Subject: Re: FROM OMAR PRISCA
Dearest One,
Good day, how are you and your family? I hope fine? Please, I am sorry to
bother you with
my problem. I know that it's not by mistake that I am contacting you but by
the special
grace of God. I am Omar Prisca, 17years old and the only child of my late
parents late
{Chief and Mrs. Gabriel Omar} My mother died when i was a baby.
My father established his business in Accra Ghana, and he died shortly of
heart attack,
his death has now made me an orphan and i am exposed to danger. Before the
unfortunate
death of my father,he told me about some money {$9.5 million U.S.Dollars}
and gold
dust which he kept inside two metallic boxes that he deposited with a
Security Company
here in Accra Ghana as a family treasure. Since the death of my father, my
uncles have
sent me out of our house and collected most of my late fathers properties
except this
money that they do not know about, they said that i am a female child that i
do not have
any right in the family.
I am presently taking shelter in a church with a certain pastor and his
family. My
father said he used my name as his only child as his next of kin to the
deposit and in
case he fails to make it that I should take care of myself and get someone
to help
invest the money for me. I have all the legal documents with me here and
the key to the
boxes, my father did not disclose the content of the two trunk boxes to the
security
company to avoid the officials from raising eye brows to it. Presently I
have contacted
the security company about my claim of the trunk boxes but the security
company told me
that my father made an agreement with the company management that they
should not
release the two trunk boxes to me without a foreign partner that is why i am
seeking for
your assistance to help me stand before the company as my foreign
beneficiary partner or
my guardian to receive the trunk boxes in your country so that i can come
over to meet
you and continue my education.
Please help me and stand as my guardian and contact the security company.
I want you to come down here to be sure of what i am saying and after the
transaction, i
will go back with you After you have help me get my inheritance. I am
willing to offer to
you 15% of the total sum as a compensation for your help and you will also
help me with
the investment of this money since i do not have any idea of investment
Expecting your soonest respond.
Thank you and God bless.
Omar Prisca.
