Dear Sir/Madam
How are you and your family ? Hope well. Pardon me, I know you dont know
me, But this is a good chance for us to know each other. I am seeking your
assitance in a transaction that involves my family.
I have sent an email to you . I know you must be busy and you might find
it difficult to reply my mail, but if you can give me your telephone number
i can call you at your free time.
My mail contained information about the assistance that i needed you to
do for my family, I am a widow with 3 kids and my brother In-law (Richard).
We are from Angola, I lost my husband there, which is on reasons i have
contacted you. We could no longer stay in Angola due to some reasons beyond
our control. My husband is a traditional ruler, at the time of his handing
over the post to the next man,he got involved in some sort of mis-understanding
that lead to his death.
We had to leave, it was no longer safe, just for the future of my family.
We had to leave for Mauritus to escape the pressure and knowing fully well,
how hard it was going to be for us in another world, An Island in the Indian
Ocean. From here we have been trying to contact you via the internet and
its not easy. But i have hope we would get connected to you .
From here we have also managed to get intouch to our friend and sympathizers
back in Angola. With the help of Richard my brother In-law. We managed to
get some money to start our lives afresh. Most of the money are from the
land area my husband had. Part of the land we have Precious Stones Mining
Sites. We had to let all that go down the drain.
But we made Twenty-Five Million US Dollars for selling out all we hope on,
So we only hope on this funds too.
We had to lodge the funds under the security outfit here in Maurtius, which
is our present location, we were making arrangements to contact for help,
So if you can help us in getting this funds overseas we would start a new
life. Please we are innocent people trying to make a living. We need a change
of environment because we have seen the worst here and for the children
most especially, I feel they need to relocate. I beleive you would be saving
our souls. Please dont let us waste away.
We need someone who we can trust like you on the international level, since
we haven,t had the chance to own foriegn accounts. We will pay for your
services.
I am willing to give you a certain percentage of this fund. I will be happy
if you could serve as our guardian. We live as refugee here in Maritius,
because its not our home country, we pray we can work this out as soon as
possible.Please its no longer safe here anymore for me, i don't even know
what the future holds for my kids, they have stopped school for 5 months
now.
Please i want you to forward me your phone number and fax that i can reach
you so that i will explain to you more details on the exact role which is
required of you for the successfully conclusion of this transaction.
I look forward to your earliest response, Please I need your help and I
believe with your help my life and that of my family will be safe.Please
for security reasons you are to respond back to my email address. Email:

Thank You
Madam Rosa.
