Subject: With Due Respect, Please Reply Urgently! Dear, Friend
Dear Friend,BUSINESS PROPOSALI do hope that this letter do not come to you as a surprise.It was borne out of my desire to share a mutua business relationship with you. My name is,
Johnny Kwame, a,45yrs old,a Ghanaian national married with a wife and three children. I work as an Administrative Secretary to STANDARD SECURITY AND SERVICES LTD in Accra - Ghana. I joined the services of this company in 1991 as an office assistant. I decided to contact you believing that by the grace of God you will accept to be my partner in this business. I have been working with this company for nine years. Within this period, I have watched with meticulous precision how African Heads of States and government functionaries have been using STANDARD SECURITIES to move huge sums of money USD,Pound sterling, French France (Cash) to their foreign partners. They bring these consignments of money cash and secretly declare the contents as jewelleries, gold diamond, precious stones, family treasure, documents etc. gen. Sani Abacha of Nigeria (dead),Mobutu Sese Seko of Zarie (dead) Foday Sankoy of Sierra - Leone.Babangida of Nigeria etc.all these people have hundreds of consignments
deposited with STANDARD SECURITIES. Their foreign partners, friends and relatives, are claiming most of these consignments.A lot of them are lying here unclaimed for as much as 15yrs. No body, may ever come for them because in most cases,the documents of deposit are never available to any body except the depositors most of them are dead.Sometime last year (2004), STANDARD SECURITIES MANAGEMENT changed the procedure of claims of consignments. As soon as you are able to produce all the secret information as contained in the secret file of any consignment,it will be released to you upon demand. From our record, more than 120 consignments belonging to Gen Abacha/Mobutu Sese Seko,have been claimed in the past six months. This is why I am soliciting for your co-operation and assistance. Gen.Abacha has 85 consignments deposited with several names and codes. 35 have been claimed in the past six months. Since he died, his first son died also in a plane crash, the second son is facingtrial
for murder and mbezzlement, and the family members are under restricted arrest without communication. I have finished every arrangement for you to come and claim consignment No 1201 contain USD 22M. My duty is to supply you with all the information and documents by fax. You will deal directly with the management. The procedure is simple: You will apply officially to the Director of Operations of STANDARD SECURITIES for the release of consignment No 1201.They will demand some documents and secret codes. tell me, I will supply you with every detailed information and you will fax it to them. As soon as they confirm it to be correct.They will invite you for the collection.If you do not want to come toAccra, you can arrange with them to transfer the consignment to anywhere on agreement. No body will ever know I am involved in the deal except the lawyer who will write an agreement for us. I'll suggest upon conclusion we share 70 - 30. At the successful conclusion of the deal, you'll
arrange for me and my family to come over to your country. I assure you that the business has been hatched for years now, it is very secure and risk free. You can contact me on my e-mail, for further explanations and directives on the procedure.Reply to:jaykay45@coolgoose.comGod Bless YouYours Sincerely,Mr. Johnny Kwame.
