Subject: GOLD DUST
Dear Friend,
I am Jenkins O. Dunbar Jnr, the eldest child of Mr. Jenkins Dunbar (now
late, may his soul rest in Peace),
former Liberia minister for LAND, MINES AND ENERGY the ousted Charles
Taylor, former President of
Liberia in West African, who is currently in detention in Hague the
Netherlands to face war crime.
My family and I came to France to Seek political assylum.Before my father
died of a Protracted illness in
Ghana, he made a deposit of Gold Dust up to the tune of 2000 kilograms in a
Finance Firm in Europe for
the purpose of marketing it at the international market but could not
survive his illness and I have all the
Documents in my possession at the moment and the specification is Alluvial
Gold Dust ,2000 kilograms ,
22 carat plus (91.66%) or better,US$5,500 per kilogram with Ghana West
Africa as the origin of product.
During my father's tenure as the minister for Land, Mines and Energy, he
happens to be in charge of finance
on the former president's political ambition.
It was while on this privilege position that he kept in his custody this
commodity without the fore knowledge of
the President.
This is the reason I am asking for your assistance to contact the Finance
Firm in Europe where this Gold Dust
is kept to help us claim it by presenting yourself as the Legal Beneficiary
since we are going to send you the
documents for change of ownership as you are aware that I cannot do the
clearing now with my present
condition and as soon as you contact the Finance Firm,I will instruct our
family lawyer to meet you in Europe to
do all the documentation so you people could verify the quality and weight
of the Products and see if you could
help us clear and market it at an agreed percentage.
If you are interested at the proposal contact me through this email:
Jenkins100000@37.com
Best regards,
Jenkins O. Dunbar Jnr.
