Dear
Good day!!.
Compliments of the day and my best wishes to you and
family!!!.
I know this letter will come to you surprisingly but
let it not be a
surprise to you, for nature has a way of arriving
unannouced and an
adage says originals are very hard to find but their
echo sounds louder. So,
I decided to contact you myself for you to assure me
of safety and honesty
if Ihave to entrust any amount of money under your
custody.
I am MR FRANK IYIEKE.Fleming, the son of late Mr
IYIEKE.S.Fleming(Jr)
who was the minister of finance in Liberia but was
killed during the civil
ar.Knowing your country as being economical condusive
for investment and
your people as transperant and trustworthy to engage
in business on which
premise I write you.
Before my father death, he had the sum of twenty-three
million united
states dollars (us$23,000,000.00) which he kept away
from the rebel
leaders during the course of the war. this fund was
supposed to be
used for rehabilitation of water reserves all over the
country before the
outbreak of war. when the war broke out, the rebel
leader demanded that this
fund be given to him, my father insisted that the
money was not in his
possesion but he was killed because of his refusal to
release the fund.
Meanwhile my mother and i is the only person who knows
about this
fund,because my father always confide in me. I quickly
made an arrangemnt
with a red cross rellief worker who used his official
van to move this money
to Morovia International Airport, although he did not
know the real content
of the box.
The fund was deposited as a family treasure with a
safe relaible
security company . As a result, I still kept this
money also for security reasons as the present
administration is
nvestigating the existence of such fund of which I
denied knowledge of it,
claiming that my father did not tell me about such
money.
The only assistance I need from you which i believe
you would do for
me are the following:
1. Assist me invest this money in your country
2. Assure me that you will not sit on my share when
this fund gets to
your country.
You will have 15% of the money for yourself as you
guide me further
to invest the remaining 80% in any valueble business
venture while 5% is
earmarked to cover expenses contingencies.
Most importantly, i will like to buy a personal house
where i and my
mother will reside.
Upon confirmation of your interest to help me as my
foreign partner
to invest this money, i will link you the details of
this transaction to be
scheduled in your favour by the security company.
While thanking you for your anticipated understanding
and
cooperation, I look forward to your urgent response.
please note that this transaction is strictly
confidential and must
be treated with utmost secrecy.
Best regards,
MR FRANK IYIEKE
