Subject: Hello!
Good day and Compliments,
Dearest,
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
abundantly. My family and I are true Christians and worship's God
truthfully. I got your contact through Internet during my research on
someone who could help us.
I am a female student of University of Nigeria, Nsuka. I am 22 yrs old I
would like to build up a solid foundation with you in time coming if you
will be able to help me in this transaction. Well, my father died earlier
two months ago and left my mother I and my junior brother behind.
He was a king, which our town citizens titled him before his death. I was a
Princess to him and I and my brother are the only people who can take Care
of his wealth now because my mother is not literate enough to know all my
father's wealth he left behind.
He left up to USD 27,350,000.00(TWENTY SEVEN MILLION, THREE HUNDRED AND
FIFTY THOUSAND US DOLLARS) with a security firm, and 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 consent because I am a female as stated
by our culture in the town.
That is why I felt happy when I saw your contact which I strongly believe
that by the grace of God, you will help me secure and invest this money. I
thereby need your help in bringing the box contaning the money out from the
security company, based on your reply I will furnish you with more details
on how we can proceed.
I am ready to pay 20% of the total amount to you if you help us in securing
this money and another 10% interest of Annual Income to you, for handling
this business 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 and I will let you know the next step to
take towards actualizing this transaction as quickly as possible. Please,
note that this transaction is 100% risk free.
I look forward hearing from you soonest.
Yours sincerely,
Princess Stella Ajana.
