Dear
I hope this mail will not come to you as a surprise. My family got your
contact through your country's representative at the International Chamber
of Commerce (I.C.C). We decided to contact you for a mutual business relationship.
My name is Amey Konan Bedie. I am the son of His Excellency Henri Konan
Bedie, who was the President of Cote D'Ivoire from 1993 to 24th Dec. 1999
when the military junta led by Gen. Robert Guei toppled his Government.
When my father's Government was toppled, my entire family was driven into
exile. While my parents lived in France, I lived with my siblings in London.
However, through an amnesty granted to my father by the incumbent president,
Mr. Laurent Gbagbo, my father returned back from exile in France on 15th
Oct 2001.
Meanwhile, when my father was in power, I was working as his special aid
and was coordinating his private businesses in Africa and abroad. We had
many deposit accounts with different financial institutions in Europe.
Unfortunately for my family, the military Government of Gen. Robert Guei
that toppled my father's Government got wind of some of the deposit accounts
and in a swift action frozen 11 (eleven) of the accounts in 9 (nine) banks
in Switzerland and Luxembourg. The effect of this and ousting from power
of my father within a very short period of time was devastating to my
family.
All the while my family has been on exile, we have lived under very critical
financial conditions with absolute resolve not to do anything that can
lead the present Government in my country to this remaining account which
the military did not discover. Now that my father, His Excellency Henri
Konan Bedie is back home and the searchlight of Government has moved away
from my family, we have decided to make moved to change the identity of
the account. This is the reason why we decided to contact you.
I have the mandate of my father to contact you and request for your assistance
to my family, by helping us to secure this remaining deposit we have with
a financial institution in Europe, which amounts to U.S.$15 million (Fifteen
million U.S. Dollar). This aimed at making it impossible for the Government
in my country to know about this fund. My family will be pleased if you
can accept to hold this fund in safe keeping by receiving it from the
financial institution on our behalf and by accepting to change the name
and signatory of the account into your own. This will eliminate any link
between my family's name and this fund and permanently keep it from the
knowledge of my country.
I will furnish you with details of this transaction if you accept to assist.
We will discuss your remuneration when you reply.
Because of the urgency this issues require, you should reach me on the
following email address:
ameykonan2002@starspath.com
I look forward to your early response.
Best regards,
Amey Bedie.
