Subject: Please i need your help.
Dearest one, I am pleased to write you.It is true that we have not met before ,but please accept me like your biological daughter presently in distress in a foreign land and help me. I have a proposal for you-this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour it against your will. My name is Francis Marcory,the only son of my late father Egr Marius Marcory My father was working with Cote d'Ivoire petrol and chemical company operated in capital of Ivory coast during his days.It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously during the rebel attack on our family house in Bouake in the year 2002.Sorry to say i never knew who my mother was, according to my ground mother, she died while i was a year old,and since then my father took me so special. Before his death , he told the secretary who was with him during the attack that he has the sum of Nine million,Four hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD 9.400,000) deposited in one of the security company in Abidjan as a family treasure, he made this declaration to the company because of the security of the content of the box, the security company does not know the content of the box as money, this remains our family secret. My uncles are all interested in my late fathers properties,they have confiscated all his landed properties and houses,but does not know that this fund exist,for this reason i want to send the funds out quietly and begin a new life in your country. He further told him that he deposited the box in his name,and finally issued a written instruction to his confidant whom he said is in possession of all the necessary but legal documents to this box issued by the company. I intend investing the funds outside the shores of africa,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. 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 son? 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. I will equally give you the contact of the security company to enable you confirm my claims. Thank you so much. My sincere regards, Francis Marcory. write to me directely to marcoryfr@hotmail.com for details
