M y dear i am sorry to come to you in this way, i came across your
profile and my spirit lead me to chose you,well i realy needed some
one honest, truthfull to share my feelings and my burden with you, let
me introduce my self to you, I am Miss Vivian Nnna, 21 years old the
only daugther to late Mr and Mrs Harmann Nna. a Native of Ivory Coast
in West Africa.
My father was a highly reputable business man (a cocoa merchant) who
operated in Abidjan the capital city of lvory coast during his days.
It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one
of his business trips abroad on 12th.August 2006.Though his sudden
death was linked or rather suspected to have been master minded by one
of his family member who travelled with him at that time. But God
knows the truth!
My mother died when I was just 6 years old . Since then my father took
me so special. Before the death of my father on August 12 2006 in a
private hospital , he secretly called me on his bedside and told me
that he has a sum (US$ 5,500,000 ,FIVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
UNITED STATES DOLLARS) which was deposited at the suspence account in
a local bank here in Abidjan,that he used my name as his only Daughter
and the person who will inherit the deposit fund incase if he is no
more.
He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was
poisoned by one of his family members who travelled with him at that
time,he told me that incase if he is no more that i should seek for a
foreign patner in a country of my choice who will help me to receive
the fund into his/her account and i will travell to the country and
use the fund for investment purpose and also further my education
there.
The document which I have in my possession now carries my late
father's name as the depositor, while I'm the next of kin on the same
document. I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and
really don't know what to do now. The death of my father actually
brought sorrow to my life. dear, I am sincerely asking for your humble
assistance in this regards. Your suggestions and ideas will be highly
regarded. and after the succesfull transfer of the money into your
account i promise with faith to give you 30% of the total sum.
Dear permit me to ask these few questions:-
1. Can you honestly help me as your Sister/Daughter?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. Can you promise me that you will not betray me when this money will
get to your possition?
Please, Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible on my
Private email;helpvivian13400@yahoo.cn
Immidiately i hear from you concerning my request.I will forward to
you all the neccessary documents concerning this deposit with the bank
contact so that you will contact the bank for the transfer of the
money into your account..
Thanks and GOD bless you as you bring out your mind willingly to help
me out from this situation,
My best regards to you.
yours lovely one
Vivian Nna.
