Dear,
My name is Madam Villaran. Nenita. A complete citizen of the Philippines,
widow to the late former minister of finance in Philippine who died on 15th
of May 2002.My husband fell sick and he was flown to France for treatment
but later died of ulcer and he has been buried.
I inherited a total sum of (12.3 million dollars)from my late husband,
this money which is concealed in a metallic trunk box is deposited with
a security and finance company here in Philippine.
Due to the instruction I laid down before I deposited the box, that I needed
maximum security/safety of my consignment and no body nor government organization
can trace the where about of the box until I am ready and prepare to claim
it. for this reason the security company used their diplomatic means to
send the box out of Philippines to with a security and finance company in
Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire where they have their underground secrete vault.This
deposit was coded under a secret arrangement as a family treasure. This
means that the security company does not know the content of this trunk
box that was sent from the Philippine to Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire under a
diplomatic coverage for safe keeping.
My main purpose of sending you this mail is because of the way I found
you and perhaps trustworthy to give you this priority of shipping the box
of money to any address that you think is very secure and save in your country
with your percentage of which we shall chat on soon.
In fact, since the death of my husband, his brothers has been seriously
chasing me around with constant treats, trying to suppress me so that they
might have the documents of his landed properties and confiscate them.
They have successfully collected all his properties, yet they never stopped
there, they told me to surrender all bank account of my late husband,which
I did, but I never disclose to them this deposit with the security company
in Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire because this is where my future and destiny lies
upon. The family of my late husband never aware of the secret existence
of this deposit which I made with the security company and they can never
be aware of it.
Out of fear of my late husbands family, and when the situation becomes
uncontrollable because of pressure on me from the Government of the Philippines,
I decide to look for a trust worthy person who could assist me retrieve
this box of money from the security company for onward lodgement into his
account for the purpose of future investment.Consider my situation as a
widow and come to my rescue.
There is need for urgent action because I'm paying($50 dollars) per day
as a demurrage to the security company for safe keeping this consignment.
I give thanks immensely for your co-operation as I look forward to hear
from you soon.
Address your responds to my Private:email: vinen202@yahoo.com.ph
for quick conclusion of this business.
All the best,
Madam Villaran. Nenita.
