Subject: I NEED YOUR ASSITANCE
Dearest Beloved one,
I write to intimate you of a matter that requires
an urgent attention. But briefly, I am ibrahim
ABUDU, 23yrs old son of late Dr. Abudu Ibrahim.
my father was thechairman/CEO of the
LIBERIAN national Gold & Diamond Mining Corporation.
It is my pleasure communicating with you for the
first time and believing that it will lead to a better relationship
between us. I also hope you will not impede this trust and
confidence I have in you.
I am sending this letter from LIBERIA where I have
an official refugee status with my younger sister Adama After
leaving our country due to an event that took place on Febuary
2003 which led to the arrest and detention of my father and six
other men after a faceoff with the LIBERIA government on allegation of
subversive activities and treasonable offences which was
nothing but a mere political persecution.
After fivemonths in the military detention camp my
father was announced dead by the government special press
release.
Though I do not know to what extent you are familiar with the
event and crisis in LIBERIA, however during the disturbanc and
prior to my father's death he gave me all the documents for the
secret loged he made in a fidiciary company here in Dakar. he
loged in ?15.2 Million dollar, as personal effect .
However I have gone to the bank to confirm the
deposit and establish ownership, please I need your assistance
urgently in moving this fund abroad for investment,when the fund
is properly secured we will jointly invest in any business you
consider profitable.
I will be glad for your resolved assistance, I will kindly
appreciate if we can talk and emerge words with
action. With all honesty to the stated data in my message,i assure
you of the genuity of this proposal.
I will particularly be happy if you can handle this
transactionin
the most confidential manner since the rest of my
life solely
depends on this fund.
It is the fear of betrayal from anyone around us
here that
confirms my decision to contact a neutral individual
like you, and
I want you to educate me on investment potential in
your country
since I would not like to invest or stay in any of
the African
country,except otherwise.
I will not hesitate to give you 15% or negotiable of
the total sum
for your assistance. So if you will be able to
assist me, please
do urgently reply me for further clarification and
confirmation .
Thank for your anticipated co-operation, May God
bless you.
Your Sincerely,
Ibrahim Abudu
