In a brief introduction, I am Mohamed Deen Kamara the son of Captain Usman Kamara the former national security adviser to the former Head of State Major Paul Jonny Koromah of the Republic of Sierra Leone.

I am writing you this letter at the time life seems to have reached it end for my Mother and me. My Father who is now under arrest by the authority of my country, has mandated my Mother and me to source for a credible and reliable person overseas who can assist us in this transaction, my Father’s problem is as a result of secret but serious investigation into cases of embezzlement and illegal mining of diamond that was being carried out by public officers during Major Koromah’s administration, according to the press release made by the present government that more than US$2.7 billion dollars was looted from the country’s treasury.

Right now my Father is afraid that there exist a possible trace to US$14 million dollars that he deposited with my name in a security organisation in Abidjan Cote d’Ivoire where it was registered and declared asfamilytreasures and artefacts. Hence he decided that we should source for a foreign business associate who would assist in investing this fund, please you are being contacted to assist in transferring this money out of Africa to your account abroad for a joint investment.

We are presently in Abidjan Cote d’Ivoire for this transaction and hope to hear from you immediately for more information’s, this transaction should be treated with utmost confidentiality.

Meanwhile kindly send to us your acceptance reply and other details will follow.

Allah bless you,

Mohamed Deen Kamara
