Dear Friend,
Compliment of the season,
With due respect and humility we write this proposal which we believe would
be of great interest to you. We wish to solicit your help in migrating to
your country and investing our funds. Briefly, we are Sierra Leonean
National and i am the wife of late Dr SIMON MUZAZAH and Until his death,
till his dealt my husband was the General overseer of the Diamond and Gold
Mining Corporation in Kanema, Sierra Leone. On April 6 2000 the military
forces loyal to the Government of Ahmed TIJAN KABBAH invaded the Diamond
and Gold mine and assassinated my husband they
mistaking him for his brother MIKE MUZAZAH who is the deputy to the leader
of the revolutionary United Front (RUF ) FODAY SANKOH. When the news
reached us, i and my son hurried gathered some valuables in our family villa
and escaped for our dear life.

husband made in a security company in Abidjan Côte d'Ivoire and in Europe
respectively. He deposited in Abidjan
US$ 10.5 M ( Ten Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S Dollars) contained in
1 Trunk Box. In Europe 2 Trunk Boxes containing USd$20(twenty Million U.S
Dollars each) my son name JOHNSON was used for the Deposit of these boxes
containing family valuables. He did not disclose the real contents of the
box to the security company here in Abidjan/Europe. Rather, he declared
the deposit as Family
Valuables for security reasons. This is the money he made from
the sale of Gold and diamonds during his time as the General overseer.
We are soliciting for your assistance to help us retrieve the fund from
the security company and
lodged it in your Bank Account. We need your sincere assistance to move
this
