I got your contact from the Internet Search.I want you to assist me in this transaction. My late father was the managing director of Solin Gold and Diamond Mine company in Ivory coast .But he was killed along side with my mother during the longing civil war and all his properties were totally destroyed. However, after their death I managed to escape with very important files of my father.He has the sum of (US$5.2M)Five million two hundred thousand U.S Dollars only. This amount was deposited by my late father in one of the leading Banks. The deposit documents indicate me as the next of kin. Presently, I am saddled with the problem of securing a trust worthy foriegn personality to help me. I will map out 10% for you.
(1)Stand on my behalf in Senegal as the beneficiary for the claim of the
inheritance from the bank since the management of the bank adviced that I
should solicit for an individual or corporate organization to claim the deposit
for me as they cannot release it directly to me due to my refugee status in
Senegal.
(2)Transfer the money over to your own country and into your possession pending my arrival to meet with you.
