FROM CHARLES ANTHONY
ABIDJAN, COTE D'IVOIRE
WEST AFRICA
Dear One,
I know that this letter may come to you as a surprise.
I got your contact address from the Internet while I
was searching for a business partiner.
I am CHARLES ANTHONY the son of late Mr and Mrs MIKE
ANTHONY and my sister LILIAN.
Our father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan,
the economic capital of Ivory Coast before he was poisoned
to death by his business associates on one of their outing
to discuss on a business deal.
When our mother died ,our father took me and my junior sister
special because we are motherless. Before the death of our
father on 30th June 2004 in a private hospital here in Abidjan.
He secretly called us on his bedside and told us that he has a
sum of $13,500.000 (Thirteen Million Five Hundred united states
dollar) deposited in a Bank in Amsterdam - Holland on his name.
He also explained to us that it was because of this wealth and
some huge amount of money his business associates supposed to
balance him from the deal they had that he was poisoned by his
business associates,
that we should seek for a God fearing foreign partner in a country of our
choice who can come down and claim this fund from the bank for us for investment
purposes and use it for investment purpose, (such as real estate management).
We are honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways.
1) To act as the foreign partner of our father by claiming
this fund from the bank for further transfer and investment
to your designated bank account abroad.
2) To serve as the guardian of this since I am a young man
of 25 years and my younger sister just 22years.
Moreover , we are willing to offer you 15% of the sum as
compensation for effort input after the successful transfer
of this fund to your designated account in your country .
Anticipating to hear from you soon.or you can email me with
this (charles0anthony2@yahoo.com)
Thanks and God Bless.
Best regards
CHARLES AND LILIAN
