Subject: FROM MISS TATIANA KENNETH
My Dear,
i am so sorry if i may interrupt or violate any rule in any way,actuallyi am contacting you for a great favour.
First and foremost and brief self introduction,I am Miss Tatiana Kenneth,23years old and the only daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs. Robert Kenneth.
My father was a highly reputable business magnate-(a cocoa merchant)who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Feb. 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 11 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 her that he had a sum of $8.5 million US DOLLARS (eight million five hundred thousand USD) in a trunck box deposited in a security company here in Abidjan, Ivory Coast as family valuables for security reasons.
He also said he used my name to Deposit the consignment with the security company as his only daughter, as well as the next of kin to the consignment.
He also explained to! me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business assocaites, That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money to and use it for investment purposes.
I want you to assist me in clearing this consignment as i explain to you that this consignment was deposited in the security company as family valuables .
I am just 23 years old and a high school leaving certificate holder and really don't know what to do.Now I want an account overseas where I can transfer this funds. 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.
Dearest one,I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.
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 account?
Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible, as well I will like you to forward your private telephone and fax number so that i will give you the contact of the security company where this consignment was deposited as family valuables for security reasons.
Thank you so much.
My sincere regards,
Miss Tatiana Kenneth
