I would like you to do same too, I am originally from Liberia and living currently
in senegal and my parents died during the war in my country but for then my father
deposited some amount of
money in a bank which worth 12.9 million US dollars and as a result of this war I did
not finish my school and which I want to finish at any day things get better, I am
staying in a camp here in Dakar with reverend who I told about all my plight which
made him to give me access to internet, and I write
through his computer,
please i am asking for your help/asistance to claim this money from the bank because
according to my age
and refugee status I am not legible to apply for this money , I am still 21 years
old lady
and I do not let anybody to know about this until this week when I had concluded my
thinking and also make a decision to retrive the fund,
so it's quite very unfortunate about the pains that I am facing while having such
amount in bank which i am the
next of kin ,I now decide to contact you and to confide in you my secret with belief
that you will help me get the money out of
the bank which I will compensate you I am confiding in you my secret with the strong
faith that you will not betray me or run away with the money once you claim it. Just
write to the bank and tell them that you want to claim it on my behalf. would be
waiting for your fruitful responce for future correpondence .You will take 25%
percent of the whole money
while 5 percent goes for the expenses towards claiming this money ,please I am
confiding in you in desperation therefore do not let another person know about this
money,only contact the bank for they will release of the money into your account
