Subject: Greetings our dear One,
Greetings our dear One,
I am delighted to write to you. I am sorry if this mail will come to you as an embarrassment or a surprise, I just felt like empting myself to you, to confide in you, as am faced with totalfrustration and hardship. i say may this mail find you well and all the blessings of the Almighty Lord shall follow you in all your endeavours of life.
I am Charles Toure, 23 years old, I am contacting you on behalf of myself and my younger sister Elizabeth whom i am now staying with in the refugee camp in my own country Cote D Ivoire. We are now orphans.
My father late Mr Lawrence Toure, when he was alive deposited the sum of Usd $3.4 m (Three Million four Hundred Thousand American Dollars) in a bank under a "fixed suspense excrow account" here which was the money he realised after making sales of cocoa and diamonds and used my name as the only heir alive to be the next of kin in respect to the promises he made to my late mother before her death on the hospital bed that he will do everthing possible
to make sure that me and my younger sister Elizabeth do not suffer or be maltreated in any way even after his death, this he has kept till his last minute in this wicked world which we live
today.When i went to visit my father at the hospital before his death, he told me everything about this money and told me where to collect all the relevant documentary proof regarding to the deposit, but he stressed out that i need the assistance of a foreign partner who
will assist me to claim the money because according to him he did insert a clause on the money that his foreign business partner who is also the beneficiary of the said fund will be coming for the claim but his name and contact was withheld from the bank, i believe my father did it this way for security purpose or he must have confided to some one whom he was unable to disclose to me before his death.
Now, on one occassion when i visited the bank to see if i can claim some money for medical treatment of my sister Elizabeth, I was denied access to withdraw from the money by the bank, in response they told me that my father entered an agreement with the bank that the money will not be withdrawn or tampered with until it gets to his foreign partners account abroad. With regards to this, i was shown the agreement entered between my father and the bank where i confirmed it and in ddidtion it was clearly stated that i the next of kin or the depositor who is my father will be the one to appoint the account to where the money will be transfered, since my dad is dead i will be the one to do just that .This has compel me to contact you in this regards as the long awaited beneficiary of the fund in the bank by forwarding your viable and legitmate bank account details which i will submit to the bank with your contact informations including your direct telephone number as
belonging to my late father's foreign partner and the co-beneficiary of the money as well for the money to be transfered into your bank account believing that you will not sit on this money when it is confirmed in your account.
Finally My dear , i want to assure you that this transaction is risk free because it is our legal inheritance from our late father which we have the proofs with us.We do not have the access of international call for we are presently financially handicapped, so I kindly beg you to reply me as soon as posible for us to have better discussions of more understanding. I say a big thanks to you and may the almighty Lord bless you and guide you in all your life endeavours as i await your urgent response.
Yours Sincerely
Charles & Elizabeth Toure
