Dear Honourable friend,
First I must give thanks to Almighty God for
preserving my life for this moment. And by his
special grace I got your contact
in a local directory. I am Adolphus Benedict Guei,
son of Late General Robert Guei former Ivorian
military Head of State killed on 19th September 2002 in
an abortive coup bymembers of the Patriotic Movement for
Cote d'Ivoire PMCI. My country once noted to be the most peaceful
in Africa suddenly descended intoanarchy turning to a
theatre of war . More thanks to United Nations High Commission
for Refugees UNHCR, Economic Community of WestAfrica
States ECOWAS ,International Red Cross Society IRCS,
and Government of Burkina Faso for their hospitality
towards thousands of displaced Ivorians in the
refugee camps.
I am camped in one of the United Nations Refugee
Rehabilitation Centers in Burkina Faso and hope of
returning to mycountry Cote D'Ivoire is not in sight
as governmentand rebel forces have not arrived at a
peacefultreaty. My greatest source of worry
is that our family are target for elimination by
same PMCI rebels who killed my father, hence we are
accorded extra security in this camp. Among
valuables I took with me is details of our family
account in the sum of US$15. 6million invested in my
name with a bank in European Union which my father
entrusted to my custody, ifwe (the family) ever find
ourselves in a situation ofthis nature. My father was a
man of great foresight. Although I suspect this money was
illegaly acquired at the expense of our country
while he was the military head of state, but under
this scenario you will believe with me that the end
have justified the means.
Presently, as a registered refugee under a special
protection programme my movement is restricted. I have
no access and funds to travel to Europe to negotiate
for the release of this money. I now solicit your unreserved
assistance and with vital agreements to act as proxy
on behalf of our family and sign out the money to
your custody. My family attorney is aware of our predicament. He
will liase with financial bodies concerned to
transfer funds to your ownership on our behalf. Once
funds gets to your country you establish a medium scale industry with
the funds under my supervision. I promise on my honour
to give you 20% of this funds in question,
and 20% share in any investment we will jointly
embark upon if you eventually assist me.
Acknowledge receipt of this mail while I eagerly look
forward to your sincere and prompt opinion.
Yours sincerely
Adolphus Benedict Yakubba Guei
