Subject: Dear One
From Agis Demel
may the peace of gracious God be with you,please I have a problem which I need help from you, however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour it against your wish. I am AGIS DEMEL, 18 years old and the only SON of
my late parents Mr. and Mrs.DEMEL.
My father was a highly reputable business man (a coacoa merchant)he operated in the capital city of Ivory coast during his days.My fathers died mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad on 12th.Febuary 2005.Though his
sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time.
But GOD knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 4 years old on child birth according to what my father told me,The time for her delivery was complete and the doctor did not know because according to my father the doctor told them
that my mother was not going through labour because according to his own prediction my mother had about one month more to deliver. So before they rialise she was on labour, it has taken about two days and she became very weak and could not make it during child delivery.Since then my father took me so special. Before his death on February 12/ 2005 which came to me as a suprise
I have stoped schooling because i cant afford to pay for school fees anymore. But i have gone to my fahers lawyer to find that my father have money to the tune of eight million, seven hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$8.700,000)
deposited in a bank here in abidjan ,according to he lawyer he propossed using for a foreign business transaction.
Upon this informatioin given to me by the lawyer i have also gone ot the bank where the money is deposited,to find out, according to what the lawyer told me.My fahter deposited this money and no name was given to them as the
beneficiary. They are therefore asking me as the son to the depositor, to forward to them the name of Beneficiary of this money.
I will like to continue my studies but that will not be here again in cote d¡ ivorie. There is political unrest here and nobody knows what the next day will bring. People are now leaving in fear here.I know you may ask why didnt my father deposit the money in my name. I want you to know that our rights by the almighty God still permits him to mary more than one wife, which i know he has started making some moves towards marrying two more wives because he said he has morned
my mother a long time.I want you come and stand inn as my fathers foreign business partner who this money is made for. But please i want to beg you by the almighty God to be faithull to me.And tell me you will not because iam a smail boy and cheat on me. I will like to come over to your country and finish my school get a better job and settle down for life.If you like we can as well go into a joint business of any type in your country.Iam waiting to hear from you and i will tell you what to do so that the money will transfer into your account.
Thank you very much and may the almighty God bless you.
