Subject: plea i need your help
Good Day to you,
How are you doing today? I pray you find peace as you read this mail and
find a place in your heart to help me and my brother. Let me start by
introducing my self by saying that we are the children of Late Chief Voke
.S. Daniel from Liberia. He is also the former minister for Orientation in
our country and also a Gold dealer in Liberia and Ghana. I will like to let
you know why I have write you this mail.
I lost my Father and My Mother in a Air crash on their Gold trip to
Colombia, and my only younger brother Timothy is 16 due to the war in
Liberia we have no other option to run for our dear lives and there was no
one to take care of our self the only money left with us got finished when
we came to Ghana to see if we could claim the deposited Gold but the
security company refused to release it to us that unless we come with a
foreign beneficiary, We now ended staying in the Bujumbura Refugee camp in
Ghana. It was after two years later we found the (NAELA) National Academy of
Elder Law Attorneys in the Refugee camp in Ghana looking for those who their
late parents has a deposited funds with the security company in Ghana and my
late father's name was in the list that is where I found our family Lawyer
who is now here to help with all the legal documents covering the deposited
Gold.
Before the Death of my father he is a Cocoa and Gold merchant In Liberia
.He had Two Boxes of Gold Consignment Each Boxes Contain 200 kg, Which he
deposited in the Security Company in Accra, Ghana West Africa. he is about
taking them from the security company to China for a business deal, stated
on a letter which he gave to the Lawyer.
This is why I have contact you to help me claim this Two Boxes of Gold
Consignment is over ($183 million) If there is any way you can help then i
am promising you (35%).As soon as you write me I will give you the next
information on what to do to get the Boxes delivered to you in your country
as our foreign beneficiary.
Please I want you to keep this transaction confidential don't disclose to
anyone because I guess my late father was killed because of his wealth and
they also wanted us dead too so that they can claim our inheritance from us.
Please get back to me.
yours faithfully
Jennifer segun
