Dear Friend,
I am writing with my personal respect with regards to your reposed personality/firm as are liable,trustworthy and God fearing. I am the first son of Mr. Jerry Momoh from Sierra Leone. I with two of my younger brothers are presently on asylum in South Africa. Our late father was the minister for solid minerals under Johnny Paul Koromah's regime in Sierra Leone.
During the intervention of the ECOMOG Soldiers to restore the presidency,of Alhaji Tejan KABBAH from Johnny Koromah, my father was among the 23 executed Ministers . Hence our safety was not secure in Sierra leone. I and my younger ones decided to move to South Africa for safety.
After the burial of our father me and my younger ones decided to move to Cape Town, South Africa, where our late father deposited a consignment containing Fourty Five million United States Dollars (US $ 45,000.000.00) only.which was registered as a family treasure, also to seek an asylum for our safety.
Therefore we decided to withdraw it and put to use and was disappointed as it is against the human right law SECTION 22 OF THE REFUGEES ACT NO.130 OF 1998 that asylum seekers in the country do not have the right to operate a bank account or to run an enterprise in the country, after much consideration we arrive at a point that it will be of interest for us to contact a foreign partner who we will trust and insure him or her the beneficiary of this fund. Due to our asylum status and based on our intent to liaise with you for investment co-operation, we are soliciting that you should claim the consignment deposited by our late father in a security company in Cape Town-South Africa.
The relevant document regarding the deposit made by our father will be forwarded to you for your perusal once we receive your letter of acceptance.We will engage a services of a lawyer to normalize your name with the security company as the sole claimant. Please if you are interested in the proposal for our co-operation,then you should furnish me with your most private telephone and fax numbers. Also you should endeavour to send your Address to enable the lawyer conclude the paper works in your name at the security company as a sole claimant of the consignment. We are suggesting that we should be sharing the procceds from the investment quaterly on the percentage that we should agree upon.
Also, you are entitled to advise us on investment catchment areas that is of high profit orientation. Your utmost trust, sincererity and Confidentiality is highly needed in this transaction, because of our position, be free to ask question you consider necessary and be kind to provide me with your communication facilities for smooth and confidential link, should this meet your utmost consideration. Thanks for your anticipated co-operation and understanding.
Yours Sincerely,
Tijani momoh
