Dear Respectful,
Attention,
I am Susana Williams, the only daugther of late Mr and Mrs Susana Williams. My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan, the economic capital of Ivory Coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates in one of their outings on a business trip.
My mother died when I was a baby and since then, my father took me so special. Before the death of my father on July 2003 in a private hospital here in Abidjan, he secretly called me on his bedside and told me that he has the sum of Ten million, five hundred thousand US doll(US$10,500,000)in a trunk box as family valuables which he in a Security company here in Abidjan, that he used my name as his only daugther for the next of kin in depositing the box and that the security company is not aware of the contents of the box.He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose such as real estate management or hotel management. Sir, I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways:
1) To provide a bank account into which this money would be transferred to and assist me in retrieving the box. (2)To serve as a guardian of this fund since I am only 24 years old (3) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education and to secure a resident permit for me in your
country.

Furthermore, you indicate your options towards assisting me as I believe that this transaction would be concluded within fourteen (14) you signify interest to assist me.
Anticipating hearing from you soon.
Thanks and God bless.
Best regards,
Susana Williams.
