FROM THOMAS TARI
I am THOMAS TARI the first son of chief MARTIN TARI who was a former minister in war torn Côte d'Ivoire in West Africa Region.
My father had a bullet shot during the war by the rebel (west side boys) on his way traveling to Lusia a city after the capital along with my sister. My sister died at a spot while the U.N Peace Keeping Force rescued my unconscious father. He was later conveyed to Abidjan capital of Cote d'Ivoire for medical treatment, which he later died about three months now.
PLEASE VIEW THIS SITE FOR THE WAR STORY:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_war_in_C%C3%B4te_d'Ivoire
While he was on sick bed he confided in me and revealed to me about the boxes containing the sum of USD $7.3 million United State Dollars, which he deposited with a FINANCE AND SECURITY COMPANY IN EUROPE for safekeeping as personal belonging to avoid the Government of my country from knowing the details of the content.
Presently, I am here in NIGERIA,WEST AFRICA as a refugee with both sick mother and brother seeking for assistance before we came across your contact through a reliable source. But I did not disclose the details to any body for security reasons. I am therefore calling on you to assist us in taking away this fund from the security company
My late father told me that I should make all the necessary arrangement to move the fund out of the security company before it becomes late.
Based on the civil war in my country it is not possible for me to do any thing on my own, that is why I am looking for a partner that can assist me in collecting the funds and I will go into joint
business venture with him.I am trying to be very careful because this is about all I have left on earth and it is on it that I hope to make life
worthwhile ones again for myself, my mother and brother after all the troubles and trauma that followed the death and burial of my father.
Note: I have never disclosed this to any body except you. I will therefore want all my discussion with you in relation to this transaction to remain CONFIDENTIAL in other not to dent my image
especially now that we have a REFUGE STATUS.
As soon as you indicate your interest to assist us,i shall provide you with all the documents that you need to claim the funds on our behalf.
I want you to know that 30% of the total money stands as your commission as soon as the cash is out of the security company.I want this fund to move to your country where I intend to invest in very lucrative and secure venture and also to purchase a decent residential accommodation for the family and myself.
Your immediate response is highly needed for quick transaction. Endeavor to include your private Phone and fax to enable me reach you for more information.
YOU CAN CALL ME DIRECTLY ON:234 80 25951456
Best Regards,
THOMAS TARI
