Dear Sir,
I will like to use this medium to introduce myself to you properly. My name is Morgan Thomas, I am a citizen of Sudan . I am now residing in Ghana where I came to claim my inheritance.
I came to Ghana for a purpose and a mission which I would want you to partake in it and also because of the rising situation that came up during my stay in Ghana . I am from a family of three (3) comprises of two boys and a girl, but unfortunately for me I lost the rest siblings of my family together with my father in Sudan during the conflict (civil war). My Father died as a result of an attack on his life by the rebel leader who invaded our country in late 2005.
My Late Father was the former personal assistant to the minister of mines, works and energy. Before he was killed, and also before he started working for the Government of my country Sudan , he was dealing on sales of Gold and Diamonds of which he got his fame as a Gold and Diamond Merchant in my country. This is why I have to contact you. Before the death of my late father, he came to Ghana to deposit a trunk box of money containing $11 million US Dollars. which he got from the sales of his Gold and Diamonds.
He packaged this money into a metallic box and underneath the money is gold which he kept there safely for future purposes. After he had deposited the box with the security company he was issued with some documents and he handed the same documents to me as his next of kin. I want you to help me as my foreign beneficiary to claim the box containing money and the gold. The reason for me asking you to help me is that my late father undertakes an agreement with the security company that unless I provide a foreign partner/beneficiary, the company should not release the trunk box to me.
You have to help me to invest the money and sell the Gold because they are very expensive, I have thought about it myself and have come to a conclusion, that I will give you half of the Gold under the money and also 20% of the sum total money of $11 million US Dollars for you assistance.I would like you to get back to me with your information. I would need to send you all documents involved so you can contact the company for them to release and deliver to you the box as my foreign beneficiary/partner.Dont forget to include your direct telephone number/mobile lines in your reply.
I await for you kindest reply so this transaction could be facilitated easily.
Thanks God Bless us
