Dear Sir
This letter may come to you as a surprise because we have not met. The decision
to write you is out of a sincere desire to establish a business/mutual
relationship with you. I got your contact through the international trade and
commerce chamber (ITCC) in Madrid.
My name is Mr. Ali Sesay Karimu, the son of John Karimu (the former
Secretary of state for finance) who was killed and mutilated by the
military junta led by Major Paul Koroma after over-throwing the elected
government of President Tijan Kabba. Though, I do not know to what extent you
are familiar with events and disturbances in Sierra-Leone but it has
consistent features in the CNN, BBC news bulletins. The pressure of war drove
the rest of my family out of Sierra-Leone into exile in Spain where we have
been living under political asylum for the past 3 years.
Sadly, my mother died of cancer 3 months ago and was buried in Madrid. Prior to
her death, she gave me a certificate for a secret deposit that my father made
in a security company in Europe (destination will be disclosed later for
security reason). The deposit which is worth $32,000.000 (Thirty-two Million
U.S. Dollars) was money set apart for government propaganda against the rebel
forces. He made the deposit in his name with the hope of converting it to his
personal use at the end of the war but was killed as a result of his opposition
to the rebel forces when the conflict intensified. I have contacted the
Security Company to confirm the deposit and establish ownership. The money was
however deposited as family treasure.
Due to the death of my mother and the continued hostility in Sierra-Leone, I
have decided to solicit the assistance of an honest and trustworthy person or
company that will assist in investing the money. I cannot do it alone due to
my present political status and total ignorance of the business world. You will
be given a negotiable percentage of the money at the end of the transaction.
If you are honest, trustworthy and interested in the above proposal,
contact me immediately through the number/email address indicated above for
more details. You must maintain absolute confidentiality to ensure success.
Please, indicate your personal Tel./Fax nos. when replying.
Regards,
Ali Sesay Karimu.
