From: Mr. john williams
Country: Liberia, West Africa.
Dear Friend,
Compliments of the day. First and foremost, I must
solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction
and I pray that my decision to contact you will be
given a genuine approval considering the fact that we
have not known each other before.Sir before i
porceed,i would wish to use this opportunity to
introduce myself to you . I am Mr.johnwilliams from
Liberia, West Africa.
I am the first son of Mr.Opong williams. My father had
a bullet shot by the rebels on his way traveling out
of my country with two of my younger sister's due to
present crisis that is occurring in our country
(Liberia). My sister's died on the spot while UN peace
keepers rescued my father, and he was taken to
hospital for medical treatment, were he later died.
Before his death he revealed to my mother about a
deposit he made with a security company in Ghana
containing $12.6 million, (twelve million and six
hundred thousand us dollars).
for safekeeping as family treasures. My father did not
disclose any of the content of the boxes to the
security company to avoid the officials from raising
eyebrows to the funds. Presently my mother and I are
in Ghana to notify the security company for the
claims, and we are staying in the refugee camp.
Therefore I want you to lecture me on how best we can
invest this money, because my father told me that it
is dangerous to invest this money in Africa to avoid
suspicions, and due to market instability coupled with
economic and political instability facing African
countries, considering all this fact and the high
economic growth in your country that is why we want to
invest in your country.
For your mutual assistance in actualizing this our
objective, my mother and I have agreed to offer you
25% of the total amount of the money. All the vital
documents covering the deposit and the ownership are
intact with our family attorney, which will be sent to
you on your notifying us of your willingness to
assist. Note I have never disclosed this to any person
apart from you, so you have to keep this transaction
as a top secret to yourself. Also i will want you to
forward across to me your direct Tel/Fax number for
more information about this transaction. I am waiting
for your urgent and positive feedback.
Email johnwilliams-12@yahoo.ca
Best regards,
Mr.john williams
