Miss FAITH WILSON
Abidjan (Ivory Coast)
West Africa,
Dearest One,
Thank you for your mail you sent to me, i like everything about you.
Please I am FAITH WILSON, the only daughter of late chief Paul Wilson from Sierra Leone. My sources of your contact gave me the courage and confidence to rely on you. I am writing you in absolute confidence primarily to seek your assistance to transfer our cash of Fourteen million, Five hundred thousand dollars ($14,500,000) now in the custody of a Bank here in Abidjan to your private account pending our arrival to your country.
SOURCE OF THE MONEY
My late father, Chief Paul Wilson, a native of mende district in the Northern Province of Sierra Leone, was the general Manager of Sierra Leone mining co-operation (S.L.M.C.) Freetown. According to my late father. This money was the income accrued from mining co operation's over draft and minor sales.
Before the peak of the civil war between the rebels forces of Major Philip Koroma and the combined forces of ECOMOG peace keeping operation that almost destroyed my country, following the forceful removal from power of the Civilian Elected President Ahmed Tejan Kabbah by the rebels. My father had already made arrangement for his family, my mother, my little sister and myself to be evacuated to Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire with our personal effects and the box containing team. My father deposited the fund for the safe custody until after the war when he will join us.
During the war in my country, and following the indiscriminate looting of public and Government properties by the rebel forces, the Sierra Leone mining coop. was one of the targets looted and destroyed. My father including other top Government functionaries were attacked and killed by the rebels in November 1999 because of his relationship with the civilian Government of Ahmed Tejan Kabbah. As a result of my father death, and with the news of my uncles involvement in air crash in January, dashed our hope of survival.
The untimely deaths caused my mothers heart failure and other related complications of which she later died in the hospital after we must have spent a lot of money on her. Now my 16-year-old sister and I are alone in this strange country suffering without any care or help. Without any relation, we are now like refugees and orphans. Our only hope now is in fund our father deposited in the bank to this effect,
I humbly solicit your assistance in the followings ways. To assist me claim this fund from the bank as co-beneficiary. Transfer this money in your name to your country. To make a good arrangement for a joint business investment on our behalf in your country and you, the care taker. To secure a college for my little sister and my self in your country to further our education. And to make arrangement for our travel with you to your country after you have transferred this fund.
For your assistance, I beg to concede 20 % of this money to you for your efforts assistance.
Thanks and Best regards
FAITH WILSON
