaughter as the beneficiary.
The amount is US$15.500.000 (fifteen million Five Hundred United States Dollars.
We managed to escape to Abidjan the Republic of Cote D' Ivoire through the help of my father's friend who is a trawler. As our travelling document was sized. For your information , the security company did not know the real content of the box and we do not wish them to know until the money is transferred to your account. As it was deposited as family valuables and treasures.
Meanwhile, I want to leave Cote d'Ivoire entirely with this money for investment in your country because of the unstable political situation and mostly for the
our future. I want you to please assist us to claim the box from the security company in Europe, because of the political problem here I told Security Company to transfer the consignment to their branch office in Europe for safe keeping. So the consignment is now in Europe we have it in mind to reward you with a certain percentage for your assistance.
As soon as we hear from you. Do not hesitate to send me e-mail immediately you receive this letter to enable us proceed in Ernest toward retrieving the box and transferring of the money into your account. Finally, Please ensure that no one else knows about this money as it is only myself my brother, yourself and the Rev. Pastor of the church where we worship knows about this money. Please even if you don t want to assist me, please don t expose for my security.
Pleas contact me through this Email address ( tinakoromah31@yahoo.co.in)
