From;Mrs Villaran Nenita.
Phillipine.
Dear Respected One,
My name is Madam Villaran. Nenita. A complete citizen of the Philippines,widow
to the late former minister of finance in Philippine who died on 15th of
May 2002.
My husband fell sick and he was flown to France for treatment but later
died of ulcer and he has been buried.
I inherited a total sum of 20 million dollars from my late husband, this
money which is concealed in a metallic trunk box is deposited with a security
and finance company here in Philippine. Due to the instruction I laid down
before I deposited the box, that I needed maximum security/safety of my
consignment and no body nor government organization can trace the where
about of the box until I am ready and prepare to claim it. for this reason
the security company used their diplomatic means to send the box out of
Philippines to Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire where they have their underground
secrete vault.
This deposit was coded under a secret arrangement as a family treasure.
This means that the security company does not know the content of this trunk
box that was sent from the Philippine to Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire under a
diplomatic coverage for safe keeping.
My main purpose of sending you this mail is because of the way I found you
and perhaps trustworthy to give you this priority of shipping the box of
money to any address that you think is very secure and save in your country
with your percentage of which we shall chat on soon.
In fact, since the death of my husband, his brothers has been seriously
chasing me around with constant treats, trying to suppress me so that they
might have the documents of his landed properties and confiscate them. They
have successfully collected all his properties, yet they never stopped there,
they told me to surrender all bank account of my late husband,which I did,
but I never disclose to them this deposit with the security company in Abidjan-
Cote d'Ivoire, because this is where my future and destiny lies upon.
The family of my late husband never aware of the secret existence of this
deposit which I made with the security company and they can never be aware
of it Out of fear of my late husbands family, and when the situation becomes
uncontrollable because of pressure on me from the Government of the Philippines,
I decide to look for a trustworthy person who could assist me retrieve this
box of money from the security company for onward lodgement into his account
for the purpose of future investment. Consider my situation as a widow and
come to my rescue please i beg of you with all honesty.
There is need for urgent action because I'm paying $50 dollars per day as
a demurrage to the security company for safe keeping this consignment and
i must be very frank with you that i am running out of the available fund
now.
N/B I have already paid for safe keeping charges,so you do not have to bother
about this fee,upon your acceptance i will trust you and issue you with
deposit reference code for you to call the security company.
I will appreciate you immensely for your co-operation as I look forward
to hearing from you soon. for quick prcessing and conclusion of this business
transaction,this is really counting upon you for the success of this transaction.
I have discussed with the security company and they have agreed to dispatch
this consignment to you in your country by diplomatic courier services mission
as part of thier shippment services to clients worldwide.
Please contact me urgently upon your acceptance so that we can discuss how
to go about this transaction speedily and accomplished it.
Thanking you in anticipation of your very kind and humane gesture and looking
forward to hearing considerably from you,this wishing you all the best and
God blessings.
