Dear RESPECTFUL,

My name is Dr. David Koffi I am a financial broker by profession. I
have an important business I want to propose to you therefore go
through this email and get back to me.

In the year 2011 during the political upheavals in Libya, I was
consulted by one of my old client an oil magnate and ex minister of
petroleum being a strong ally to deposed Libyan president Muammar
Gaddaffi. My client sought for my assistance to move 800 kilograms of
Gold Dore Bars to a financial house abroad when it became clear to him
that Gaddaffi will be ousted from the seat of power.

As a financial broker I secured a Certificate of origin showing that
the Gold was purchased from a Gold mining company here in Ghana and
then made the necessary arrangements with an offshore financial house
and the total 800 kilograms of Gold was moved out safely and was
placed under their custody without a beneficiary/recipient name on it
because my client didn’t want his name mentioned due to his political
status at the time.

Now prior to the expiration of the deposit agreement we had with the
financial house, the financial house has called on my urgent attention
to furnish them with the details of the rightful beneficiary to enable
them expedite the delivery of the gold but unfortunately my client was
assassinated few years ago in an unknown circumstances. Please check
the report of his death on BBC news

Now I am seeking your assistance to present you to the financial house
as the beneficiary and recipient of the Gold to enable them place the
Gold on your name for subsequent delivery or redeposit

I decided to do this because I cannot forfeit this deposit to the
finance house considering the fact that no other individual or person
is aware of this deposit except me and my deceased client.

Your role is to only pose as the beneficiary of the deposit since the
Gold was deposited without beneficiary’s name and after that you will
instruct the finance company to deliver the Gold to any country we may
decide to sell the Gold and after that I will fly down to meet with
you and disburse the proceed of the Gold 50% for you and 50% for me.
I am open for negotiations if you deem it necessary. As a Christian I
would want to use part of my own share to start a charity organisation
to help millions of impoverished children there in Libya.

As you can see from the above explanation, everything about this
transaction is 100% legitimate and will never bring trouble of any
kind now and after the completion of the transaction.

If you are ready to work with me kindly indicate your interest of
coming down to Accra Ghana and provide me your direct telephone number
for verbal discussion.

I am looking forward to hearing from you AT [email protected]

Yours sincerely,

Dr. David Koffi
