Subject: From Jessica kante
Dearest One,
Greetings and I pray that this mail will meet you in good health, I am aware
that this mail will come to you by surprise but good a thing to write you
because I really need your help, I am Miss Jessica Kante, the only daughter
of my late parents Chief.and Mrs kante.
My father was a highly reputable business man (a cocoa and gold merchant).It
was sad to say that he passed away mysteriously after a business trips
abroad. Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been
masterminded by one of my uncle ,but God knows the truth!
Sorry to say that I never know the caring of my mother because she died when
I was just 4 years old which made me the best man for my late father and he
never hide anything from me. Before he made the trip to France that lead to
my misfortune(his death)He called me, explained to me the reason why he will
make the trip...and also told me that he has the sum of Nine million, Five
hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$9.500,000)deposited in one of the
security company's here in Abidjan Ivory coast West Africa, which he
disguised and declared the box to contain family valuables instead of
money, by this way the company does not know the true content of the box.
The deposit document which I have in my possession carries my late father's
name as the depositor, while I'm the next of kin on the same document.I
evacuated from Sierra Leone last week because the deposit that was made by
my late father secretly in Abidjan,Cote d'Ivoire and also with the fear of
my greedy relations.
I arrived in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire same last week but Ivory Coast or Cote
d'Ivoire is a French speaking country and as a result of Language barrier
am more or less confused on who to confide in over my inherited
wealth,that's why I am confiding in you because is my wish to evacute and
relocate out entirely from Africa with my inherited wealth to start a new
life.
I have no documentory problems with the security company but the only
problem is the nature of deposit that was made by my late father which I
will explain to you once you declare your williness to assist me.Really, the
death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. 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 this few questions:-
1. Can you honestly help me?
2. Can I completely confide in you without any breach of trust?
3. Surely you will be highly compensated but I need to know what you need me
to offer you in returns of your assistance to me ?
Please feel free to get back to me if you are willing to assist me with a
sincere mind.
Thanks and I await your response .
Yours Sincerely
Miss Jessica Kante
