Subject: From Lynn Williams.
Assistance From Lynn Williams.
From: Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire West Africa.
I wish to solicit your help in migrating to you. My name is Lynn Williams.
I am the only daugther of Late General Frank Williams the former Director
of military inteligence and special acting General Manager of the Sieria
Leone Diamond mining coperation(SLDMC ).
I am contacting you to seek your good assistance to transfer and invest
(USD 10. million) belonging to my late father which is deposited in a bank
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 I am alone in a totally strange country without parents, relatives or
any body to care for me at my tender ages. Before my mother died, she told
me that my father deposited some money which he made from diamond sales
and contracts at this bank here in Ivory Coast and that i should pray and
find a trustworthy foreign business partner who would help me to transfer
and invest this money in profitable business venture overseas.
She told me to do this quickly so that i can leave Ivory Coast with my cousin
brother-Arthur who is here in the camp with me and, then settle down abroad.
She gave to me all the bank documents to prove thedeposit and then told
me that my father used my name as the only daugther to deposit the money
in the bank. She told me that this is the reason why we came to Ivory Coast.
My mother died afterwards. May her soul rest in perfect peace.
I have gone to the bank to make inquires about this money and I spoke with
the director of International remittance who assured me that the everything
is intact and promised to help me transfer this money to my foreign partners
bank account as soon as I provide my partners foreign bank account for them.
However, the director is very concerned because of my age, I am 23 years
and as such promised to help me and he would like to speak with my partner
to ensure that this money is invested wisely in only profitable business
because of his personal interest and sympathy for me.
If you are will to assist me, please let me know immediately and provide
me with your following information for bank here:
1. Your full names and address, tel/ fax
2. Name of Bank and addres, Tel/fax/telex
3. Account name and number and 4. swift code etc.
Please note that I can only offer you 10% of the total money as compensation
for your noble assistance in accodiance with my mothers advise. I am interested
in any profitable commercial venture which you consider very good in your
country and you would also get a school for me and cousin so that we can
finish our colledge education.
I am hoping to hear your urgent response to my private email address (lynn_will2000@yahoo.fr)so
that I can not look for another foreign partner.
Thank you and may God bless you and your dear family.
Yours sincerely
Lynn Williams.
