Dear loving one,
We are sincerely very much delighted to write this message to you therefore we will like you to read it with understanding . Please we want to tell you something, we don't know you in person and we haven't meet before but we believe that one thing or the other makes people to know each other and
we are not going to lie to you so that this project will please you rather we will tell you the truth as we did and note that this is not a joke every thing is 100% legal and we know that you are not going to betray the trust we are laying on you and hope you can handle this.
I am Mrs Mariam Hassan my daughter Esther and my son Jerome my late husband was kidnapped by rebels who later killed him for about three years now we haven't heard from him and things are not going well but we thank God for this opportunity we just have now that's why we are contacting you.
When my husband was alive this company Compagnie Ivoirienne d'Electiricit ( CIE) and Soci・瘢雹蠡Ivoirienne de Raffinage (SIR) awarded a contract to him, The contract job was awarded in the year 2002 and was completed after six months and the contract sum after taxes is US$8.7Million.
Meanwhile we got information from the self fiduciary agent here in Abidjan that the payment have been paid to the account my late father provided before his death and we don't have access to the account . Now as you can see that because of the present political situation here in Abidjan it is
not safe to invest this money here in Cote d'Ivoire and I still lack total experience to handle an issue of this magnitude; hence our search for a sincere and God fearing person to trust.
First and foremost, we will want to remind you that the story as contained in our mail is just the exact picture of our present situation. The fund in question is our legitimate and legal inheritance and we have the documents that prove the source of the money .
The incessant political instability in this country in these recent times has clouded us with doubts as what really becomes our fate in view of the fund in question. Meanwhile the fund is already deposited with a self fiduciary agent here in Abidjan. All that we required of you is to know how
you can assist us to arrange on how to transfer the fund to your country and you will establish and investment on behalf of me and my children and you will also assist us till will get our resindential perment, It is also necessary to inform you that the self fiduciary agent here does not know
the real partner of my late husband that's why we write to you and hopes that you will stand for us and you will also explain to us what we need to do and what your terms will be. so that we can be able to make process to secure a high court "Affidavit" of power of Attorney on your behalf-this
will spell out your role as our official,and legal guardian and foriegn partner.
We are waiting anxiously to hearing from you.
Thanks,
Cheers and remain blessed.
Mrs Maria Hassan and children.
