IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE
FROM :MR.Robert SANKOH
AND MRS.ROSE SANKOH
ABIDJAN - COTE D'IVOIRE
Sir,/Madam,
It took me a long time to make up my mind to let you know about this business proposal I am to introduce to you. It is because I don't want to throw away golden opportunity I have by involving the wrong person . I do hope that you will not let me down because this is something that will be of mutual benefit to both of us.
As indicated above, my name is MR Robert SANKOH son of the rebel leader FODAY F. SANKOH former chairman of A Sierra Leonine Gold and Diamond Corporation).
My father was arrested by the present government of Mr. TEJAN KABBAH for planing to overthrew his government.
Though, I do not know to what extend you are familiar with events and disturbances in Sierra Leone.However,during the disturbances and prior to my father's arrest,he gave
me a certificate meant for a secret deposit he made in a Security Company in Abidjan.
The deposit is worth $ 22,000,000 (Twenty two million US) in cash and 250 kilos of raw gold concealed and declared as containing family items.The Security Company only know the content of one box.While none of Security Company officials is aware of the real content of the second box.
According to my father,the said money was paid to the corporation by it's overseas customers in the heat of the disturbances and the gold he made it when he was the chairman. He made this deposit as belonging to my father's
foreign partners with the hope of converting it to his family use at the end of the conflict.
But later,he was arrested when the fracas intensified as a result of the involvement of the UN Peace Keeping force in Sierra Leone .
On the strength of the above, I fled to Abidjan with my mother where I am presently residing. However I have gone to the Security Company to confirm the deposit and inform them that my father's foreign partner is coming to
claim the consignment.
Therefore, I solicit for your assistance (hoping that you are honest and trustworthy) in transferring the money out of Africa for business world and also, look for somebody who can buy the gold for me. You will be compensated adequately for your participationin this transaction. if you are interested, I will highly appreciate your physical
presence in Abidja n for the following reasons :
1- To know each other very well
2- To sign agreement of trust
3- To see and confirm everything yourself.
4- To finalise modalities for successful transfer
of the money and gold.
For the propose of security and to guarantee hitch-free transaction, as soon as you receive this message.You must maintain absolute confidentillity to ensure success.
Awaiting your immediate response.
Best Regard,
Mr.Robert Sankoh & Rose Sankoh (mother)
