First, I must solicit your trust and strict confidence
in this transaction; this is by nature of the top-secret information I am
about to divulge to you.Having gotten your contact from a reliable source,
I beleive you will not betray me at the end of it. Though I did not
disclose the nature of business to the source i got your contact, bearing
in mind the confidentiality this business requires.
I am Mr Lawrence Amaji, personal aid and assistant to Mr.
Charles Taylor, who until recently was the president of the peoples
republic of Liberia and presently in political asylum in Nigeria. In view
of
our preparations for asylum over the months, I was saddled with
responsibility of finding a comfortable accommodations, ransportations and
movement of his personal effects, belongings
and properties taken away from Liberia to enhance his
comfortable stay in Nigeria. As his close aid, I was in charge of
packaging and movement of trunk boxes containing US Dollar notes and Diamonds
stone.
On the movement of these trunk boxes to Nigeria, I quickly removed Two of
the trunk box containing the sum of Twenty Five Million US Dollar
(USD25,000,000.00). This was believed by Charles Taylor, his family and
every security operatives to be lost on transit, since no one can really
have a legal backing of the fund, because Charles Taylor took away this
money from Liberian
Government.
On our arrival to Nigeria from Liberia on the 11th day
of August 2003, I quickly deposited this trunk box containing the money
with a security & finance company but registered it as a Jewelries and
personal documents for safe-keeping, pending on my readiness to come for
collection. I now wish to move this money to your country for investment
as my services to the deposed president Charles Taylor is coming to an
end since I can not continue staying in asylum with him in Nigeria. As I
cannot leave Nigeria without moving this fund to a safe and convenient bank
account, I have agreed to give you 40% of the money for your assistant in
moving this money to your country. Please keep this highly confidential
for
this is my only benefit for having served Charles Taylor for so many years.
You are free to read from any international newsprint about our asylum stay
in Nigeria, as I look forward to your favorable response and your interest
in assisting me.I would like you to view this website on our arrival to
