Hi Lover,
I am the only Daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs.Morufu Ozo, My father
was a highly reputable busnness magnet who operated in the capital of Ivory
coast during his days.I'm a deaf girl.
It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one
of his business trips abroad year 12th.Febuary 2000.Though his sudden death
was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of
his who travelled with him at that time. But God knows the truth!
My mother died when I was just 6 years old,and since then my father took
me so special.
Before his death on Febuary 12 2000 he called the secretary who accompanied
him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of fifteen million,seven
hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$15.700,000) left in fixed deposit
account in one of the leading banks in Africa.He further told him that he
deposited the money in my name,and finally issued a written instruction
to his lawyer whom he said is in possession of all the necessary but legal
documents to this fund and the bank.
I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know
what to do.Now I want an account overseas where I can transfer this funds
and after the transaction i will come and live with you as a lover and i'm
ready to do anything of your choice. This is because I have suffered a lot
of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast.The
death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life and i wished to invested
under your care please.
I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards.Your
suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.Now permit me to ask these
few questions:-
1. Can you honestly help me as your lover or future wife,that is what i
want from you.
2. Can I completely trust you as a lover? .
What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after
the money is in your account while i finalers my education?
Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible Immedaitely
