Dear respected one,
Permit me to unveil this business proposal to you which I hope will meet
you in good faith.
I am Williams Mbomah, the son of Dr Daniel Mbomah who was a managing director
to a leading export company in the Ivory coast. On the 24th September 2004,
my father attended the annual general meeting of all the export companies
in the country and unfortunately, he was poisoned by his business rivals
and later died in the hospital. But, before the death of my father after
staying in hospital bed for three days, he told me being the only child,
that he deposited US$12.000.000 in a bank here in the country with my name
as beneficiary and he advised me to look for a co-beneficiary abroad to
transfer this fund for investment because he made a provision for foreign
partner for security reasons.
Presently, the members of the extended family have claimed the export company
and my father's business rivals who know about this fund, are after me,
in other to claim this money which was the reason why my father was poisoned.
Based on the fact that i do not have the know how in international businesses
of this sort, I hereby solicit your urgent assistance as the co-beneficiary
to transfer this fund to a safe and secure bank account abroad as I want
you to furnish me with this private information of yours.
1)Your residential address.
2)Your Phone and fax numbers.
3)Other personal information.
Please, I do not want neither a third party nor publicity of any kind in
this business transaction for security reasons, i expect that you devote
your time for the completion of this transaction, your efforts and because
there are some changes that are to be made as was stated on the agreement,
it might be capital intensive.
I am thanking you in advance for your anticipated co-operation, I await
your immediate positive response.
Best regards,
Williams Mbomah.
