Subject: urgent partnership
Dear sir/Madam,
It is my pleasure to write you, pending on this urgent business proposal. It
may be strange to you of who I am and how I got your contact. However, I am
Mr. Davis Marc a citizen of republic of Sierra- Leone.
Also I am the accountant general / treasurer of the republic of Sierra-
Leone I am 45 years old of age and happily married. I got your contact
through a reliable and a confident source with pleasant motives, which I
shall reveal to you as soon as you are interested to know.
As you must have heard about my country (Sierra-Leone) and the serious
suffering for humanity and the national unrest killing and hostility in the
hands of the rebels this event have caused much more death and destruction
of properties in the country. As a matter of fact my people
have become emergency refugees in other Africa countries. Consequently I am
badly affected because the rebels needed my assistance and co-operation in
releasing the national treasury department to them which I strictly refused
their entry. Therefore out of my four children two was kidnapped including
my father and they were eventually killed by the rebels. Further more, all
my investments and other assets were burst to pieces and bank accounts
confiscated.
Even my life and that of rest of my family are in danger. But it was not
only me in the government facing this hard time, all the government official
were also maltreated after all these, I patiently continued but I now see it
necessary to quit Africa with my family since the trouble never make any
step of reconciliation and Africa continent is very unreliable now as there
s political and ethnic war in every part. Presently, I am taking refugee
with my family in Abidjan Côte dâIvoire under the United Nations refugee
umbrella.
Unfortunately Côte dâIvoire is Having political unrest and may equally
burst to pieces soonest, so I am tired and sincerely need your support and
assurance to invest wisely and relocate to your country through your
productive ideas and qualities. I have $16.5 million US dollar to be
invested in your country though your support and this existing amount is
right safe and presently not in SIERRA LEONE but lodge in the custody of a
security and finance company some where around West Africa region which I
may disclosed to you as soon as I receive your compliance.
I would be contented to have your private contact (Your name,company name
and address including your private phone and fax numbers where I can reach
you during and after working hours) for security reasons and I am very
optimistic to release a reasonable percentage of this amount to you for your
assistance. I anticipate your speedy response.
Please kindly contact me immediately you receive this message through
this confidential electronic box:davismarc_45@yahoo.ca
Yours sincerely.
Mr. Davis Marc
