Subject: My Proposal.
Greeting.
Sir,
I am Mrs Aminatu Abubaka Arikama, from Sierra Leone republic, residing in
Cote d'Ivoire. I am married to Mr Abubaka Arikama, who deals in Cocoa and
Gold business in Cote d'Ivoire for twenty five years before he died in the
year 2002. We were married for twenty years God give us a son, his name is
Abubaka Arikama Jr who is 17 now, and because of my husband love to me he
refused to marry another wife.
He died after a brief illness from food poison which lasted for only four
days. Since his death I decided not to remarry or get another child outside
my matrimonial home, my husband relatives was responsible for his death
because they want to inherit the entire legacy, I was ill and my son is
still a little boy.
Before the death of my husband we deposited the sum of US$11.8 Million,in a
suspens account with a bank here in Cote d lvoire.Since my Doctor told me
that I have a little time left (about Six months) due to cancer problem.
Having known my condition and I can not survive this cancer illness, and I
don't want to lose my only son, I decided to transfer this fund and my son
out of this country.
I took this decision because I don't want to lose every thing my husband has
worked for, and my husband relatives are not even good at all because they
are responsible for the death of my husband in other to have all his
properties and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by those that
conspired for his death and they will still kill my son if they have the
opportunity.
This is why I am taking this decision, I am not afraid of death hence I know
where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the almighty,
for he will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I don't need any
telephone communication in this regard because of my health condition also
the presence of my husband's relatives around me always that is why you have
to keep it confidential by using only e-mail to contact me, I don't want
them to know about this development.
Presently, I cannot handle the transfer procedures of this fund, both fiscal
and financially, also I cannot have access to the fund because my husband
told the bank that the fund belongs to his foreign partner, that is why am
seeking for your assistance to save the life of my son and also the fund
presently with the bank. As soon as I receive your reply of acceptance, I
will give you the contact of the bank also issues a letter of authorization
to enable the bank proceeds with the transfer of the fund to you as the
original owner.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy person, please always be
prayerful all through your life, contact me on the this email address.
Please assure me that immediately you receive this fund, you will send air
ticket to my son to meet you and continue his education while you handle the
investment until he complete his education, 30% of the total fund will be
your reward / any expense you made during the fund transfer, while 70 % will
be for my sons investment under your care.
Thanks.
May God be with you.
Mrs. Aminatu Arikama
