FROM Andy kebe
Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire

TEL +22 507 436 373
Dear Friend,
Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into
business relationship with you.
I am Master Andy kebe the only son of late Mr and Mrs
A.B Kebe. My father was a very wealthy cocoa
merchant in Abidjan, the economic capital of Ivory
Coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business
associates in one of their outings on a business trip.
My mother died when I was a baby and since then, my
father took me so special. Before the death of my
father on January 2003 in a private hospital here in
Abidjan, he secretly called me on his bedside and told
me that he has the sum of eighteen million, five
hundred
thousand US dollars (US$18,500,000) left in a fixed /
suspense account in one of the prime banks here in
Abidjan, that he used my name as his only son for the
next of kin in depositing the fund.
He also explained to me that it was because of this
wealth that he was poisoned by his business
associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner
in a country of my choice where I will transfer this
money and use it for investment purpose such as real
estate management or hotel management.
I am honourably seeking your assistance in the
following ways:
1) To serve as a guardian of this fund since I am only
20years old
2) To make arrangement for me to come over to your
country to further my education and to secure a
resident permit for me in your country.
Moreover, I am willing to offer you 15% of the
total sum as compensation for your effort/input after
the successful transfer of this fund into your
nominated account overseas and 5% for expenses.
Furthermore, you indicate your options towards
assisting me as I believe that this transaction would
be concluded within fourteen (14) days you signify
interest to assist me.
Anticipating to hear from you soon.
Thanks and God bless!
