MY dear,
I have sent this mail to you before with out your reply. And I do not intend
to discolse this matter to any other person for safety reason. So I want
your positive response.
I am Mrs. Veronica Richard. Nguessan the wife of late Mr. Richard
Nguessan from the Takwarade province in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa.
I am writing to seek for your confidential assistance to transfer the sum
of US $9.000.000.00 Nine million dollars in your name to your country, where
I wish to relocate.
My late husband was a potential Cocoa and agricultural produce merchant
based in South-Africa. He was always travelling between Pretoria and Ivory
Coast for his business. on 15th of August, 2002 a week after he came back
from Abidjan in one of his business trips, he was killed with my first son
by unknown assassins.
My husband while still in the hospital, after all hope of reviving him failed,
disclosed to me that he deposited the sum of USD$9,000,000.00 (Nine Million
United States Dollars) in a fixed deposit with a commercial bank in Abidjan-Cote
d'Ivoire that the money was meant for his business he wanted to invest in
Abidjan-Cote d'Ivoire. That his business friend who knew about the deposited
money planned for his death.
According to my husband he told me to take care of the money for the sake
of his family and business. He instructed me to seek for a foreign business
investment partner abroad where we can relocate because of the fear of what
his business friends can do to us here .
As a result of this we cannot stay in our country again .I have
succeeded in re-locating to Abidjan and I have confirmed the existence of
the fund in the bank here in Abidjan -Cote d'Ivoire with the deposit documents
he gave to me before his death.
With utmost confidence, and because of the unstable political problem in
this country now, coupled with the election coming on in the country this
year, every foreigner is afraid of the insecurity in the country so I am
soliciting your assistance to send to me your bank account particulars where
this money will be transferred to as my late husband's foreign business
partner for joint investment in your business in your country, as this money
is now our only hope .
Immediately this money gets to your country, I am willing to give you 15
% as your commission for assisting me. Please kindly contact me on the above
email address immediately for more details.
Thank you and God bless.
Best regards,
Veronica R. Nguessan
