Subject: Dear friend,your urgent reply will be highly appreciated
Dear friend,
Please take a little time and read my mail,it may seems i'm disturbing you,but if you do help me,god will bless you for my sake.It is with tears that i'm writing you this mail,my name is Mariana Helou married to Mr Josef Helou,who died in a rocket blast in Labanon.this happened when my two daughters were kill in the same rocket blast at our home in labanon my husband and my last child have been in Benin Republic for a long time.He is one of the successful men that sale used cars in Benin Republic.
This happened one early morning when the elder brother called him from Labanon that our two daughters have been killed in a rocket that flew into our home,we cried bitterly and we make arragement to travel together to bury my two daughters who were in high school.after three days of agony,painful and sorrowful inccident,i develop heart failure and hypertites and it got worst and was admitted in Hospital,so my bad health did not permit me to travel with my husband to bury my daughters,which made me and my son to stay behind while my husband travelled.After three days my husband arrived in Labanon,he was so bitterly frustrated and i heard that he went out crying and calling for peace to rain,before a rocket hit him and his elderly brother who is running after him too was also killed.i have cried and cried and cried and there was no power in me,things changed for me to worst,i have no friend or relation who cares for me any longer, everybody deserted me.
My reason of writing you this mail is due to what i have been passing through since few months i lost everything,my late husband brother's here who are all muslims have taken all my late husband left behind and left me with nothing,they sold his company and took all his property and his account informations from my home when i was not around and diverted all the money to there account.There is money my late husband deposited in a Bank here in Benin Republic,USD6.5Million, which we are planning to use open up an investment in hong lonk before his death.i have passed all the necessary documents partaining to this deposited money to my lawyer.
The problem i'm having now is that the bank director have told me that instead of me withdrawing this money here and be at a risk of loosing it to my wicked husband brothers,and he also said that the world bank will not give us any approval if the money is not going to be transfer abroad,he told me that it will be better that i look for a a foreigner that i trusted so much that will work with my lawyer to make the transfer of the money to his/her account, so that the person will help me fly me abroad to get a proper treatment.
Please all i need from you is your acceptance and assurance.please do not refuse this task, saved me and my only son,the almighty God will bless you forever.when you replyed,i will give you contact of the lawyer were i kept the documents and the contact of the bank also and details of what to do.
Sincerely yours,mariana.
