My Dearest ONE
May the peace of gracious God be with you,please I have a problem which
I needed a help from you,I have decided to write you for help.
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 in a state of delinma and your profile pushed me to send you this mail, I am MARY KUBA,19 years old and the only daughter of my late parents MR. and MRS. KUBA JOHN. My father was a highly reputable business magnet (a
cocoa merchant) who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days.
It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his bus iness trips abroad on 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 February 12 2004 he Death he deposied the sum of eight
million, seven hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$8.700,000) left
in one of the bank here in Abidjan He further deposited the money in my name, and finally issued a written instruction to his lawyer whom he said is in possession of all the necessary legal documents to this fund and the bank.
I am just 19 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do.
This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result o f incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast. The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. 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. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after the money is in your account?
Please, Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.
Thank you so much.Mey God bless you and your family.
My sincere regards,
MARY KUBA..
