Subject: FROM GABRIEL C.JOSEPH
Dear Sir / Ma,
Compliments.
I'm a Male,a Model Fashion Artisan. GABRIEL C.JOSEPHis my name, I'm 21 years
old, from Congo Democratic. I would like if you could assist me to retrieve
my dad's inheritance with a security company in Cotonou Benin republic, and
invest it into Model Fashion Industry, and other profitable areas in your
counrty? My dad and family died on plane crash with his Lebanese business
partner and his family too, in the year 2003 when they were travelling to
Lebanon for a festival,and I was in my marital village at Ghana with my
grand mother, by then she was alive. By then my grand mother gave me some
documents stated that some money were deposited on my name by my dad, worth
$9 million US dollars. And I have went to the company to claim the
inheritance but their office was demanding from me the demurrage charges for
clearance to enable their company release the inheritance box to me. But i
don't have such money they demanded for the clearance. Right now i'm in a
refugee camp in Cotonou Benin Republic, because my lodging money had
exhusted. Pls, let me to know if you can help me so that I will give you
other information in this regard. Await urgently at your earliest convini.
Remain blessed.
GABRIEL C.JOSEPH.
