FROM:Ose John
Dear Sir,
CONFIDENTIAL I am a Sierra-Leonean businessman.I was formally into
the
importation and sale of medical equipment in my native
country,Sierra-Leone.My operational base was in Freetown,the
capital
city.
January 1999,when the second civil war broke out in
my country,my office and warehouse were burnt by the Revelutionary
United Front Rebels,who invaded Freetown.They alleged that my
company was an ally of the ruling government of President Teejan
Kabbah.In that attack,I lost all my properties and assets.I was
left with virtually nothing,except some money I had in the bank.
When the United Nations sent in troops to quell the
rebel's onslaught and there was a relative peace in Freetown,I
returned to business,but this time,Iinvested my resouces in the
Mining
of
Diamond which abounds in my country and I exported the Diamond
through
the
help of a third party-some Lebanese who were very much versed in
the
industry.
The returns I got from this business was quite good
and my life was gradually picking up again untill early last
year when the Sierra-Leonean government banned private
exploitation
of
the
Diamond deposit and also called on the United Nations to ban the
sale
of
Sierra - Leonean Diamond at the international market.The U.N
obliged
the
government and is now illegal to sell/buy Diamonds emanating from
Sierra-
Leone.Following
this action,the government of my country clamped
down on all busiessmen who had made fortunes selling Diamond.
Consequently,my newly acquired properties were
seized again and I had no option than to leave the
country,immediately.But I did that only after I was able to first
move
my
money out of the country.
I had $13,500,000(Thirteen Million five hundred thousand United
States
Dollars)in my domiciliary account in Freetown.I had to move the
money out of the Country through a very secret arranged
channel.
Now, the money is in Europe under the preservation,protection and
safe-keeping of a financial trust body.The help I am
now seeking are in two folds.Firstly,I want to claim the
$13,500,000 from the trust company,but I cannot leave West Africa
for
Europe,at this moment,because I am on self-exile in a neighbouring
west
African country from where I am trying to work out my travelling
documents
to enable me travel abroad.So I need someone who has the
capabilities
of
receiving the $13,500,000 in his account,from the trust
company.All
you
need
to have is a copy of the deposit certificate, and i will change
beneficiary
to your
name,empowering you as a recipient.Secondly,after the release of
this
money
must have been secured,I would also want you to help me get a
permanent
resident permit in any of the Western European countries (or any
good
Central
European country)or better still,United States or Canada.
For your efforts and the expenses you may incure in
the course of consummating this transaction,you will be entitled
to 15% of the total sum.But we shall have an agreement to the
effect that you WILL NOT take or spend out of the entire money(my
share). I will let you have the telephone
and fax numbers of my financial trust agent and the
name of the contact person in Europe on demand. Please,you can
only reach me for now through my e.mail address.
I must apologise for inconveniencing you and wait
to hear from you..I pray you understand my plight.
Best of regards.
Ose John
