My dear one
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 Mariam umarh ,21years old and the only daughter of my
late parents Mr.and Mrs..mohamed My father was a highly
reputable busnness magnet-(a cocoa merchant)who operated in
the capital of Ivory coast during his days.
It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France
during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Febuary
2000.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected
to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled
with him at that time.
But Allah 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 2000 he called the secretary who accompanied
him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of
three million,United State
Dollars.(USD$3000 000) left in one
of the private security and trust company
He further told me that he deposited the money in my
name,and finally issued a written instruction to me
whom he said is in possession of all the necessary but
legal documents to this consignment and the company.
I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and
really don't know what to do.Now I want an a partner overseas
where I can transfer this funds. This is because I have
suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant
political crisis here in Ivory coast.The death of my father
actually brought sorrow to my life.
Sir,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 money is in your account?
Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as
possible.
Thank you so much.
My sincere regards,
Mariam mohamed
