Solomon.D.Johnson the owner of (RMS)minining company in
Sierra-leonne .Who died three years ago when the revolutionary united front
rebels(R.U.F)attacked our residence in Free Town, Sierra-leone. killed my
father out of wickedness, claiming that my family is strongly in support of
the then governing body. Following the cease fire agreement which was
reached some years ago with the help of United Nation peace keeping
troops,I used the opportunity to leave the country with a very important
document of (US$8.5m) Eight million Five hundred thousand U.S Dollars
deposited by
my late father in security company in Dakar Senegal, my name appears as next
of kin. this money was realised from diamonds export, now i and my mother
are seeking asylum in Dakar-Senegal under(UNHCR). I Contacted You Because Of
The Need To Deal With Person Whom My Family And I Have No Previous Personal
Relationships, And I got Your Contact through Internet when i was searching

People As Transparent And Trust-worthy To Engage In Business, Hence My
Reason For Writing You. However,This Money In Question Has Been In The
Security Company Since His Death.But My Main Problem Now Is That At My Age
Of 26 I Am Confused On How to Handle This Huge Amount Of Money And Also
What To Do With It As I Don't Have Anyone To Confide In Senegal Here.May I
Use This Medium To Request From You If You Will Be Disposed Enough To Help

Security To The Money. I Have Meet The Security Company With The
