Attention: Harry Anslinger
Dear,
I am Barrister Nicholas Kwame of Nichy & Benny Associates based in Accra, Ghana. Your Contact was got through a diplomatic random search.
I have been Contacted secretly by the family of the deposed leader of Liberia, Charles Ghankay Taylor who is currently in dentation in the Netherlands facing trial on alleged war crimes. I was contacted to seek foreign participation in a deal that involves the movement of USD15 Million owned by the former President. The money was secured by him while in power long before he was asked to step down by the America Government and the International Community. Now this money has been mapped out for investment purposes in your company or your country.
Since the family of this former President cannot envisage the outcome of his trial, the family in desperation to secure a safe haven for this fund, has moved this fund out to Ghana and it is currently on the custody of a safe deposit company.
The incarceration of Charles G. Taylor in the Hague, Netherlands is just too much for his family to handle and they fear that he may not get fair hearing from the International Court. They fear for the life of the former President, and this informed their decision to have the funds moved to Ghana as you know is very peaceful in sub-region.
I am seeking your assistance to help this family have this funds moved to your country for investment. You will be given 25% of the sum as your commision, while 5% will be mapped out for expenses to be incurred in the process of transfer. All you need do is to fly down to Ghana, see the money and talk about it. All documentation to be changed in your name to shield identity of true ownership.
This business is totally risk free on your part. Answer back to me as soon as possible. Treat this confidentially and with level of secrecy, trust and we can accomplish this peacefully. Reply to email: nichkwame228@netscape.net
Thanks and God bless
Mr. Nicholas Kwame
