Subject: REAL BUSINESS TRANSACTION
Dear Sir,
My name is Mr Kwasi Mensah, I hail from Ghana, 40 years, married with
three children. I am the Director of Global Security & Finance Services
Limited Ghana. I got the information concerning you from the foreign
department of our chamber of commerce and after due consideration, I
decided to contact you believing that by the Grace of God, that you will
not disappoint me over this deal.
I have been working with this company for over fifteen years. Within this
period, I have watched with meticulous precision how African Heads of
State and Government functionaries have been using Global Security &
Finance Ltd to move sums of money USD, Pounds Sterling, French Francs
(cash) to their foreign partners.
They bring in these consignments of cash and secretly declare the contents
as jewelries, gold, diamonds, precious stones, family treasures, and
documents etc. Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire (dead), Gen.Sanni Abacha of
Nigeria (dead), Fode Sankoy of Sierra Leone, Babangida of Nigeria, Felix
Houphet Boigny of Cote d"Ivoire (dead), Kanan Bedie of Cote d"Ivoire
(Abidjan) etc.
All these people have many consignments deposited with my office. Their
foreign partners, friends and relatives are claiming most of these
consignments. A lot of them are lying here unclaimed for as much as eight
years. Nobody will ever come for them because in most cases, the
Certificate of Deposit are never available to anybody except the
depositors or me since most of them are dead.
I have through the instrumentality of Global Security & Finance
re-deposited all these unclaimed and overstayed consignment into the Vault
Facility of a reputable Security Company in Accra Ghana too. Since the
inception of the year 2000, our company's management has changed the
procedure of claims of consignment, as soon as you are able to produce the
secret information as contained in the secret file of any consignment,it
will be released to you upon demand.
I have finalized every arrangement for you to claim consignment No. 1401,
1402 containing $30 Million. I will supply you with all the information
and documents that will facilitate your easy claim of the consignment.Upon
your positive reply of this letter, I will furnish you
with further details and information regarding the modus operandi for the
execution of the transaction.
This business is risk free as I have taken necessary preventive
measures.The mode of sharing will be (75-25) that is 75 for me and 25 for
you for your assistance, you can reach me by email and I will direct you
on what to do.Upon your positive consideration and reply of this letter I
shall give you a confidential telephone number with which we can discuss
the execution of the business.
Expedite action.
Yours faithfully,
Mr Kwasi Mensah
