Dear Esteemed Friend,
It is my pleasure to contact.
Please forgive my indignation for contacting you via this media. But i have no option but to write you this email. I know that my letter may come you as most unespected, but i pray God that you give me attention and hear me out with open mind.
My name is Miss.Elizabeth Akadim Amaka. i just graduated from the Cavalry school of Theology where I went for my Pastoral Training. I'm in a kind of situation here and I need your help. My father was one of the Generals who rulled with the former president Charles Taylor for 12 years of active service, and also my father was a business man who happens to own filling stations. My father died on 8th june 2002 in a bomb blast/explosion during the Liberian civil war before the former president Charles Taylor was forced to exile to pave way for peace talk with militant groups fighting the then government.
I am the only surviving heir of my father and sometime before the accident occurred my father deposited a huge sum of money in account worth (US$28 million) US dollars. Twenty Eight Million United States Dollars. As a government serving personel then, my father wisely deposited the fund with the name of a foreign company ''ONWARD MINES COMPANY LTD'' as the beneficiary oversea to avoid dictecting his identity that may attract undue attention to his person and finally result in a probity and accountability. My immediate problem right now is the safety of my life. because of my Step mother who do not have any issue for my dad, and right now she has collected all of my father's property including the filling stations that he left for me
because she was the general Manager before the death of my father. She recently found out the money my father lodge for me in trust and right now she want's me dead so she can have the money also.
This is the reason I'm writing you to help me to secure a foreign account where i can lodge this money without delay. My training in calvary school has made me to understand that all things worked out together for good to those who love God and are called according to his purpose. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. On your reply indicate your telephone and fax numbers for oral discussion.If you will do this for me 30% of the total fund will be yours, as I will be coming over to your country as soon as this money get into your account. I want to come to your country to invest my money and your advise as regards investment plan is needed. After your reply I will send to you the deposit documents which my late father used to deposit this fund with the bank in Ghana.
Most importantly, I am here in the United Nation's (UN) concentrated refugee camp in the border town between Ghana and Ivory Coast for the moment waiting for your arrival to effect the fund transfer so that i will travel back to your country with you at the successful completion of this transaction. I confidently await your urgent and kind response.
God Bless you and your family,
Sincerely,
Miss.Elizabeth Akadim Amaka.
