My Dear,
It is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I intend to establish in your country.
Though I have not met with you before but I believe one has to risk confiding in his fellow human being to succeed sometimes in life.
I want to confide on you for a brighter future of my two sons since you are a human being like me.
There is this huge amount of Fifteen Million five hundred thousand United States dollars ($15.500.000.00) which my late husband deposited with a Bank here in Abidjan Cote D'ivoire before he was assassinated by unknown persons.
Now I decided to invest this money in your country or anywhere safe enough for security and political reasons.
I need you to help me claim and retrieve this fund from the Bank and transfer it into your personal account in your country for investment purposes you may advice us.
If you can be of an assistance to us we will be pleased to offer to you 10% Of the total fund.
You can call my son Musa for more explanation on this number: 00225 0800 6902
I await your soonest response.
Respectfully yours,
Mrs Mary Bakuma & Son Musa.
