Kindest attention,
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 serious.
I am Mr. J. Rodney 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.
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 twenty-eight million United States
Dollars (US$ 28M) cash (stalked in two 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 traveling 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 and handed over power to
his Vice-President Moses Blah who is even more wicked and dangerous. He was the person
that instigated Taylor to confiscated all our traveling documents and frozen all our
account in Liberia. On Tuesday 14th October 2003, Gyude Bryant took office in Liberia
as the head of an interim government. Bryant, 54 was by picked by the warring factions
and this step has offered Liberia a new chance to end nearly 14 years of violence. My
lawyer approached him as regards releasing our traveling documents and the embargo on
our bank accounts but he declined and told us that his priority is disarm fighters and
pave the way for elections that is why I requested for your sincere assistance pending
when a fresh election will be held here.
WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO DO FOR US:
I will transfer the ownership of the consignment /boxes containing the cash to you and
issue you a power of attorney through my Lawyer. With these document you will 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. Bearing in mind that your assistance is needed to transfer this fund, I
propose a commission of 20% (twenty percent) of the total sum to you for the expected
services and assistance.
Your private fax and telephone numbers are needed to enhance the speedy conclusion of
this transaction (our only hope in life now) urgently. Your urgent response via the
above email address is highly needed so as to stop further contact. I must use this
opportunity to implore you to exercise the utmost indulgence to keep this matter extra
ordinarily confidential whatever your decision while I await your prompt response. Our
phone line both home and abroad are bugged. So don't call me. I will always call you
at my convenient time and in a conducive atmosphere.
Best regards,
J. Rodney Chesson.
