pLEASE REPLY US WITH THIS EMAIL; d.kone@tsamail.co.za THIS IS OUR TELEPHONE NUMBER: +225 06 33 88 14   Dear Brother/Sister In christ, My name is DAVID KONE and my sister's name is LINDA we are
the children of Late General BENSON KONE the former Director of
military inteligence and special acting General Manager of the
Sieria Leone Diamond mining coperatio( SLDMC ). I am contacting you to seek your good  assistance to transfer and invest USD 16 million belonging to my late father which is deposited in a bank in Abidjan.
This money is revenues from solid minirals and dimonds sale
which were under my fathers possession before the civil war broke out.
Following the break out of the war, almost all government offices
coperations and parastatals were attacked and vandalized. The SLDMC was loothed and burnt down to ashes,and diamonds worth millions of dollars was stolen by the rebel military forces who attacked my fathers office.
Many top government officials and senior army officers
were assasinated and my father was a key target because of
his very sensitive military possition and appointment in the
SLDMC.Regreatably my father was captured and murdered along with half brother in cool blood during a mid-night rebel shoot-out when our official residence in freetown was armbushed by Fordey Sanko the notorious rebel leader.
My mother sustainded very sever bullet injuries which resulted to her
untimely and painful death in a private hospital here in Ivory Coast.
Now we are alone in a totally strange country without parents,
relatives or any body to care for us at our tender ages.
Before our mother died, she told us that our father deposited some money which he made from diamond sales and contracts at this bank here in Ivory Coast and that we should pray and find a trust worthy
foreign business partner who would help us to transfer and invest this money in profitable business venture overseas. She told us to do this quickly so that we can leave Ivory Coast with our cousin brother-Arthur who is here in the camp with us and, then settle down abroad.
She gave us the bank document to prove the deposit and then
told us that my father used my name as the only son to deposit the
money in the bank. She told us that this is the reason why we came to Ivory Coast. My mother died after wards. May her spirit rest in perfect
peace. I have gone to the bank to make inquires about this money and I spoke with the Manager of International remittance who assured me that everything is intact and promised to help me to transfer this money to my foreign partners bank account as soon as I provide my partners foreign bank account for them.
However, the manager is very concerned because of my age. I am 22
years and as such advised that I should look for a matured person hat will  represent me at the bank.
If you are willing to assist us, please let us know immediately so that you  will arrange the transfer of the money to your account with
the  bank.Please note that I can only offer you 25% of the total
money as compensation for your noble assistance in accodiance
with my mothers advise.  I am interested in any profitable commercial venture which you
consider very good in your country and you would also get a school for me, my little sister and cousin so that we can finish our college education.
Please there is urgent need for the money to be transferred
to your account because of the political crises they are having in
Cote d'Ivoire now. I am hoping to hear your urgent response so that I can not look for anotherforeign partner.
Thank you and may God bless you and your dear family.
Yours sincerely
DAVID/LINDA KONE.
