Subject: Letter from Princess Joy A.
Dear friend,
I am writing this letter in confidence believing that if it is the wish
of God for you to help me and my family, God almighty will bless and
reward you aboundantly and you would never regreat this. I am a female
student from University of Burkina-Faso, Ouagadougou. I am 25 yrs old.
I'd like any person who can be caring, loving and home oriented. I will
love to have a long-term relationship with you and to know more about
you. I would like to build up a solid foundation with you in time coming
if you can be able to help me in this transaction. Well, my father died
earlier two months ago and left I and my junior brother behind. He was
a king, which our town citizens titled him over sixteen years before
his death.
I was a princess to him and I am the only person who can take care of
his wealth now because my junior brother is still young and my mother is
not literate enough to know all my father's wealth. He left the sum of
USD 7,350, 000.00 dollars (seven Million, Three Hundred and Fifty
Thousand US Dollars)in a security company.This money was annually paid
into my late fathers account from Shell petroleum development
company(spdc)and chevron oil company operating in our locality for the
compensation of youth and community development in our jurisdiction.
I don't know how and what I will do to invest this money somewhere in
abroad, so that my father's kindred will not take over what belongs to
my father and our family, which they were planning to do without my
present because I am a female as stated by our culture in the town.
Now, I urgently need your humble assistance to move this money from the
security company to your bank account and I strongly believe that by
the grace of God, you will help me invest this money wisely. I am ready
to pay 20% of the total amount to you if you help us in this transaction
and another 10% interest of Annual After Income to you, for handling
this transaction for us, which you will strongly have absolute control
over. If you can handle this project sincerely and also willing to assist
me in lifting this fund, kindly reach me. Please, note that this
transaction is 100% risk free and I hope to commence the transaction as
quick as possible, I will send you my picture as soon as I hear from you.
I am waiting to hearing from you.
Yours Sincerely,
Princess Joy Akanchawa (Ms).
