CAN WE CONFIDE IN YOU?
Dearest Beloved,
Please I am sorry for contacting you this way since we havent met nor know each other before. I got your email when surfing the internet looking for a reliable person who will help me and my sister in transferring the fund which our late father deposited in a bank here in Abidjan Ivory coast West Africa.
My Late father Dr Malik Mustafa was a wealthy farmer in Sierra Leone and well successful in business before he was killed along with my mum by his associate in France. I and my sister left our country because the killers of our parents were highly connected with the present government of my country. We have to run away and now we are in a refugee camp here in Abidjan where the money was deposited.
My name is Sayid Mustafa and my sister is Alima.I am 21 yrs and Alima is 19, we went to the bank for the US$4 million (Four Million USA Dollars) deposited by my late father .The bank refused to release any money because they said the must respect the agreement they had with my late father that state, (the money can only be transferred to a foreign account through his associate which he did not disclose any name to them)
The agreements and deposit certificate are with me, but I am contacting you to be a helper to us. We want you to contact the bank on our behalf as our late father associate and help us transfer this money into your account, then immediately the money is transferred you shall make arrangement for us to come to your country to get our money and for investment. You shall guide us in the kind of investment to do and also get us a resident permit in your country because we want to leave the refugee camp.
You will have 15% of the US$ 4 Million if you help us transfer this money and bring us out from this country. We decided to offer you this because of the expenses you will incur during the transaction. With our approval the bank will transfer the money to your account and we shall send to you the documents.
Now we want to know from you if you can help us in this project? Can we really count on you and trust you? I want you to know the transfer is 100% free risk only if you will co-operate with the bank and this money is not stolen one, therefore you have nothing to worry about.
If you have decided to help please write me back through my private email mustafa2007@jmail.co.za With your details informations , your Telephone number and address. Please I need a straight response from you. We are really suffering here and we want you to come to our aide. May the Lord bless you if you have decided to help.
Thanks
Sayid and Sister.
