From Amed Hassan,
Abidjan (Ivory Coast),
Dear,
I am Mr Amed Hassan from Ivory Coast. I am an orphan of 19 years old being
that I lost my father a couple of a year, and some months ago. My father
was a serving director of the Cocoa exporting board until his death.
He was assassinated last January 2002 by the rebels following the political
uprising. Before his death he had a foreign account here in Côte d?Ivoire
up to the tune of $17.5M which he told the bank was for the importation
of cocoa processing machine.
I want you to do me a favour to receive this fund to a safe account in your
country or any safer place as the beneficiary.
I have plans to do investment in your country, like real estate and industrial
production. This is my reason for writing to you. Please if you are willing
to assist me, indicate your interest in replying soonest.
Thanks and best regards.
Amed Hassan.
