Dear
I know this message will come to you as a surprise since we don't know each other.I apologise for the inconviniences.Hope you are in good health.Please i need your help. My name is Miss Dianne Blou. I was a medical student of the university of cocody, Abidjan in Cote d'ivoire west Africa until 2004 when my father was killed after his return from france on a business trip.It was later confirmed that he was poisoned.As his only child, his death has brought me sorrow and frustration.I'm living in difficulties
My father Dr Jean-Quassi Blou was before his untimely death a serving director with the National cocoa Exporting board and the chairman board of trustees, Nacope Cocoa farmers Co-operative society.(NCFCS). Before his death, he informed me of a fixed deposit account he has with a bank here in my country where he deposited the sum of USD9.5Million with my name as the next of kin. According to him, the money was paid to him by Nestle Foods Specialities U K and that he wants to use the money to construct an ultra- modern Medical complex were i will a start a life after graduation. After the burial of my father, i approached the bank director where the money was deposited to find out how i can have access to the money but was told precisely by the director that my father has an agreement with them which requires me to present to the bank a Guardian who must be of foriegn origin to stand on my behalf or be released to me from the age of 25 years and above. My life is in danger
here and i don't want to stay here anymore.
Why I am contacting you.
Due to the agreement my late Father had with the bank during deposit coupled with the fact that my secuity here can not be guarranteed,I hereby ask you to do me a favour by standing as my foreign Guardian and the new beneficiary of the money to enable the bank effect the transfer. Precisely i need your help in the following ways
1.To provide an account where the money will be transfered to.
2.To stand as my guardian and the new beneficairy of the fund to enable the bank make the transfer to your foriegn bank account in line with my fathers agreement with the bank.
3. To accept me in your family, love me take care of me.
4.To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to start a new life especially for me to complete my studies.You will also be the one to invest and mange the money for me until i'm able to handle it myself.
I have plans to invest this money in continuation with the investment vision of my late father, but not in this place again rather in your country.
I will give you 25% of the total sum for compensation after the sucessful transfer of the money in your safe account overseas.
If you are willing to assist me, I will gladly send you my photo and the bank related documents so that you can contact the bank with it for details.
Have a nice day and God bless.
Yours sincerely
Dianne
