Subject: FROM ME PAULA BANGURA AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE
Dear ; Friend,
First, I must apologize if my mode of first contact is
not acceptable to you and also solicit your
confidence in this transaction; this is by virtue of
its nature as being utterly private and top secret.
Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude
will make anyone apprehensive and worried
My Name is Paula Bangura,I am the only dauther of late
Mr. and Mrs Fred Nzinga Bangura who was assisinated in
2002 during a political unrest that engulfed my
Country Zambia recently. They where shot to dead my
unknown Person(s) who where accusing him of funding
and sponsoring a factional Political group with his
money. So in respect of this they came to our House
and shot everyone dead including my two younger
Siblings by then I was not at home,But fortunately my
Father did not die instantly that day. It took him
three Months later after that incident before he
finally gave up the ghost.
Before the death of my father, on October 28, 2002, in
a private hospital, he secretly called me on his
bedside and told me that he has the sum of fifteen
million, five hundred thousand United
States(US$15.5Million dollars he deposited it in a
Finance and Security company here Dakar Senegal. with
my name as next of kin to the fund.
Now, after the recent crisis that burst up in my
Country I ran to Senegal where my father deposited the
fund and seeked asylum, that is how I now went to stay
in the United States Refugee Camp. So that is where am
currently staying for now. But the problem am
encoutering now is that when I went to the Financial
holding company to withdraw the money. I was made to
understand that with my status as a refugee I can not
be able to clear the fund,but can do so with the help
of a forieng partner. They told me that the local law
hear does not Permit a refugee to operate any business
atall, nor transact a fund of such magnitude.
So please dear, I am pleading, if ou can help me and
stand as my nominated next-of-kin and withdraw the
fund for me (USS15.5 Million Dollars) to your account
in your Coutry and I will be very glad to
Please once can help me with this project, I will
offer 15% percent of themoney then after I will
come over to your Country to start up a new life. And
also go into any profitable business you will advise
me to do.
Please you can reply me with this alternate email
address as it is the most confidential for me at the
moment:paula_bangura11@yahoo.ca
I will be waiting to hear your favourable response.
Sincerely,
Paula Bangura
