[He's a "child of 24 years". Who the hell does he model himself on - Paris Hilton?
And I love the irony in the "father's" warning against cheaters.
One thing always appears - the demand for ID.
Time for a few things - a bit of scene-setting about Malcolm's time in the Marine Corps, and a minor (but deserved) slap about the "child of 24" line.]
Malcolm Reynolds
Mr Guei,
This is going to take some thought. It's a major effort, especially if I'm supposed to be your father's "business partner". I understood that he was a military man; as it happens, I served in the US Marine Corps. Could this apply? Please clarify the matter of how this will work before I supply personal details - if I can't help you, there's no point in sending them.
By the way - please don't give me that "i am a child of 24 yrs" line - at that age, I was an officer in command of 168 officers and enlisted men.

Malcolm Reynolds
Mr Guei,
If I want to ask a question I will not keep quiet, I will ask the gorram question! There's an old Corps saying, "Time spent in recon is never wasted".
Here's the info you wanted:
Full names: Malcolm Paul Reynolds
Nationality: American
Home and office address: 2/33 Stuart Drive, Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia 0870
Your home and office telephone and fax number: (03) 9347 8666 - no fax
Confidential mobile number: Not available
International passport Copy or working ID Card: Not permitted in either case
Looking at your suggestion of claiming to be your father's business partner; what was his business?
You said he was a military man! And what timeframes are we talking about?
As for 24 year old Africans being babies - when I was in Somalia, I remember twelve- and thirteen-year-olds shooting at us with AK47s and RPGs. They weren't babies. They had guts.

[I have no idea what the point was about the third paragraph. I also don't get why he had to put in that "in case you fuck with my money" line. Here we have his first display of arrogance with his "born to rule" line. We also have a demand to call without giving a number - priceless!]
Malcolm Reynolds
[This slap was more out of exasperation - at the combined display of stupidity, and arrogance. Maybe I have a beginner here!]
Mr Guei,
Let's get a few things straight between us.
I am not refusing you my ID out of spite. I'm not sending my passport because the State Department doesn't allow it; I'm not sending my work ID because I'm at an airport and I do not want my work ID card in the wrong hands - it's a post-9/11 thing,
You say you were born to rule. Well, we Americans fought a war to get out from under some people who thought that. As far as I'm concerned you are what you make of yourself. I've been a deckhand on my dad's fishing boat, a US Marine (rising from Private to Captain), and now I'm working on creating my own air courier company in outback Australia. You, on the other hand, are a student - and that's all. You'll get respect when you've earned it, and not before.
"So should incase you fuck with my money when you claim it i will use your indentity to track you down" - let me tell you something; this is not how you talk to your business buddy, OK? Threats are stupid things.
Yes, I am in Australia, at the address given.
"My father was a president before he died so he has wright to do business with many people in any country" - did I say he couldn't have been a businessman? But for crying out loud, what business was I supposed to be his partner in? Look, until early 2000 I was serving in the USMC, and then I returned to Charleston for a year, went to Australia in mid-2001 and I've been here ever since.
Exactly when could I have been his business partner?
"[P]lease call me on my private number as soon as you get this mail" - I have many talents, but ESP ain't one of them. Actually give me a number and I'll try calling it!

Mr Guei,
I'm not budging on my ID matter. The war on terror makes it even more important to keep IDs on a tight leash. I don't want to end up on some watch list because my passport gets loose out there. I've tried the number you gave but I'm hearing either static (once), something that may have been French (once), dead air (three times) -so far, batting a thousand!
There may be a compromise if you'll accept my passport number and a photograph - you can check with the US Embassy maybe.
I much prefer your tone now. We're speaking as equals. Long may it stay that way!

If i was not in the of course i will tell. Anyway my dear i don't know you in person ok, but if you want to send m\e your picture i will need three different pictures of yours. And again how am i going to know that the international passport number you sent to me was yours and also real and valid?
Again you are delaying this transaction, and since you are not capable to call me give me your mobile number with the country code so that i will call you.

