Dear ,
With due respect and humility I write you this
proposal which I believe would be of great interest to
you especially if you are conversant with
events in SIERRA LEONNE. (west Africa) I am George
Kamba, the first son of DR Alexander Kamba,
former Finance Director Sierra Leonne gold and diamond
co-operation.Prior to the civil crisis in my country,
that led to the life imprisonment of my dear father
that leads to his death.
During my father's tenure as the director of finance
of diamond mining corporation, there is this sum of
$29.Million USD arising from over invoiced contract
payment for the contractors that supplied ammunition
to our country Sierra Leone.
My father succeeded in diverting this money to a
security Firm in Abidjan where he deposited the money as belongingto his
foreign partner. Before he had the chance of taking the two boxes containing
the money from the security firm, he was arrested and jailed for life in
our country, that lead to his death.Before then,he directed me to where
to collect some documents concerning the deposit of $29 musd in security
firm here in Abidjan,Cote d'Ivoire Republic , which he (my father) told
them that belonged to his foreign partners.presently;I and my little sister
linda are now in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire,where we are granted political stay
as a refugee, I have confirm the deposit of the boxes with the security
firm, thereby I am contacting you to assist me and act as my fathers foreign
partner and help me claim out this money with the security firm,as my late
father's foreign partner.
I cannot control this money since i am a boy of
20years and my younger sister is 17 years. Meanwhile,
the deposit has been confirmed.I want to leave Côte
d'Ivoire entirely with this money for investment in
your country because of the instable political
situation and mostly for the future of my education
and my sister as we do not want to go back to our
country because of security reasons.We are asking for
your help to bring this money to your country for
investment due to my inability to do this solely on my
own.
l will be willing to offer you 25% of the total money
or enter into negotiation with you as regards your
commission for assisting me. Do not hesitate to write
me on the below e mail adress immediately you receive
this message to enable us proceed in Ernest towards
concluding this transaction.Please ensure that no one
know about this money as it is only my family and
yourself know about this money. Please write us with this private e mail
address kambageorge06@yahoo.com
May God bless you as you assist me.
