My Dearest One.
I went through your profile and decided to write you on this. However, it is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will in my earnest search for a reliable individual who can assist me to make this transaction. With my believe in God that you will never let me down.
I am 20 years old girl now; I was born on the 5th of January 1987 to the family of Koffi. and my father name is Mr. Paule Koffi, he is a very wealthy gold and cocoa merchant who based in Accra and Abidjan respectively, and my mothers name is Mrs. Sheila Koffi. and I am their only child. well when I was a kid I went to a private school and things were going on well for me and my parents, but my mother died on the 21st October 1998 , My father took me so special because I am motherless. And he showers all his love on me and promised me that he will never have another woman because he did not want me for any problem. But as faith may had it my father got dead last year. But before the death of my father on the 12th June 2006 in a private hospital here in Abidjan,
He called me secretly to his bed side and told me that he kept a sum of $7.500 000 (Seven million five hundred thousand united states dollars) in a bank in Abidjan Cote DIvoire. Meanwhile that he used my name as the next of kin in deposit of the fund. He also explained to me that it was because of this money he was poisoned by his business partner and that I should look for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I would transfer this money and use it to complete my education and for investment.
Please, I am honorably soliciting your kind assistance as follows.
1) To provide a bank account where this money will be transferred into.
2) To serve as the guardian of these funds, since I am 20 years old.
3) To make arrangement for me in your country to continue my educational career and to procure me a residential permit in your country.
I am inclined to offer you 10% of the total sum as a mode of compensation for your effort after the successful transferring of these funds to your nominated account overseas. I am expecting to hear from you as soon as
May Almighty God bless you as you do care for me Amen?
Best regard
Miss Florence Koffi.
