Subject: Dear Respectful
Good Day,
My name is Miss Cythian Akassi,the daugther of late Mr.Andrew Akassi.I am writing this letter to ask for your sincere co-operation .My family live in nothern part of my country Republic of Ivory Coast.My father was the General exports controller of the Tropical Woods in Republic of Ivory Coast.The Tropical Woods is one of the Main exports of Republic of Ivory Coast.
Meanwhile my father was murdered because of his vital position in the goverment by unknown people on 15th of March,2007. And my mother died when I was 13 years old and since then, my father took me so special and provided me with the best of everything.However before the death of my father on 15th of March,2007.He specifically made it clear to me that he had a foreign account here in Republic of Ivory Coast where he deposited up to the sum of 3.4 Million Dollars (Three Million Four Hundred Thousand United States Dollars)and in my father's " WILL " I'm the next of kin since I'm the only child.
I contacted you because of my need to deal with persons whom my family and I have had no previous personal relationships,since the murderers of my father are yet to discover,I have been subjected to all sorts of harassment and intimidation with lots of negative reports from the authorities about the murderers of my late father and the traitors who always harass me all the time.It is in view of this that, I seek your co-operation and assistance to transfer the fund the sum of 3.4 Million Dollars, being the very last of my family fund in my possession and control. My only hope now is this cash which I intend to use and start a new life in a country where there is economic stability and human right.
Please I beg you not to see this as one of those e-mail letter you received from internet liars, I want to assure you that,The fund will be transfered to your account and there will be no problem. This transaction is 100% risk free and legal. The money is my inheritance from my late father and has no criminal background.
The bank here knows that it is inherited from my late father and can give reference(s) anywhere if there is need to do so.I just want to leave this country immediate to establish the money in a safer country where there is economic stability and human right.Please do not worry yourself for anything as everything is legal, pure and 100% risk free. I am a young girl that has a bright future and wouldn't do anything that will jeopardize my future. I do not want anything illegal in my life,everything will be concluded with transparency, understanding and sincerity between both of us.
Moreover, I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your effort/input after the successful transfer of this fund into your nominated account and 5% for expences.Furthermore, you indicate your decision towards assisting me,then I will give you more information about this fund.
Thanks and God bless!
Best regards,
Cythian Akassi
