From Queen Kobenan
Dearest One,
It is a Good thing to write you. I have a proposal for you this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will. I am Queen Kobenan, 18 years old and the only daughter of my late parents Chief.Johnson Kobenan. My father was a highly reputable Gold miner in Ghana and Ivory coast during his days.It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad the year 12th.Febuary 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 4 years old,and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on Febuary 12th 2004 he told the secretary who was with him at the hospital and told him that he has the sum of three million,eight hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$3.800,000) left in one of the leading finance firm based in Cote d' ivoire.
He further told him that he deposited the money in my name,and finally said that the consignment be released to me as the beneficiary, with the aid of a foreign partner. I am just 18 years old and a secondary school graduate and really don't know what to do. Now i want to relocate oversea's and need you to be my foreign beneficiary to the consignment so you can help me in the release and transfer of the consignment from the security company.
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.
Sir,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 as your daughter?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. I have map out 15% for your assistance and 5% for any expenses that you will incure during the process of transfer is it okay by you?.
Please,Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible. Thank you so much.
My sincere regards,
Queen Kobenan.
