Dearest One,
I got your contact address on my desperate search for a reliable
person/company for partnership investments overseas,I am also believing that
you will not expose or betray the trust and confidence I am about to
establish with you. I have decided to contact you with greatest delight and
personal respect.
Well, I am Ahmed Hassan,son to Dr.Ibrahim Hassan late former Director of
finance Sierra-Leone diamond and mining corporation.
Few days before the death my father, he confided in me and ordered me to go
to his underground safe and move out immediately, with a Deposit Agreement
and Cash Receipt he made with a BANK in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire where he
deposited USD$6.2 million dollars cash(SIX MILLION,TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS).This money was made from the sells of Gold and Diamond by my
father and he have already decided to use this money for future investment
of the family.
Thereafter, I rushed down to Abidjan with these two documents and confirmed
the deposit of the fund by my father. Also, I have been granted political
stay as a Refugee by the Government of Cote d'Ivoire.
Meanwhile, my father have instructed me to look for a trusted foreigner who
can assist me to move out this money from Cote d'Ivoire immediately for
investment.
Based on this,I solicit for your assistance to transfer this fund into your
Account, but I will demand for the following requirement:
(1) Could you provide for me a safe Bank Account where this fund will be
transferred to in your country or another nearby country where taxation will
not take great toll on the money?
(2) Could you be able to introduce me to a profitable business venture that
would not require much technical expertise in your country where part of
this fund will be invested?
(3) Your full name.
(4) Your residential house address.
(5) Your direct telephone and fax number.
(6) Your age and occupation.
(7) Marital status.
Please, all these requirements are urgently needed as it will enable me to
establish a stronger
business relationship with you hence I will like you to be the general
overseer of the investment there after.
I am trusthing you and I will please want you to handle this transaction
based on the trust I have established on you.
For your assistance in this transaction, I have decided to offer you 25%
percent commission of the total amount at the end of this business. The
security of this business is very important to me and as such,I would like
you to keep this business very confidential.If you are willing to assist me.
Please kindly reply me immediately. I shall expect your urgent response.
thanks.
