SORRY FOR BOTHER YOU DEAR ......... ,
I'm very sorry to bother you with my E-mail.But I want you to understand that I truely need your assistance to this great offer I'm offering you from the source of my mind.Before anything I want to use this opportunity to introduce myself.
My name is Miss Swann williams, I am 22 years old from Sierra Leone, presently am residing inside catholic refugee camp in Dakar Senegal as i do not have anybody nor family to take care of me, or if you can adopt me as your Child or business partner if possible and manage the money for me, I am the only daughter of my parents. My father died on a fatal motor accident on the 6th March 2001, on his way to see my sick mother at hospital where she was admitted for Cancer treatments, she also gave up when she heard about the news of the death of my father in two days time and hospital where she was (General Hospital here in Sierra leone),may their gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
Before the death of my father, he had willed part of his Real Estate and the total amounts of(€ 5,500,000.00) (Five Million five hundred thousand euro ) to me. Now at his death,and because things have become very hard for me paying my school fees and taking care of my other needs, so, I went to the Bank in Dakar Senegal where this money was deposited.
I was shocked when the Manager of the Bank explained to me that I will not be able to withdraw from the money,because my father had put a clause on the will, saying that before I will be given access to the money, I will either have to be 27 years old or above, I will be given access to the money,if I get married before the age of 27 years,in which case,my husband will be legible to collect the money on my behalf.
But today I am only 22 years. And I have no access to the money till I'm 27 years which is the more reason why I am contacting you to stand as my husband or if you are married man or womane you can claim this money on my behalf.If I can trust you, I will need your assistance in this regard please. I will want you to stand in as my own husband even if you are married already you can still claim this money on my behalf because I will provide all necessary documentation of my late father and a marriage certificate between you and I to show the Bank that we're legally married before the Senegalese High Court herein Dakar Senegal.
As soon as I hear from you I will send you the Bank contact information, so you can contact and demand the payment of your wife's money to you. I will follow it up from here, providing him with the necessary marriage certificate and other documents, to authenticate our union. Should you be interested in helping me, please write back to me.
I hope that we shall discuss how you want remunerated when you get back to me.For my part, I shall be more than willing to part with 35% of the total sum to you while 10% will be mapped out for any expenses to receive the money from the Bank where this was deposited that is to let you know that you will help me both financially and with your honest mind to enable me get the necessary documents that would back this deal.
Please remember that I am writing you this email purely on the ground of trust.While this transaction last, we must be able to put emotions aside and face it, perhaps after everything, we might find a need for that if you are still single?.I will be waiting to hear from you.
Yours Truly,
Miss Swann williams
