Subject: reply me urgently please
From Mrs Dorcas Emmanuel.
Abidjan,Cote d' Ivoire
West African
Dear Sir /Madam,
I presume that we have not met neither have we communicated before.Firstly,my
name is Mrs Dorcas Emmanuel. I am the wife of late Mr. Morrison Emmanuel.
My late husband Mr. Morrison Emmanuel who was a business tycoon based here
in Cote D' Ivoire was also the chairman Cheif Executive Hills Hotels died
on the 29/01/05 at the age of 53 after a brief illness at Eko Hospital here
in Cote D'Ivoire Could you believe that the tradition and costum of the
town and state where my late husband came from demands that any woman who
does
not have a male child for the husband, that when ever the husband dies,
all the properties including cash will be shared among the late husband
brothers and the woman will be sent out the husband house for good.
My dear, this is exactly what I am going through right now since my husband
died. My late husband brothers has taken all the properties belonging to
my late husband including bank account and as well sent me out of my husband
house just because I do not have a male child for my late husband.
This is a weaked tradition and believe.As am talking to you now,I and my
daughters are going through hell at the moment. Right now,I am having in
my possition all the vital documents relating to the sum of $17 million
dollars which my late husband deposited with a Security Company in Europe
and he made all the vital documents with my name as the next of kin
before his death.
At the time of Deposite my late husband did not disclose the contents of
the box to the Security Company as containing money rather he Deposited
it as FAMILY VALUABLES for security reasons.
Please remember that I cannot make use of this fund here due to forces surounding
me at the moment. Please have mercy at the poor widow like me and help me
out of this mess.
I strongly believe that the only way I can secure this money for myself
is to act fast and contact somebody in Overseas to help me and claim the
fund from the security comapny. This is the main reason why I am contacting
you for your assistance.The Documents covering the Box is intact here with
me and immediately I receive your reply I will give you the contact of the
Security Company for you to contact them immediately.
Please, as soon as this box is lifted from the Security company to your
country , you can go ahead and have 20% for your time and patience to help
me.
Remember that my child is the only happiness I have here on earth and I
cannot watch her suffer like this.Please if you are willing to help, kindly
reply me through this E-mail Address.
Antiously awaiting for your immediate response.
Yours Sincerely,
Mrs Dorcas Emmanuel.
