Dear VICTIMNAME ,
I have interest of investing in your country as such I decided to establish contact with you for assistance as soon as you receive the money, which is already with a security company in Europe.There are two basic things i would want you to assist me in;(1) Helping me as a front to collect these consignment/funds from the security company in Europe.(2) Helping me to carry out feasibility study on areas/choice of investment you deem best for me.This is because of my inability to travel out of the country which i am presently in a house arrest with my only child left which i will explain better to you upon the receipt of your acceptance.
My husband retired as financial consultant and was the last personal financial adviser to the ex- head of state before his demise and have no intention of carrying out any further investment programme in my country for security reasons.
All his assets had been seized by the government but i thank God that they are not aware that he deposited some money in a security company in europe before he was killed and the time for the withdrawal of the money is due.meanwhile i have been contacted by the security company to come up for the withdrawal but hence i have been restricted from travelling out of my country ,i hereby seek your immense assistance.The government of my country is very bad and wicked theykilled my husband and two children with timing bomb last two years and yet that are still keeping me i a house arrest.
But my most happiness is that are not aware of the money in europe because they would have seized it like they did to every of our family belongs
They did not alow me to make telephone calls or receive telephone calls.Meanwhile i will use part of this money to suport charity organisations ,motherless babies home and the poor all over the world as soon as i arrive in your country when i will be free from my bondage .
Note:If you can not travel to Europe for then clearing of theconsignment,i can still make an arrangement for the delivering of the money as a diplomatic luggage to your door step .I have told the security company that a family friend shall be coming for the claims,therefore as soon as i hear from you i shall forward your name with all the necessary documents for the release of the funds/consignment to you in good faith without trouble.
Kindly enclose your private telephone and fax numbers for easy communication between you and security company.you are my hope please quickly help me for am fast dying over in silence .May Godbless you for assisting me.
Thanks,
Yours sincerely,
Mrs Aweles Omas
