Hi everyone,

I am Tony Cobra from.the Philippines.

This is my first to be involved in this kind of endeavor, with my son.

Since time immemorial, it has been the talk of the town that the land inherited by my son from his adopted mother is said to have gold bars burried by the Japanese Officer and his two men and a Filipino (who happens to be the original owner of the land - the father of my son's adopted mother) before they surrendered to the American Forces.

Long time after the war was over, groups of Japanese people came one after another offering huge sum of money to buy the land. The adopted mother of my son knowing what is underground turned down the offer.

Before she died, she summomed my son and told him that it is time to.dig the treasure that was burried by the Japanese and her father. However, financial constraints prevented my son to dig the said treasure.

Long after that, my son was surprised having received a summon from the front office of the hotel he was working for. It was a group of Japanese people who summoned him asking if my son could have time for a meeting.

At the first meeting, he was offered a huge sum of money in exchange for his inherited land, of which my son refused. On the second round of talks, he was offered partnership of a development of his land to become world class beach resort. This time my son asked the Japanese to give him time to think about the offer. After sometime, he was summomed again and this time, a development plan was shown to him and explain to him that the development was just a front to conceal the real reason for digging. That in reality, they are going to dig something, of which my son will have his 10% share of what's gonna be recovered. My son asked them what's gonna be recovered and the answer was -gold. My son remembered his adopted mother's words before she died. Then my son asked them how would he know how much would his ten percent be? And the Japanese answered and said " you'll have ten percent of one ton" and the ultimate offer was, that my son will be given the exact amount in cash equivalent to ten percent of one ton of gold, EVEN BEFORE THE DIGGING STARTS. My son, calculating the offer that's not fair, asked them again to give him time to think. End of negotiation.







Many thanks.

Tony Cobra

Yes, Welcome to Treasure Net !!
I'll play aiong.
Can you post maps showing the terrain and topography of your land?
How accessible is the land?
Are you willing to pay upfront the Treasure Net investor's travel expenses (airfare and hotel) to/from your location?
Since those that wanted to buy your land said it was actually gold they were seeking, did you ask them to show you documents that supported the notion gold was on your property?
Did these people who first approached you mention how much of your land (area in square meters) they were interested in?

You son has an adoptive mother? me confused
 

missing text from your appeal? The CRH'ers in a better position to help than us lowly MD'ers
 

Thanks mckaydon. I hope u remember the reason od this appeal for help - financial constraints. We cannot afford to finance ur travel expenses and accommodation.
 

Welcome to Tnet! Interesting story but I find it hard to believe anyone would pass up the equivalent of 200lbs of gold up front for something they don't even know is there and that they wouldn't have to lift a finger to recover. I'd take that deal in a heartbeat.....Over $4,000,000.00 and no work involved....yeah, I think I could live with that regardless of what is actually there. Who know's what the government(s) would end up wanting and/or tying up in court. Let the speculators take all the risk and enjoy yourself all the way to the bank.....and beyond!
 

Not sure how I am still subscribed since my post disappeared, so here is another. Kind of sounds like it should be posted in the classifieds since he is selling. Sounds like he is selling a treasure hunt. Didn't think non-charter members could post in the classifieds though. So that could be a problem.

I have too much money tied up in a nice bunch of post holes being shipped out of west Texas. The last truckload got destroyed by a dust storm. Just can't go that far out on a limb with the rest of my venture capital.

Good luck in your search. I hope it is fruitful.

Let us know how it goes.

HI BOB!
 

Here's a suggestion:
They have offered you 10% of a ton of gold; or 200 pounds of gold.
Gold today is about $1,250/ oz. ; or 20k per pound. Times 200 pounds is $4M.
Offer to lease them your land for one year and as consideration ask for 1/2 of the 10% now and the other 1/2 when available.
Would $2,000,000 in your pocket now and keeping your land be worth it before they start digging?
Don.....

HI BOB!
It sounds like he's relaying a story to me....and maybe subtly seeking advice? If I were him, I'd run a 2 box over the land first and then decide whether to take their offer or not.
 

the thread says it's an appeal for help. What help do you need?
 

Welcome from Alabama and happy hunting to you. Be sure to share your cool finds as well as the things that you learn.
