Dear Respectful one,
Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you.I am Miss Florence Acka the only Daugther of late Mr.and Mrs.Acka My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan the economic capital of Ivory coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings on a business trip.
My mother died when I was a baby and since then my father took me so special. Before the death of my father on November 29 2003 in a private hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me on his bed side and told me that he has the sum of Twelve million five hundred thousand united state dollars(US$ 12,500,000.00) deposited in one of the Security Finance Company here in Abidjan that he used my name as his only Daugther for the next of Kin in depositing of the box as family valuables.
But due to the political problem here that cost the death of many people since 19th september 2002 here in cote d'ivoire,He instructed the security company to transfer the box that contained the money to Amsterdam-Holland Where they have branch office. Now the box that contains the money is in Amsterdam-Holland for safe-keeping. I now seek for your assistance as a God fearing person who will help me to retrieve the box that contains the money in Amsterdam-Holland and invest the money in your country.
For your information,the security company did not know the real content of the box and I don't want them to know until we retrieve the money from their custody and transferred it to your account. As it was deposited as family valuables for security reasons.
My late father also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a good foreign partner in a country of my choice who will assist me for investment purpose.
I am honourably seeking for your assistance in the following ways:
(1)To stand as my late father's foreign partner before the security company.

(3)To make arrangement for me to immigrate and come over to your country and further my education and to secure a residence permit in your country. Moreover, I am willing to offer you 20% of the total sum as compensation for your noble assistance after the successful clearing of the box from the security company and the money safely transferred into your bank account in your country.
Furthermore, Please indicate your interest for I believe that this project would be concluded within fourteen(14) days from the day you signify your