Mr Guei,
I don't like your attitude going back to the way it was. Maybe you forgot to switch your phone back on; who knows? All I know is that I tried to call at what I guessed was 1900 your time, which should have been outside class hours, and got nowhere.
Now let's get something straight here. You contacted me, not the other way round, yet the info is flowing all one way. You're demanding so much from me and I'm getting nothing back. How do I know this is not some sort of identity theft? You've got my contact details, name, address... you wanted my passport! How do I know that you are who you say you are? How do I know that there's any money? Give me some evidence!
One other thing - don't call me "my dear". That ain't right in my book.

Mr Guei,
My protocol? May I remind you that you were making all the demands, not me? We are partners, not Lord and Lackey! All that I requested was something in good faith. I've not seen it yet.
No, I have no intention of travelling to Dubai without a really good reason. I have a company to finish setting up, and a timeline to work to. Unless this business absolutely positively needs my presence in Dubai, I'd rather not.
Let me know.

Mr Guei,
I have a name, so you might as well use it... <sigh>
Anyway - I'll do it, but a couple of questions first - one, when was the deposit made; two, what was your father's business at the time? I want to make sure that I can make this work in with my own movements.

January 1999 - I was posted to Guantanamo Bay then (from early October 1998 to late March 1999). I didn't leave the Corps until about sixteen months after that, and I arrived in Australia in May 2001.
So if I was your Dad's business partner... seriously, is this going to work?

Listen, buddy, I am not LOW, you got that? I am going to do this thing, just to show you where to stick that attitude, my smug young partner.
But first you damn well remember my name, for crying out loud! My name is not "Dear"! My name is MALCOLM REYNOLDS, and you'd better gorram well remember it!
I'll get onto that Maxwell Khan, and if he asks any questions about your Dad and me in business, why you can handle that!

Dear Malcolm Reynolds,
Thanks for the mail you forwarded to me, I have gone through it the content is well noted and understood. Yes I think you have to explain your self to them by telling them that you did not come immediately to claim the consignment was because you was so occupied and too busy , and also that you decide give him a commensurate respect that is due to him before you could appear for the claim. And again according to the lawyer in your country that before you claim a dead man or woman property, that you must at least give the person 5 to 6 yrs gap before going for the claim.
And also tell them that you have all the prove that shows you are the next of kin, please this is my own opinion so you are right to tell me your own suggestion.
I am counting on your maximum cooperation.

You know what's missing here? I have no idea of time frames.
I don't know when your father died, so I don't know what to tell them. I need details - of exactly when and where he died, where he was in the years preceding his death, and the business he was doing in those years.
I am not going to be able to tell them a gorram thing without that info.
Let me know when you'll have that stuff sorted out and I'll try to stall them.

Thanks for your mail, I have gone through it and the content is well noted and understood. As a matter of fact my father died on 11th November 2002 at Government Military Hospital Abidjan after two hours of being shouted.
So this is the answer to your question, and again he was an importer of foreign product before he died. When he imports goods people will be coming and buying in whole sale prizes.
I am looking forward to hear from you.

Mr Guei,
This doesn't give me much to work with.
I left the Corps in March 2000, spent a year in Charleston, and then went to Australia. It's those 2-1/2 years that we have to work with.
Did he do business in the US? Did he have any dealings with anyone in Australia? You said he was an importer - of what? I could be an agent perhaps, but I need to be able to state something credible and consistent.
You said he was a military leader - perhaps I was advising him on obtaining military supplies? That would at least make sense.

Please we are taking so much time in this matter just use your own head to write what is reasonable.

