Dear sir, I am very sorry for the informal manner in which this mail is reaching You .This is necessitated by my urgent need to reach a dependable and trustworthy foreign partner. This request may seem strange and unsolicited but I crave your indulgence and pray that you take my request very seriously. I am Mr. PHILIP CHESSON, the first son of Late J. J. F. Chesson (Liberian Minister of Justice 1979 to 1980). On April 22, 1980, my father along with 12 other Liberian Government officials was assassinated as a result of a military coup that toppled the government of President William R. Tolbert, Jr. May his soul rest in Eternal Peace. Since then, my family has always been seen as a symbol of peace in Liberia. You can view our family web page below; (http://www.chessonfamily.com/chessonfamilypage.htm) I received information from a reliable source that described your country, as being economically conducive for investment and her people as, transparent and trustworthy to engaging business, which made me to write you. As you may want to know and to make you less curious, I got your email address from an Internet site that portrayed you in good light. Early this year, Liberia rebels agitated for the removal of President Charles Taylor, who portrayed a very good example of a bad leader. The President who needed support from prominent Liberia citizen gave me the sum of fifteen million United States Dollars (US$ 15M) cash(stalked in one trunk boxes) as compensation for my late father and solicited for my support. I quickly made an arrangement with a courier company here in Monrovia And moved the consignment to an asset management company in Europe. I did not support President Charles Taylor because my conscience is not for sale. Some months later heavy fight broke up in Liberia, he placed all the eligible members of my family under travel watch confiscated all our travelling documents and frozen all our account in Liberia. Later in July, foreign troops invaded Liberia and different peace keeping meetings were held and President Taylor was advised to step down for national peace. On the 11th August 2003 President Charles Taylor flied into exile but the Problem, we are having now is that he handed over power to his Vice-President Moses Blah who is more wicked and dangerous. He was the person that instigated Taylor to confiscated all our travelling documents and frozen all our account in Liberia. That is why I requested for your sincere assistance pending when a fresh election will be held here. The main rebel faction Liberians United for Reconciliation and Democracy (LURD)has vowed to continue its war if Taylor hands over to Blah. The rebels are not happy with the above development so they still continued fighting.
WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO DO FOR US: I will transfer the ownership of the consignment /box containing the Cash to you and issue you a power of attorney through my Lawyer. With these document you will make claims to the money as my proxy from the asset management company in Europe. The entire operation is risk free since it is only you and me and my Lawyer that knows the details of the money after you must have taken the money to your country where it is save my lawyer will then meet you in your country to use my share of the money for investment.
