Subject: From Mrs Ashril Coulibaly
From:Mrs Ashril Coulibaly 324 Rue Meway,Tres Ville Cote D'ivoire. Dear Friend, I know you will be surprised to read from me,but please consider this letter as a request from a family in dare need of assistance.Firstly, I must introduce myself,I am Mrs.Ashril Coulibaly from Cote D'ivoire. I am the wife of late Brigadier Kofour Coulibaly My husband was a Brigadier incharge of arms ammunitions procurement in the Cote D'ivoire army.In his"Will",he specifically drew my attention to US$20 Million which he deposited in a safe box of a private Security Company in Lome-Togo Africa,as a family treasure box,fully documented in our first son's name(Mr.KENNETH BODE COULIBALY).IN FACT MY HUSBAND SAID AND I QUOTE: "My beloved son,I wish to draw your attention to US$20million(Twenty-Million United States Dollars).I deposited the box containing the fund in a private Security Company in Lome-Togo. Before the coup d'etat that took place in our country,I was very dedicated and committed to be promoted to the post of personal assistance to the president against until when I found out that seniour army officers and top government functionaries were busy helping themselves with government funds and properties and sending them to foreign countries".Due to this when I was assigned by the President (President Henry Konan BEDIE) to purchase arms from South Africa,I dicieded not to use this money to purchase arms which will kill poeple and diverted the fund for my personal use. In case of my absence on each as a result of death,only you should solicit for the transfer of the fund out of this shore for investment purposes.From the above,you will understand that the lives and future of my family depends on this fund,as such I will be grateful if you can assist my son who is in Lome Togo for now as an asylum seeker,and the financial laws andregulations of the Republic of Togo do not permit an asylum seeker to operate in a bank or invest. In view of this,I cannot invest this fund in Lome Togo,hence I have contacted you,am prepared to offer you 40% of the total fund,and 60% will be for my family.Finally,modalities on how the transfer will be done,once we have established trust and confidence between ourselves. Moving the funds out of here is not going to be much of a problem as arrangements are being made by my lawyer towards that.All I want from you is your trust and assurance that if the box gets to you,you can keep it in a safe place until our arrival. Please feel free to dis-regard this proposal if it is not in line with your principles. please do not expose me and for security reasons. My God bless you for your understanding. Sincerely, Mrs Ashril and son coulibaly.