Let's see what he does with this. I'm trying for a trophy.]
Malcolm Reynolds
Mr Guei,
I think I have it at last. Let's say that I met your father in Somalia in 1993, when he was supplying catering services to the Allied forces there. When I mustered out, he somehow heard of this (exactly how doesn't matter I guess) and got word to me to Charleston. We did a deal to buy ammunition for him. When I arrived in Australia, I arranged for the transfer of surplus rifles and machine-guns to his forces. However, there was trouble with one of the suppliers, and I had to cut contact. Thus I lost touch with him and never received word of his death until a little while ago. What I need from you are three things, one of them immediately relevant:
[1] The name of one of your dad's companies to quote in my reply to Group 4.
[2] A Memorandum of Agreement for my work in America to supply 4 million rounds of 7.62 x 51 mm ammunition to General Guei, dated July 2000.
[3] Another MoA for my work in Australia, relating to the supply of 150 L1A1 rifles, 15 L4A4 LMGs, and 10 M60 GPMGs, dated March 2001.
Those last should be made available to show Group 4 that business was done. Scan and email them ASAP - leave plenty of room for my signature.
I'll write Group 4 once you confirm the name of the company (see point 1).

Dear Malcolm Reynolds,
Thanks for your mail, I have gone through it and the content is well noted and understood, among those three things you needed I can provide one one because this is the one am sure of and also the company has been sold to another person by my uncles.
My father was the owner of TERRE FERTILE COTE D'IVORY before he died and it was sold to another person.
Please let us use this idea first than to continue wasting time if there is any other time they demand, we should wait till they demand it first.
I am counting on your maximum cooperation.

I don't think that your going to Cote d'Ivoire would be a good idea, on the grounds that there are people there who might want to KILL you, remember that?
Also, of course, there are no actual MoAs in Cote d'Ivoire. That is why I suggested that you actually write the gorram things. Simple word documents with the right headers? Would that be so hard?

Malcolm Reynolds
Mr Guei,
You're going to have to do this because you know your Dad's writing style.
A Memorandum of Agreement is just a letter setting out the terms of a deal. It needs to have his business headers, an intro naming the parties to the deal and giving the date.
After that is a paragraph stating what's been agreed to - in one case, the supply of four million rounds of 7.62 X 51 mm ammunition at a price not exceeding $80,000 plus 5% shipping costs; in the other, the weapons I listed before, at a price not exceeding $35,000 plus 5% shipping costs.
The next paragraph gives delivery dates, and ends with spaces for your Dad's signature, my signature, and that of an attorney.
Easy as pie, right? Let me know when you're done and I'll vet them.

ATTN: Malcolm Reynolds,
Sir,
It is true he has explained to me and I have directed him to ask you for your full details and pass them over to me to enable us prepared the agreement. There is no problem as I have much knowledge of his father's kind of transaction like these one. I have told me not to expose himself in the School and he need total security for his life.
It was a welcome idea when I hear from him, his plan to transaction his business in your Name or firm. I will do my part as a long time Lawyer to his father
Looking forward to receive the information from you.

Barrister M. Dajani

["I have told me not to expose himself in the School" - not only a slip, but an opportunity! ]
Malcolm Reynolds
Mr Dajani,
Thanx for the prompt reply.
Bear in mind that there are TWO agreements to draw up, not one. I quote the outlines I provided to Mr Guei earlier.
**
A Memorandum of Agreement for my work in America to supply 4 million rounds of 7.62 x 51 mm ammunition to General Guei, dated July 2000.
Another MoA for my work in Australia, relating to the supply to General Guei of 150 L1A1 rifles, 15 L4A4 LMGs, and 10 M60 GPMGs, dated March 2001.
**
It needs to have his business headers, an intro naming the parties to the deal and giving the date. After that is a paragraph stating what's been agreed to - in one case, the supply of four million rounds of 7.62 X 51 mm ammunition at a price not exceeding $80,000 plus 5% shipping costs; in the other, the weapons I listed before, at a price not exceeding $75,000 plus 5% shipping costs. The next paragraph gives delivery dates, and ends with spaces for your Dad's signature, my signature, and that of an attorney.
**
My personal details to be quoted on the MoAs are:
For the first MoA - Malcolm Paul Reynolds of 22a Wharfside Road, Charleston, South Carolina, USA SC39401; phone +1 843 555 2432
For the second MoA - Malcolm Paul Reynolds of 1/36 Westmoreland Grove, Glebe, Sydney, NSW, Australia 2125; phone 02 9486 3589
I have some concerns about this business if Mr Guei has to be told to refrain from indecent acts while at college. His attitude can be unbelievably self-centred and arrogant if his letters to me are anything to go by.
You should tell him to keep his gorram zipper closed!

