Hello dearest one,
It is my pleasure to write you after much consideration since I can not be able to see you face to face at first.Being the first and the only child of my father, late Mr Mokun Kone from Freetown in Republic of Serielone a country in West Africa I am 18years of age. My father was Diamond and gold merchant in Freetown before his untimely death after his business trip to Europe,to negotiate on a business. A week after he came back from Europe, he was shot with my mother by unknown assassins.
Which my mother died, instantly, but my father died after five days in hospital, on that faithful afternoon. I didn't know that my father was going to leave me after I had lost my mother. But before he gave up the ghost, it was as if he knew he was going to die. He my father, (may his soul rest in perfect peace) he disclose to me that he deposited the sum of $5.7 million U.S dollars in a Bank in Abidjan the capital of Ivory Coast.That the money was meant for establishing a branch of his business in Abidjan - Ivory Coast. Though, according to my father he deposited the money in his own name and mentioned me in the documents as the next of kin .Before his death he adviced and instructed me to seek for a trust worthy person abroad who will help me invest and manage this money for me until i am capable to handle it.
Now I have succeeded in locating the bank in Abidjan and also confirmed the fund is in there , most honest and confidentiality. Now I am soliciting for your assistance to help me transfer out this money out from the bank to your account abroad so that you can be able to manage and invest it in any lucrative business in your country and also help me to move out from here so that I can contiune my education which stopped since my parents death.I am Waiting anxiously to hear from you so that we can discuss how you can assist me on this as my guradian since it is the only condition that the bank said this my inheritance can be release to me at this my present age or i can wait until i am upto 25 years and above.
Thanks for your kind attention and i will appreciate to receive your reply to know if you will be able to handle and manage this my inheritance for me as my guradian.Please i am on my kneelsing begging you to accept standing as my guradian so that this my inheritance be transfer out from here.
Best regards Miss Odet Kone .
