FROM: MR PETER .B. BOATENG DEAR SIR I AM MR PETER .B. BOATENG THE FIRST SON OF DR. RICHARD BOATENG WHO WAS THE MINISTER OF FINANCE IN SIERRA LEONE BUT WAS KILLED DURING THE CIVIL WAR. I RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM A RELIABLE SOURCE WHO DESCRIBED YOUR COUNTRY AS BEING ECONOMICALLY CONDUCIVE FOR INVESTMENT AND HER PEOPLE AS TRANSPARENT AND TRUSTWORTHY TO ENGAGING BUSINESS WHICH PREMISE I WRITE YOU. DURING THE COURSE OF LEAVING THE COUNTRY TO TAKE REFUGE IN NIGERIA, MY MOTHER MRS. GRACE BOATENG BROUGHT TO MY NOTICE THE FACT THAT BEFORE MY FATHER’S DEATH, HE HAD THE SUM OF TWENTY EIGHT MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS (US$28,8M) WHICH HE KEPT AWAY FROM THE REBEL LEADERS DURING THE COURSE OF THE WAR. THIS FUND WAS SUPPOSED TO BE USED FOR A VERY IMPORTANT GOVERNMENT PROJECT BEFORE THE OUTBREAK OF THE WAR. BUT WHEN THE WAR BROKE OUT, THE REBEL LEADER DEMANDED THAT THIS FUND BE GIVEN TO HIM BUT MY FATHER WHO TRIED TO MAKE HIM UNDERSTAND THAT THIS FUND HAD BEEN MOVED OUT OF THE COUNTRY GOT KILLED BECAUSE OF HIS REFUSAL TO RELEASE THE FUND. MY MOTHER AS THE ONLY PERSON WHO KNOWS ABOUT THIS FUND QUICKLY MAKE AN ARRANGEMENT WITH A RED CROSS RELIEF WORKER WHO USED HIS OFFICIAL VAN TO MOVE THIS MONEY TO LUNGI AIR PORT IN FREETOWN, ALTHOUGH HE DID NOT KNOW THE REAL CONTENT OF THE BOX. PRESENTLY, THIS FUND HAS BEEN DEPOSITED WITH A SAFE RELIABLE SECURITY COMPANY IN ACCRA GHANA WHERE I WAS ONLY GIVEN TEMPORARY ASYLUM. I DO NOT WANT TO INVEST THIS MONEY IN ACCRA GHANA DUE TO UNFAVORABLE ECONOMIC CLIMATE AND CLOSENESS TO MY COUNTRY. AS A RESULT, I KEPT THE MONEY IN A CUSTOM BONDED WAREHOUSE WITH THE SECURITY COMPANY. SO THAT I CAN NOT LAY MY HANDS ON IT UNTIL IT GETS TO YOUR COUNTRY, WHERE I WILL COMMENCE INVESTMENT. THE ONLY ASSISTANCE WE NEED FROM YOU WHICH I BELIEVE YOU WOULD DO FOR US ARE THE FOLLOWING:- 1. MAKE IMMEDIATE ARRANGEMENT TO TAKE THE DELIVERY OF THE CRATE (FUND) AT THEIR EUROPE OR AMERICAN COMMISSION AGENTS. 2. ASSURANCE FROM YOU THAT YOU WILL NOT SIT ON OUR SHARE WHEN THIS FUND GETS TO YOUR COUNTRY. ACCORDING TO MY MOTHER’S INSTRUCTION YOU SHALL BE ENTITLED TO 20% OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT WHILE THE PRINCIPAL SUM WILL BE INVESTED IN A VIABLE BUSINESS VENTURE WITH YOUR ADVICE. MOST IMPORTANTLY, I WILL LIKE TO BUY A PERSONAL HOUSE WHERE I, MY MOTHER AND OTHER BROTHERS AND SISTERS WILL RESIDE. UPON CONFIRMATION OF YOUR INTEREST TO HELP US AS OUR FOREIGN PARTNER TO CLAIM THE CRATE FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY ON OUR BEHALF AT ANY OF THEIR COMMISSION AGENT CLOSER TO YOU, I SHALL FURNISH YOU WITH THE DETAILS OF THE MOVEMENT OF THE CONSIGNMENT TO BE SCHEDULED IN YOUR FAVOUR BY THE SECURITY COMPANY PREPARE AN AIRWAY BILL AND TAG THE CONSIGNMENT IN YOUR FAVOUR. YOUR PRIVATE FAX AND TELEPHONE NUMBERS ARE NEEDED TO ENHANCE THE SPEEDY CONCLUSION OF THIS TRANSACTION (OUR ONLY HOPE IN LIFE NOW) URGENTLY. KINDLY TREAT AS URGENT AND CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY THROUGH MY E-MAIL ADDRESS OR TEL:234-1- 7591583 ABOVE YOURS FAITHFULLY MR PETER .B.
