Dear Sir,
WITH THE BEST COMPLIMENTS OF THE YEAR,
I wish to solicit your help in migrating to your country, Our names is Michael/Linda
Lamine are the children of Late Dr SIMON LAMINE the former Director of
military inteligence and special acting General Manager of the Sieria Leone
Diamond mining coperation(SLDMC )
Before our mother died, she told us that our father
deposited 10.5 million US dollars in a 2 trunk boxes in my MICHAEL as containing
family valuables money so we are contacting you to seek your good ssistance
to transfer and invest USD10,5 million belonging to my late father which
is deposited in a Security Company in Abidjan. This money is revenues from
solid minirals and dimonds sale which were under my fathers possession before
the civil war broke out.
Following the brake out of the war, almost all government offices, coperations
and parastatals were attacked and vandalized. The SLDMC was loothed and
burnt down to ashes, and diamonds worth millions of dollars was stolen by
the rebel military
forces who attacked my fathers office.
Many top government officials and senior army officers were assasinated
and my father was a key target because of his very sensitive military possition
and appointment in the SLDMC. Regreatably, my father was captured and murdered
along with half brother in cool blood during a mid-night rebel shoot-out
when our official residence in freetown was armbushed by Fordey Sanko the
notorious rebel leader.
My mother sustainded very sever bullet injuries which
resulted to her untimelyand painful death in a private
hospital here in Ivory Coast.
Now we are alone in a totally strange country without
parents, relatives or any body to care for us at our tender ages.
That we should pray and find a trustworthy foreign business partner who
would help us to invest this money in profitable business venture overseas.
She told us to do this quickly so that we can leave Ivory Coast with our
cousin brother-Arthur who is here in the camp with us and,then settle down
abroad. She gave us all the Security Company documents to prove the deposit
and then told us that my father used my name as the only son to deposit
the money in the
Security Company .She told us that this is the reason why we came to Ivory
Coast. Our mother died afterwards. May her spirit rest in perfect peace.
I and my sister have gone to the Security Company to make inquires about
this deposit and we spoke with the Company concerning the deposit that
we will come for the boxes once we have a foreign partner.
If you are will to assist us, please let us know
immediately so that we will send you all the documents concerning the deposit.
Please note that we can only offer you 25% of the total money as compensation
for your noble assistance in accodiance with my mothers advise. We are interested
in any profitable commercial venture which you consider very good in your
country and you would also get a school for us, my little sister and cousin
so that we can finish our colledge education.
We am hoping to hear your urgent response so that I can not look for another
foreign partner.
Thank you and may God bless you and your dear family.
Yours sincerely
Michael and Jean Lamine.
