HELLO LOVER OF GOD,
I am Jones Williams 23 male a native of Isreal. I have lost both parents including my only sister in a drastic incident which have prevented me from my dreams of graduating as a medical student..they were all murdered by the Rebanon rebel leaders in my country.
I have in my possession the sum of $ 15. million usd, also with relevant certificates of proof. this was kept in a security company for safe keeping.
It was purposely meant for erecting a modern ultra hospital after i might have graduated in my name in Cabo Verde, Now i am in Praia where i am seeking visa to your country for the security of my life and to invest this fund into a lucrative business in which i will want you to assist me as i have no experience in business while i will continue my education.
Hence i have contacted you after going through your country's profile for your assistance to help me retrieve this money and invest wisely in your country..
I hopefully expect a good answers from you so that i can update you on process and procedures to follow in this transaction which i can say,its based on mutual trust and understanding..
I hope this mail will not be a surprise to you but accept it in kind heart and help me for the sake of humanity,as i assure you that it is 100% risk free .. and please endeavour to keep this very confidential for security purpose..
I wait your mail or better still you can reach me on this E-mail id: joneswilliams_0@yahoo.fr
Best regards and God bless you.
