Dear Friend
I am pastor. Simion George, a revolutionalist / human
right activist , I formerly served under SOS children
welfare organaisation , an NGO for less privellaged in
Liberia during the regime of former ousted terrorist ,
President Charles Taylor.
When I was formerly serving in Liberian , during the
outbreak of the recent war by the rebels, about US$
18.5
million was carefully moved outside the country in
collaboration by my late boss , Mr Johnson S. Boiley
who
was then the general oversea of this non governmental
Organisation . Some of us were arrested, detained and
properties worth millions of dollars were confiscated
/
destroyed during the crisis.
For safe keeping, this fund has been in custody of a
Security / finance firm in Accra Ghana where it was
secretly deposited by my late boss before his death.
Since I am in possession of some of the deposit
documents
,I have started negotiations on how to transfer / move
the
said funds to abroad for own benefit .
I and my loved family are now living in Accra Ghana as
refugees since the outbreak of the rebellion war in my
country .
It is my humble pleasure knowing you and more
especially to
transact a jointly investment with you in your country
, in
this case any proposed business of your choice will be
considered and moreover I will like to surport in the
work of God with sum of the fund the way I could
as well as helping the less previlage people. I will
accept whole
heartedly and willing to provide these funds to move
ahead
and will appreciate your interest to work with me as
partner, in trust , understanding and in confident
