Dear One
Greetings to you. I thank God that I have come across you and believe you will not turn down my request. My name is Miss Suzanna Duke, I am 20 years old girl i am from Bouke in Cote D'ivoire, west Africa.I became an orphan last year when my parents were brutally murdered in Bouke in the northen part of Cote D'ivoire(Ivorycoast) being my home town. I was in the school when the rebel new force went on rampage and killed people in the town suspected for supporting the government of Gbagbo. I was taken from the school by a good samaritan to Abidjan, where I am now on refuge. I am now staying with the old woman I call aunty, she is 81 years old and she has been trying her best for me I am confused and i dont know what to do to claim my late father's deposit in security which he left behind in my name as the next of king or legal beneficiary of the said inheritance in the custody of the security company here in Abidjan being the economical capital of this country Ivory Coast.
He deposited a sum of ($10,000,000)(Ten million) dollars only. This deposit was to be sent to his business partner in Europe but since the crisis they lost contact and I dont know about him and I dont know about their transaction before he died but all i know for now is that the fund is left here in my name clearly stipulated by my father that i am the next beneficiary in the absence of him ok. I am appealing to you in the name of God to help me retrieve my inheritance fund so that I can come over to your country to begin my new life as well as resuming my education anew after moving the fund from the security company custody here anyway. I believe you are a reliable person that will not sit on the money and will provide a safe place where I can move to continue my studies.
Meanwhile, I promise to give you 20% of the total amount when the transfer is made. That will cover all your inconveniences and if you make any expenses while helping me.Please send to me your telephone no. and let me know if you can reliably keep this only thing I have left in life with you safely.Why i want to leave here for western world where i can restart my life is because of everyday political and economic instability and civil unrest as well as looting and raping which is the order of the day now. Pls. if you know that you are going to be very honest with me do let me know by your email then you can contact me directly through my private email address for security reasons pls. suzaduke020@yahoo.com
I wait to hear from you soon,
Yours faithfully,
Miss Suzanna
