Subject: How are you today? Hope all is well.
Dearest Beloved,
How are you today? Hope all is well.
I am Mrs. Anita Williams Kokou from Ivory Coast. I was married to Late Cheif
Williams kokou who was a contractor with the government of Cote D'Ivoire
before he died after few days in the hospital.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $14.500 Million with
a Bank in Cote D lvoire. Presently this money is still in the custody of
the Bank here in Cote DIvoire.My Doctor told me that it is very likely i
will die within the next 3 months due to A Blood cancer {LUCAMIA}.
I have decided to donate the money for charity to you since i do not have a
child to inherit it and it better i do not die leaving the money here
without it reaching the poor and the lessprivilaged ones in the society.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall tell my bank to transfer the money
to you. Again i need this information to you, (Your full name and your
address) so that i will tell my bank to transfer my money to you through
Westen Union money transfer or through your bank account.
Looking forward to hear from you soon.
Mrs. Anita Williams Kokou
