FROM Miss Herita Ake
12 BP 1046 ABIDJAN COTE D IVORIE
WEST AFRICA
Dearest One
My Name is Herita Ake, I am only Daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs.Patrick Ake, My father was a highly reputable busnness man(A COCOA DEALER) who operated in the economic capital(Abidjan) of Ivory coast during his days.I'm a girl. It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Febuary 2004.
Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time. But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 6 years old,and since then my father took me so special.
Before his death on Febuary 12 2004 he called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of US$5.400.000.(FIVE MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) left in a security company .He further told him that he deposited the money with my name,.I am a girl just 20 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do.
Now I want an account overseas where I can transfer this funds and after the transaction I will come over and by your help I could settle down and plan my future. This is 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.I wish to invest under your care please.Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.But permit me to ask these few questions:
1. Can you honestly help me as you would do to your own relation?
2. Can I completely trust you as a reliable person? .
3.What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after the money has been transfered into your account?
Moreover, while I continue with my education I will like to invest my money into lucrative business but I need you to put me through .Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible. Immedaitely I confirmed your willingness then I will tell you how we will go about the transaction.
Yours sincerely,
Miss Herita Ake
