This money which is safely kept in the bank is our only joy and reason to be alive since you can understand the life here in cote d'ivoire is very hard. Before i give you details of the money and the bank were my late father deposited the money to enable you contact the bank for the transfer of the money into your account in your country. Then when the money its transferred into your account you make arrangement for I and my younger sister to come over your country to further our education, to invest the money in your advice and to live there with you in your country since nobody its taken care of us here in our country since the death of our parents. I promise to give you 20% of the total money when the money its transferred into your account then I come over your country to meet you.
