Subject: VERY IMPORTANT MAIL
Good Day
I am mrs Ruth Azobe from Botswana. I am married to Dr.Stanley Azobe who worked with Botswana embassy in Leshoto for nine years before he died. We were married for eighteen years with a child. My Husband died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $4,865,000,00 million dollars (Four million Eight hundred and sixty five thousand U.S.Dollars) in a bank in Abidjan, the economic capital of Cote D'Ivoire (Ivory Coast).
Recently, my Doctor told me that I will not last for the next three months due to cancer Problem. Although what disturbs me most is the stoke.
Having known my condition I had decided to donate part of this fund to motherless babies home or to a God fearing individual that will utilize this money to the glory of God. The other part will be to take care of my only child for better future. I took this decision because my only child is still young and can not manage this fund very well on his own hence I don't want him to stay with my husband's relations. I had found out that their hands is in my husband's death and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by evil men. I don't want a situation whereby this money will be used in an ungodly manner, hence the reason for taking this bold decision. As soon as I receive your reply I shall introduce you to the bank and give you the contact of the bank in Abidjan where my husband deposited the consignment. I will instruct them to transfer the fund to your norminated account if you assure me that you will be good to my son. Any delay in your reply will give me
room in looking for another person for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein and you will take care of my only child. Hoping to hear from you soon
Best regards,
Mrs Ruth Azobe
