Dear,
I pray God this message reaches you in wonderful spirit.I am making this contact with you based on trust and confidence irrespective of the fact that we have not met before and because of the nature of the situation I found myself. I am aborbakar Savimbi ,from Angola.l got your contact from www. and coupled with the information i gathered about you from the external trade department of my country.
There is an information I would like you to keep very confidential.There is sum amount of money my late father {former UNITA Rebel leader}General Jonas Malheiro Savimbi deposited a metal trunk box with a finance company for safe keeping few months before he was assasinated by
the Angolan Millitary force sometime last year.The squable happened as over the issue of mineral and allocation resource of diamond using his power and influence to smuggled diamond to the neighbouring countries in exchange for money and other valuable assets. Presently, I and my mother are living under (UNHCR) here in Senegal as political asylum.
The money in question is $6,500.000 Milllion U.S.Dollars.
I can\'t make the withdrawal of this consigment,because my father registered the beneficiary of the consignment as his (Foriegn Bussiness Partner ). But the documents of the deposit are with me. What I would want you to do, is to assist me to get the funds withdrawn from the finance company,have the same transfered to your position in your name and thereafter share the consigment by giving you 20% of the total sum as commission. Please there is no risk in this transaction. I will use the remain balance of the money for an investiment in your country for the future of my our family. If you are intrested, and can maintain the very confidentiality of this transaction,you e-mail me immediately for more clearification.
The Angola government through it\'s various agents has confisticated all my late father known properties since his death.You can find how and when my father was killed in the BBC news achives in the following news story:
