Subject: FROM Miss: AICHA NITA. PLEASE HELP ME
FROM Miss: AICHA NITA.
Hello My Dear,
Good a thing to write you. I have a proposal for you,this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will. Your good response pushed me to send you this mail, I am 20 years old and the only daughter of my late
parents Mr. and Mrs.Daniel Nita. My father was a highly reputable business man (cocoa merchant) who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days. It is sad to say that he passed away
mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad on 12th.Febuary 2002.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time.
But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 4 years old, and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on February 12 2002, he told me about the box he deposited in security company in COTE D IVOIRE and in Europe each contains the sum of Twelve million, five hundred thousand United State
Dollars.(USD$12.500,000) which he disguised and declared the boxes to contain family valuables instead of money, by this way
the company does not know the true content of the box. the main reason why you were being contacted is for you to assist claim one of these boxes or the two at the same time but it depends on your capability,if you can claim the two boxes at once it will be better,but due to the storage bill owing to the security company,i have decided to claim one of the box first menly the one in europe ,which i believe it is within your convinient reach.
The deposit document which I have in my possession carries my late father's name as the depositor, while I'm the next of kin on the same document.
I am just 20 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast.
The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. My Dear , I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards. Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.
Now permit me to ask these few questions:-
1. Can you honestly help me as your daughter?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. What percentage of the total amount in question
will be good for you after the money is in your account?
Please, Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.
You can reach me through these confidential Email address: aicha_nita3@yahoo.fr
sincere regards,
Aicha Nita.
