Dear Sir/Madam,

Dear Sir/Madam
Dear Sir
I am Mr.Johnson Bekele and my sister is Miss Rose Bekele, we are the children of late Chief Sam Bekele from Sierra Leone.
I am writing you in absolute confidence primarily to seek your assistance to transfer our cash of thirty Million Dollars ($30,000.000.00) now in the custody of a private Security trust firm in Europe the money is in trunk boxes deposited and declared as family
valuables by my late father as a matter of fact the company does not know the content as money, although my father made them to under stand that the boxes belongs to his foreign partner.
Source of the money:
My late father Chief Sam Bekele, a native of Mende District in the Southern province of Sierra Leone, was the General Manager of Sierra
Leone Mining co-operation (S.L.M.C.) Freetown.According to my father, this money was the income he got from Mining Co-operation's over draft and minor sales.
Before the peak of the civil war between the rebels forces of Major Paul 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 thats talking about my mother, my little sister and myself to be evacuated to Abidjan Cote d' Ivoire with the CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT he made with a security firm in Europe through the aid of U.N evacuation team.
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 target looted and it was destroyed. My father including other top Government functionaries were attaked and killed by the rebels in November 2000 because of his relationship with the civilian Government of Ahmed Tejan Kabbah.
As a result of my father's death , and with the news of my uncle's involvement in the air crash in January it dashed our hope of survival.
The untimely deaths caused my mother's heart failure and other related complications of which she later died in the hospital after we have spent a lot of money on her early this year . Now my 18 years
old sister and myself are alone in this strange country suffering without any care or help. Without any relation, we are now seeking political assylum here in Holland.
Our only hope now is in you and the boxes deposited in the Security Firm,To this effect, I humbly solicit your assistance in the followings ways.
1. to assist me claim this boxes from the security
Firm as our beneficiary
2. to transfer this money (USD$30M) in your name to your country
3. to make a good arrangement for a joint business investment on our behalf in your country and you, our Adviser/ Manager For your assistance, I have agreed with my younger sister that 20% of the total amount will be for your effort and another 10 % to cover all
the expenses that may incure during the business transaction, Last, I urge you to keep this transaction strictly confidential as no one knows our where about.
Please as you show your willingness, Forward to us your full name, address and Tel/ Fax numbers, to me via my private email address.
Thanks.
May God bless you as you assist us.
Mr.Johnson Bekele

TweetMy sister got that same email about a week ago. Amazing that they really think someone would do it.

[Auriflex]

TweetSo you're all saying I shouldnt have given them my savings account #'s? Oh boy.

[Time4Growth]

TweetIt's a scam. There are all kinds of variations.

[ElCid]

TweetThis scam has been going on for years. People have actually lost thousands of dollars on this. It targets one of our worst traits- greed. I suggest you forward to the police or in the alternative, I think MSNBC has a link to send these types of scams and they try and alert the right folks.
