Dear Sir,

Based on the information and recommendation I got about quick growth of business, investment and commerce in your country, I deemed it necessary to write and inform you about my interest to invest in any viable venture in joint partnership with you.

I am Mr. Nick Brown the first son of Chief Edward Bankole Brown of mende tribe in LIBERIA.

On the 19th Feb, 2003 my father was murdered by some rebel group on the accusation that he is a great sponsor and in support to restore the democratically elected President of Charles Taylor.Of which if you are a good listener to B.B.C. or any other international redio TV station you will be awer of the war crisis in my country now and how masses of people are dieing in blood shield Almost half of our palace was burnt.

Fortunately I was not in the place when they raided the palace, my father married 2 wives with 4 children two of the wives, with my 3 brothers where murdered in cold blood while i escape the incident with bullet wounds on my right leg at the moment where the remaining families are I don't know their way about whether they are alive or not.

Right now I am left alone since the sudden assassination of my father the family has been displaced and totally disorganized left with noting.Early last year my father came back from travel and gave me some document to keep for him as usual he told me that he deposited 40.5million USD and some killos of gold in a trunk box which he deposited with a private security company in Abidjan Côte d'Ivoire as a family treasure.

I have make an arrangement with two peace keeping force to help me to move out of the country, however they have promise to move me out of LIBERIA successfully, to Abidjan Côte d'Ivoire . I have called the telephone of the security company and the director confirm to me that the box is still in the their custody.

I will like you to please reply as soon as possible as i will like to stay close with the security compay where this box was deposited here in Cote d' Ivoire i will instruct the security company to transfer the box to you in your country.
