Dear Sir,
Compliments of the day, before I proceed, I must be grateful to introduce myself. I am Mrs aisha mohammed the wife of the late Gen. Robert mohammed of the then military government of Ivory Coast, prior to the time of crisis which is presently on I got your contact from my personal research as i am looking for whom to invest with.
Due to my position, as the son and benefficiary to the late General, I have been able to come away with a reasonable sum of money after the brutal murder of my husband by his political opponents, this money belongs to my husband and is in the total sum of 19.8 million US$ of which I have the tendency to invest it in a company with good line of products like your own company and with potential for a good capital returns, on behalf of myself and the remaining family.
Since your country is one of the good investor friendly nations in the world, I have decided to seek your assistance for me to transfer this funds to your country and run business over there, for the mutual benefit of both of us and my entire family. I would therefore like you to help me in every possible way in securing this funds in your country.
Furthermore I will like you to assist me in finding a good business that I will invest this fund.
However upon acceptance you will be required to contact me through my personal e-mail address as aisha_mohammed201@yahoo.com <http://us.f362.mail.yahoo.com/ym/Compose?To=aisha_mohammed201@yahoo.com>) for security reason in which you will be informed and get update about the current arrangement i have made so far on how to transfer the money from Bangkok-Thailand to your account through a bank account that you will open in your name there.
In view of your participation, I am ready to give you a good negotiable percentage for your assistance of which the trustee fee range in my country is between 7% of the actual money or better still commit it into a joint venture project. Be assured that you stand no risk of any kind as the fund belongs to me and the rest of my family now, of which my son is the sole benefficiary and trustee on behalf of the family.
As soon as I get your consent, I will contact my lawyer to start making arrangement on how to change the ownership of the consignment into your name, for easy transfer of the money out of there, since you will be my trustee to the transaction and thereafter transfer to your country's foreign account and i will finally come over to your country for final arrangements.
I strongly believe that associating with you to embark on this and other business ventures will derive a huge success hereafter. If you have any question do not hesitate to include
same in your reply.

MRS AISHA MOHAMMED
