Subject: Greetings From Manpo,
Greetings From Manpo,
Dear Sir.
Please may I use this medium to introduce myself to you? I am a
Sierra-Leonean nationality, my name is Manpo Kaho the son of Late Prof.
Joseph Ibrahim Kaho, my father has a Diamond and Mining Corporation in
Sierra-Leone before the war finally broke out.
Since then things have never been the same and presently, I am seeking
refugee with my only sister Mss Jeanny Kaho here in Ghana. I pray that my
decision to contact you will be given a genuine approval considering the
facts that we have not known each other before.
Before my father was killed he deposited some huge amount of money in Ghana
with a security company in save box which was deposited as described to be
containing Precious Items and Personal Effect. My father intentionally
registered it with this code because of hijackers and not to raise eyebrows,
he only disclose it to me that it is money.
As stated in my father's WILL, the money deposited is about thirty million
dollars (USD$ 30.000.000.DOLLARS), including GOLD and DIAMOND, the Gold and
the Diamond worth about USD10,000,000.00. I have worked out arrangements to
get this box containing the fund to be taken out of Africa.
I need your assistance to receive the box in your country because my father
stated in his
WILL that I should not tamper with this money here in Africa for security
reasons, immediately the boxes arrived in your country, you will meet the
diplomatic officials and they will deliver the boxes to you.
All the documents covering the legality of the money will be sent to you
following with a change of ownership agreement from my father's name to your
name as already been arranged with my attorney. As you can understand,
presently we are seeking asylum under Ghana government, we have been able to
work out the strategy to move this box out of Africa under
legitimate arrangement.
When the boxes get over to your country you will receive it as our trustee
and beneficiary. I and my sister have worked out 25percent of the amount for
you and your family, 5percent kept aside for any expenses you may incure
during the process and the remaining 70%percent is what I and my sister will
invest and live with.
I want you to assured me of your reliability and trustworthy concerning this
business, I will be very grateful if only you can help me out of this
transaction of the whole thing. Because I want this cash to be moved to
overseas for investment, on investment we will still rely on you as
a business expertise to recommend a viable business that will be profitable
in future.
Do e-maill me as soon as you receive this letter for any further information
that you need to know. Kindly send me your private phone and fax number to
enable me sends you the legal document that is covering the boxes. We are
counting on you and looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks and God be
with you.

Yours faithfully,
Manpo Kaho.
