Hello VICTIMNAME,
Good day and how are you? I hope that you are alright? I than k you very much for your mail.I am writing to tell you that I am genuine and that you can really trust me.I am expecting to hear from you so that I can give you details.
Thanks and have a nice day,
Miss Nadege Levis.
I apologize for the late reply.
Last year I received an email about an inheritance in Cote d'Ivoire. Even though I paid almost £2500 ($5000) in fees to Barrister Eze, I have not yet received the money.
I don't want to get burnt again.
Can I really trust you?
