Compliment of the day. My name is Mr. John Williems Tailor. My father is a Brother to the former President of Liberia, Mr. Charles Taylor. My father has a Gold Mining Company in Liberia , during the time Mr.Chairls Taylor was in power and he has been supplying his Gold to the Giant Mining Company in Europe which the money raise from there was for the purchase of Ammunition during the war in Liberia . My father was killed by the Government Troop before the arrest of my Uncle Mr. Charles Taylor by the United Nation.
During my fathers incident I was shot by the Government troop when I was trying to intervened there operation with my fathers security group. I have a left tibia and fibular fracture on my left side of my leg, which I was operated upon, and a metal implant was put in my leg by a German trained Doctor in his private Orthopedic Hospital situated here in Ghana . Now, the metal plate was removed but the open wound is still there, I will want you to fly me to your Country for the treatment of this leg.
But before my Fathers death, he had deposited 500kg of Gold Bar (2 Boxes), and $125,000,000 USD (4 Boxes) in a trunk box and self kept it in the security company here in Ghana . Now the Six Boxes are in London with the diplomats who will deliver the boxes to you in your country, I want you to stand as the beneficiary to the boxes, so that the Diplomat will deliver the boxes to you in your country. 15% of the total amount will be for you. 5% of the money will be set aside for any expenses we will make during the shipment, While 80% of the money will be for me and my sister.
I will want you to contact the diplomat in London with this telephone number: 00447031902917, his name is Dr. Reginald Martins. Please contact him today so that you will know when he will arrive your country for the delivery, because I will not want him to keep my consignment in London to avoid extra Charges.
