Subject: From Miss Julie
Dearest Friend,
I am Miss Julie Benson an average-aged girl of 25 years of age.A Persian of Cote d'Ivoire origin.steying in Abidjan, where i was schooling before the rebels airstrike in my town that razed my fathers office building to void and caused his business a tremendous setback after killing him and a few staff including my mommy and my pretty brother,CAMBU.
The reason i am contacting you is to find out if I can invest my fathers money in your line of business,since It has become necessary and inevitable for me to diversify the scope of our investment and leave Abidjan for a more stable business climate like your country; knowing that security of life and property can no longer be guaranteed back in Cote d`ivoire, especially now that most of my father opposition party believe i was on seat the day our house and office complex was razed down and so think we are dead by now.
My late father deposited ($10,000000)in to a Safe Deposit Box. in a security company in EUROPE he entrusted the money to a DIPLOMATIC SECURTY ORG.that can deliver the consignment to any destination i want now without any hiccupps ,since they are aware that i am still at the abidjan and have asked me if i have a relative whom they can despatch the consignment and a Diplomat accompany the consignment to your country without screening or the money being detected by any currency detecting machine at your Local Airport ,because of the special packaging and the privileges,ie diplomatic imunity he will be accorded at your local airport when he arrives coupled with the D/L TAG on the luggage.
Meanwhile as i am writing to you now,the diplomat does not know the real content of the box,it is only me and the diractor that knows that the box is cash.....Do not let them know untill you receive the box in your country. Have in mind that your effort will never be in vain.
So let me have your infomation so we can negotiate on the commensurate percentage of the total sum i shall give to you for assisting me to see this deal through and to enable the Diplomat contact you and deliver the Safe Deposit Box to you as soon as he arrives.
Thanking you in anticipation of your urgent response
Thanks and God bless.
Sincerely,
Miss Julet Benson.
