Subject: From David
Dear,
I know that this mail may come to you as a surprise. My name is David Djedjess from Congo Republic. But I am presently living in (Ivory coast - Cote d'Ivoire). I am 23 yrs old, a second year student of Medicine before I stop schooling due to the sudden death of my parents. Since no prearrangement was made before the sudden death of my parents in a motor accident, most of our belonging has been confiscated by my weaked uncles whose love of wealth has driven to lost of common sense. Since after the sudden death of my parents, i've learnt a lesson of the real responsibilities of life. Here i am making vital decisions for my future. I had to contact you regardless of the fact that we have not known each other personal, to assist me as my guardian. Based on the outcome of bank officials advice on the deposit account of my late father when i visited for claims.
I prayed over this issue first before my mind was made up to contact you. I really need your help and assistance to help me move US$16,500,000.00 (Sixteen million five hundred thousand United states dollars ) over to your country for investment and to enable me to continue with my education in your country.
I came to this country because of this deposit my late father Dr George Djedjess made with an international bank here in this country. I have all the certificates of the deposit of this money. I have been to this bank with all this deposit documents and the bank has confirmed them okay, but based on an agreement my late father made with this bank on the day he deposited this money in their bank, it was stated that I am the next of kin. But incase my father died I should present to this bank my late father's foreign business partner who should stand as the rightful beneficiary of this money before this money will be released to me when I get to the age of 25 years old.
Because the agreement says that the money is for onward investment, they told me that my claims are welcomed but they must have to follow the guides of the agreement which says i have to present foreign investor's bank account coordinates of any chosen business partner of mine for transfering the money into it. For this reason I am contacting you.
My late father made this agreement with this bank because he did not want any pointing fingers on me concerning this money when he died. I know that my late father must have had someone in mind before he made this agreement with this bank. But my problem was that my late father did not live to tell me who this his foriegn business partner is before he died. I got all this information some weeks after the funeral service of my late father when I was going through his documents. I took all this documents and come to Cote d'Ivoire. I have taken all this documents to the bank as ealier mentioned and they confirmed and approved that this money is deposited in their bank.
Now my father is dead and I am only 23 yrs old. I do not know who is my late father's foreign business partner. This the main reason why I am writing you this mail. I was only lucky that no name was given to this bank as my late father's foreign business partner. For this reason the bank is ready to release this money to me when I give them any name as my late father's foreign business partner. The bank is ready to transfer this money into any bank account of my choice.
I want you to stand as my late father's foreign business partner because since the death of my father, this bank cannot give me access to make any withdrawl or transfer any money from this account until I present to them my late father's foreign business partner. I really need your help to assist me with this problem. I have stopped schooling since the death of my parents. I also will like to relocate to your country to continue my education. And I need your help too to invest this money into good area of business.
All you need to do is to contact this bank and give them a good bank account where this money will be transferred. I will give you every information you may need after hearing from you. Or If you want to come to me here, it will be good if not, you can as well send just your bank account details so that i can submit it to bank for transfer of the money into it. After the money is transferred into your bank account, you will assist me to come to you and there you shall get me school accomodation to further my education where you will also help me to invest this money.
In you reply, please tell me more about yourself, are you married with children? what do you do for a living? Waiting for your prompt response. This is real and risk free.
Remain bless.
Yours sincerely
David.
