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. 

Early last (2003) 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 that has their branches in Asia and
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 2003, 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 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 to 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.
