Good day and compliments,
My name is Jerry Williams . Nationality sierra leone. I am 23 years old, a
student. I lost my father years back. He died during the political crisis in
my country. My late father was one of the directors under Tijan Kabbah
government. My mother is aged she is 62 years now an old woman. We are living
in Coted'ivoire since past six months. It is my desire to write from my heart
hoping that you will not betray us.
My father diverted some huge of money which he deposited with a security firm
in this country when he was alife, infact in a brief introduction. All the
information will be given to you when I hear from you. This money totalling
US$ 25,000,000.00 (Twenty five million united states dollars ) now we are
seeking for a trusted person who will receive this money into his/her account
for onward investment. However, what we needed from you is your good
assistance in helping us transferring the said sum to your account since we
are inexperienced in the world of business, thats the reason why we are
asking for your support. All documents concerning the deposit may be given to
you for your verification. We really need to move the fund out of Africa to
abroad. I have decided to give you 30% of the total sum for your kind
assistance. The world is full of bad people please can you prove your
genueity to us for us to have you as a partner.
Sorry i am not saying you are bad person but consider that this is money and
how the money was gottenIt is inheritance and last hope. Show you're intrest
and we proceed on the next step of action. Africa is no longer conducive for
us to stay.
We look forward for your urgent reply.
Our best regards,.
Jerry Williams and mother.
