Subject: Can you honestly help me as your daughter?
Dear,
Good a thing to write you. I have a proposal for you-this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will.I am Delphine Samoura,26years old and the only daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs Samoura.My father was a highly reputable business magnate-(a Grandnut merchant)who operated in the capital City of Senegal during his days.It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Feb.2003.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his whotravelled with him at that time. But God knows the truth!
My mother died when I was just 4 years old,and since then my father
took me so special. Before his death on Febuary 12, 2003 he called the
secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told her that he had a sum of $4.5million US DOLLARS (Four Million Five Hundred Thousand USA
DOLLARS)kept in One trunks box as a vault deposit with a private security company in Europe. He also said that the security company does not know the content of the safe Box.He decleared it as family treasure and used my name to Deposit the money as his first daugther for next of kin. He also explained to her that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates, that I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money to and use it for investment purposes.
I want you to assist me in re-locating this deposit into your position
overseas as a beneficiary,and also use it for our joint ivestment
purpose on my behalf.I am just 26 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Senegal.The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life coupled with the hardship,I am passing through my only uncle who wants me dead because he want to take-over all my late father's wealth.
Dearest one,I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this
regards your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.Now permit
me to ask these few questions:-
1. Can you honestly help me as your daughter?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you
after the deposit is retrived and re-located to your position.
Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible through my
private mail:(dsamoura5@yahoo.co.uk)
Thank you so much.
My sincere regards,
Miss Delphine Samoura
