INTRODUCTION.
Dearest,
Please do reply me through my private mail box above, and also send me your direct mail to reach you. It is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I intend to establish in your country. Though I have not met with you before but I believe, one has to risk confiding in succeed sometimes in life. There isthis huge amount of Ten million, Seven hundred U.S dollars($10,700,000.00) which my late Father kept for me with a Fiduciary Fund Holder in Abidjan before he was assasinated by unknown persons during this war in Cote d'ivoire.
Now I have decided to invest these money in your country or anywhere safe enough outside Africa for security and political reasons.I want you to help me claim and retrieve these fund from the Fiduciary Fund Holders and transfer it into your personal account in your country for investment purposes on these areas:
1) Telecommunication
2) The Transport Industry
3) Five Star Hotel
4) Real Estate Management
If you can be of an assistance to me I will be pleased to offer to you 15% Of the total fund and 5% for any expenses made while on transaction.
I await your soonest response.
Best Regard,
Joy Alice Smith.
