Dearest One in the Lord God Bless You,
It is my good pleasure to meet you today through the contact of email despite we have not seen before, i believe it is the direction of Almighty GOD.
I am Gabriel Rufus Chanson, the son of late former minister of national security in Liberia Dr.Lazarus Chanson, who was killed by Charles Taylor in the Liberian war year 2003,Presently i am seeking refuge in Ghana . I inherited a total sum of 9.8 MILLION UNITED STATE DOLLARS, from my late Father, which he deposited with a Security company here in ACCRA GHANA . Being that this part of the world experiences political crises time without number, there is no guarantee of lives and property. I cannot invest this money here any long; despite it has been my late Fathers plan.
I want you to do me a favor to receive this money to your safe account in your country as the beneficiary, i promise to compensate you with15% out of this money after the safe transfer, I have plans to invest this money in continuation with the investment vision of my late Father, but not in this place again rather in your country.
Recently my doctor has discovered that my health keeps going down because of my continuous high blood pressure condition which started after the death of my late Father so i am seeking this assistance from you to enable me come over to your country to receive a good medical treatment and if possible secure a good education as i am still interested to continue my education, Please if you can promise me to be sincere and to take care of me as your own son or brother then we can move and negotiate with the security company to transfer the Boxes to you in your country.
I have the vision of going into real estate and industrial production. This is my reason for contacting you. Please if you are willing to assist me I will like you to send me your contact information such as stated below,
1. Contact postal address.
2. Your telephone/fax number.
3. Your occupation.
4. Your private email address.
Once i confirm this I will submit it officially to the Security company as my late Fathers foreign business partner so that the Security company will transfer the Box of money to you in your country and i will join you over there. Please indicate your interest in replying soonest.
Thanks and best regards.
Gabriel Rufus Chanson
