Subject: Your assistance
Dear Friend,
I got your contact in my search for a trustworthy foreigner that will assist
me in my present predicament, as I don't even know whom to trust so I
allowed the spirit of God to lead me.
Firstly let me introduce my self. I am Walter Kama Savimbi, son of the late
leader of the National Union of the total Liberation of Angola (U.N.I.T.A)
who died on the February 22 2002 by the bullet of the ruling government
troop. My late father was controlling the northern part of Angola as a rebel
leader which is blessed with a huge deposit of diamonds. This my late father
used to his advantage, mining and selling these diamond to foreign
individuals and government in return for huge amount of US Dollars and
ammunitions that is part of the reasons, coupled with determination why he
was able to sustain his troop for 30 years of civil war.
Before his untimely death He left a huge amount of money which amount to
$24M ( Twenty Four Million United State Dollars) he kept the money under my
care in case of eventuality so that the future of me and our family will be
secured.
But when we heard the bad news of his death, his trusted aid moved me and my
younger brother out of our hiding because we were the next family target
after his death, we traveled in a fishing boat to and board in Lome, The
Republic Of Togo where I am making this contact. The money has been
coded/defaced and secretly deposited in a security company and declared as
"FAMILY TREASURE" for onward courier to reliable foreigner in an advanced
economy like your country for safe keep.
I am offering you 30% of the total money if you will assist me to move this
money out of TOGO as the foreign beneficiary, while I and my family will
have 70%. I am assuring you that this transaction is risk free as we have
put all the logistics in place to make it successful, all we need from you
is your co-operation and sincerity of purpose.
I am recovering from a traumatic attack since the death of my father. I will
wait for your response before I can open up the modus operandi of this
transaction to you in detail.
Thanks for your understanding,
Yours in Business,
Walter Kama Savimbi