[I want a trophy...]
Mr Dajani,
I requested that you create two documents, the details of which I supplied at length. At this stage I have no other use for your services at this time.
Please send me the completed MoAs so that I can assess their quality. If necessary you can stamp them as SAMPLE ONLY, but I insist on vetting the finished documents.
"[L]ong distance telephone charges, copying charges, filing fees,postage, facsimile charges, court costs, travel expense or the like" play no part in that duty.
Also, you stated that you would "register it [sic] in the Court for reference purpose". Which court? You have not been asked to register the MoAs!
Mr Dajani, I have no objection to paying you for your drafting of the Memoranda of Agreement, but I will not pay out money for unnecessary tasks.

Dear Sir,
We are not telling you pay for the MOA alone, rather than telling you our retainer cost to participate in this transaction. We have already started the write up. This is legal firm and I'm a member I must follow the rule of the organization. Writing the MOA is not the problem but using the firm stamp is the key factor and shows the legality of such Document. And the Retainers fee must be pay to the firm and register the MOA with the chamber as witness to the agreement as at that date.
Yours truly,
Dajani.

I called the lawyer today he told me that he received your mail and also the information's he asked you to provide, he even told me that he also informed you about his consultation fee which you have to incur.
But why do you choose to insult me, abuse me, humiliate me etc. what you mean by watch yourself! You don't want to get arrested for indecency. Don't go flashing around, OK? Explain that words to me. And again listen to me if any body calls you and tell you that I am her son tell that person that she is lying and please do not broadcast me for my security reason. I did not know any body, my mother is dead, my be she is my uncle wife, I told you that they don't know where I am and please never give anybody my contact or please you can end up with the transaction, I am begging you in the name of God.
If you do that, that means you are trying to jeopardize all my life and efforts.and again none of my family member is in togo, so if anybody tell you that she is my mother staying in togo tell her to shout up, infact forward her number to me.

[At the time I wrote this, memories of a tabloid press moral panic about the Australian series of Big Brother - in which two idiot male housemates slapped a girl housemate across the face with their genitals and more or less spawned a new slang phrase - were still fresh. ]
Mr Guei,
Is there any chance you could get down off your gorram high horse?
I'm not to blame for any trouble you might be in. Dajani said that he'd had to stop you from exposing yourself in college, and not before time! What the Sam Frick got into you to go around turkey-slapping your classmates? Just when you need a low profile, you're waving your cock around in front of people! I know you're the son of a president, but for God's sake, it doesn't give you a gorram shooting license!
And while we're here, Dajani is surplus to requirements. He was talking about registering the MoAs in the UAE - which of course doesn't make any sense. They would have been filed in the US and in Australia. I'll have to rethink that aspect.
Nadia Guei ain't your auntie, of that I'm sure. She wrote "my name is Mrs.NADIA GUEI the wife of the former president of Coted'Ivore Robert Guei". But then you wrote, "my mother was also reported to me to has been killed". So you can't be sure that she's dead. We have to find out. If you don't want to handle this, I will.

Mr Guei,
Dajani won't be registering any gorram thing because I told him he wasn't needed in this business. What he has to do is keep you out of trouble and make sure you keep your cock locked away. I don't know why you have this thing about showing it to the unsuspecting, but trust me; it's a sign of either inadequacy or arrogance - or in your case, maybe both.
