Subject: From Miss Joy Obiyo.
My Dear
Good thing to write you. I search for an honest one who will help me after series of problems that befall me since the death of my late parents, so I prayed to God before sending you this message, that God will touch your heart to help me out. I know that this will not be an inconvenience or
embarassment to you.
I am Miss Joy Obiyo, the only daughter of my late parents Mr. Obiyo Odinga. My father worked with Sierra Leonian Embassy in South Africa for 23 years. Before his death on the 10th Novemeber 2004, he called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told him that he deposited a trunk
box containing Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars ( USD$11,500,000 ) with one of the leading security company here in Abidjan Ivory coast West Africa . He further told him that he deposited the trunk box in my name as his next of kin to inherit it in case he die.
My mother died during child birth when I was just 6 years old, and since then my father took me so special and ensured that he train me to the last level of education but suddenly his plans was abrupted by his sudden death.
Sir, it is a sad news that after the death of my father, the uncles seized all the properties my late acquired but as GOD blinded their eyes, they could not see the documents of this deposit he made with the security company. So as I am writing you now, the documents are with me and I have not
let them or anybody to know about it till now.
As you may know, my life is not safe here because one day the uncles will find out and deal with me as they have all along tried to do away with my life if not for God's sake I would have been dead by now.
However, I will request for your kind assistance to present you as my guardian / trustee to the security company so that they will release the deposited trunk box that contains this money so that you will transfer it to your country investment. Then after the successful withdrawal and transfer
to your country, you will arrange for me to come over there to continue me education which is very important to me and the wish of my late father to see me in life as a doctor.
Sir, if you are current with the CNN news about africa Ivory Coast in particular, you will know that there is no peace, political crisis every now and then here and life is not respected here too, so it will be dangerous to have this huge amount money invested in a country that life is not
guaranteed.
I will appreciate your noble suggestions and ideas on how to make my dreams come true since I am just only 18 years and have no idea and experience of any investment.
You can assure me on the following :-
1) Trustworthiness to handle this my inherittance if released to you
2) Your finacial capability to handle this transaction
3) Your entitlement for this assistance you will give me.
Further to this, I will appreciate it if you can keep this transaction close to yourself and for security so that people will not raise eyebrows on you when you conclude this transaction and have access to the money. Let it be between you and me and nobody else.
While expecting your immediate response, I pray that the good Lord with guide and protect you.
My sincere regards,
Miss Joy Obiyo
