Dear Sir,
Salam alaykom wrahmatu Allah
You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. I got your contact courtesy of the Thailand chamber of commerce and Industry Business Directory here in Bangkok and decided to unfold our investment plan to you of which we are convince as to seek for your assistance and partnership.
I am Mrs Amina Musa Musharaf, a Sierra Leonine National and the wife of late Dr. Musa Musharaf Ankoh. My husband was the Deputy Minister for Mineral Resources and General overseer of Diamond and Gold Mines in the Kaneina District of Sierra Leone before the recent war in my country. Due to the out break of the war I lost him and my two kids to rebel attacks who invaded our residence in freetown and dragged out my husband and murdered him.
As a result of this I, and my only surviving Son escaped and eloped from the country with the help of the Ecomog Soldiers who immediately handed us over to the International Red Cross Society in Freetown, Sierra Leone, the red cross society finally arranged for our safe movement to the Refugee Rehabilitation Camp in Coite De Voire. But presently I have just arrived here Bangkok Thailand along with my Son Musa Musharaf (Jnr) through the help of United Nations and we have been granted asylum under the protection of United Nation High Commission on refugee.
Before this problem began in my country, My husband was able to secure some considerable amount of foriegn currencies which he got from his personal quota of sales of diamonds and some other mineral resources and secured also some of the raw mineral resources with the assistance of my Son (Musa) who have a BSC/MBA in engineering /Geology, working as a field technical engineer in the Sierra leonian Mineral resources Minning company before the civil took off war in country years ago. This treasures were kept safely in security boxes as the family tangible treasure in our family house away from his official residence .
When my husband sensed the insecurity and rumours of rebels invasion of the country's ruling authority, He moved this fund and treasures into a security firm sealed up as family treasure which no body knows the content except me and Son. The contents of one the security boxes is sum of $20million US Dollars Cash sealed with cotton and gun powder under family treasures with the firm.
Now with the documents of this deposit of the boxes into financial security firm the treasures was transffered to Thailand for remote safety away from Africa. This was why I and my Son decided to come to Thailand to claim the consignment from the financial security firm and then know the next thing to do with the valuables.
But we are finding out that situations here are not favourable to us and their policies so harsh. This is why we needed some one who we can trust so much because we dont know much about investments and who will assist us in the handling of all these processes.
We have no other option than to seek for your assistance good legal agreement, armed with all the legal document about the money you should now act as the beneficiary/my late husband business associate to enable us sign this valuables/treasures out from the security firm if possible transfer the fund to your country or any of the investment friendly country where possibly a small scale industry can be establish with such an amount under my supervision.
Having met you, I am obliged to open up to you hoping your assistance and advise will be of huge benefit in our realizing this dream, Insha Allah. Your role in this collaboration will be that you help me move this fund out of here to your country or a good place and our investing of the fund in a worthwhile profit orienting bussiness.
In view of your particapation, you will be rewarded by my parting with some percentage cash or being into a joint venture partnership. Other terms may be discussed as may be proposed by you and I am looking forward to your accepting this offer to help and to recommend some profiting business areas over there for my perusal and approval after which we plan on ways and avenues of moving this und out of here and our eventual meeting face to face to know each other better.
Thank you for your understanding and we are looking forward to having a successful business relationship with you. .
I anticipate an rapid response from you.
Sincerely Yours.
Mrs Amina M.M
