Attention;
After much consideration and prayer I have decided to tell you all about myself because I believe you can be of Assistance to me and my faith and believe in God led me to you I am the only son of my father, late (Akim Mohammed Sali) from Darfur, In Republic of Sudan.
My father was a wealthy Cocoa and Gold merchant in SUDAN before his untimely death. After his business trip to Accra, Ghana to Negotiate on a Cocoa business a week after he came back from Accra he was assassinated with my mother by Arab Militia, Which my mother died instantly but my father died after five days in the hospitals.Before the death of my father, he disclosed to me that he Deposited the sum of (US$6.5) Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars in Ghana commercial Bank in Accra Ghana, and the Documents covering the Existence of the Fund is presently with me and he advice me to be wise and brave, that I should not invest this money in Africa because of the rebels against the entire family.
Right Now I am in Accra Ghana and I have succeeded in locating where the Fund is in Accra, Ghana and also confirmed the Existence of the Fund. I want you to Assist me in receiving this Fund in your foreign Account as a Trustee and New Beneficiary of the Fund in oversea, and also use it for an investment purpose. To be a guardian and also help me with Accommodation in your country because Right now i can not go back to my country Darfur Sudan because of the Conflicts Between the Black Sudanese Rebels and Arab Militia also known as Janjaweed as you can see or hear it in the News or you can find out yourself for more information at WWW. CNN. COM/SUDAN
