Dearest one
And its A Good Thing of knowing you Which I believe you will be of great
assistants to me that will make the beginning of never-ending family
relationship. Ihope that this proposal will not be an inconvenience or
embarrassment to you.I must not hesitate to confide in you this simple and
sincere business.My name is MARYAM , I am 21 years of age, the only daughter
of late Mr and Mrs MENTU ODINGA, from Nshili District of Gikomgoro Province
in Republic of Rwanda My father before his death was a prosperous Cocoa and
Gold merchant in Kigali, Republic of Rwanda before his untimely death, after
his business trip to COTONOU-BENIN REPUBLIC , to negotiate on a Cocoa and
Gold business he wanted to invest in COTONOU-BENIN REPUBLIC . My mother died
when I was little ,and since then my father took me so special.
Before his death on 12th November 2002 he told me that he has the sum of
Eighteen million,Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars.(USD$18.500.000)
deposited in a security company in COTONOU-BENIN REPUBLIC , that he wanted
to use his fund to invest his cocoa business in Ivory Coast.After the burial
of my late father i came down to COTONOU and went to the security company
where the fund is deposited with all the documents regarding to the deposit
of the fund that was given to me by my late father. But because of the
unstable political problems here last year I instructed the security company
to transfer the consignment to their affilliate office in Europe, the fund
is presently in Europe now waiting for clearance.
I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know
what to do.Now I want you to help me claim and transfer the fund for
investment in your country because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a
result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast.The death of my
father actually brought sorrow to my life. I am in a sincere desire of your
humble assistance in this regards.Your suggestions and ideas will be
highlyregarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions: 1. Can you
honestly help me. 2. Can I completely trust you? 3. What percentage of the
total amount in question will be good for you after the money is in your
custody.Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as posible. Thank
you so much and God bless you. My sincere
regards,
Miss MARYAM MENTU
