Subject: From: Mr Alpha Barry. waiting for your reply
Dearest One
How are you?
To introduce myself, I am Mr Barry Alpha, 20 YEARS from Freetown Capital of the Sierra Leon. I am an ORHPAN and the only child of my late parents being that I lost my father and mother a couple of year ago. My father was a serving director of rich Gold/Diamond exporting board until his death.
He was poison to death last January by some unknown person following the political uprising. Before his death he had a foreign account here in Cote d絵voire up to the tune of $2, 5 M which he told the bank was for the importation of cocoa processing machine.
I want you to do me a favour to receive this fund to a safe account in your country or any safer place as the beneficiary.
I have plans to do investment in your country; maybe if possible I can invest in partner with you or real estate and industrial production.
This is my reason for writing to you. Please if you are willing to assist me indicate your interest in replying soonest. Call me after going through this message for oral discussion: 0022503274414
Thanks and best regards.
Mr Barry Alpha.
