Attn: PRESIDENT/CEO
Dear Friend,
Good day and Compliments,
I am writing this letter in confidence believing that if it is the
wish
of God for you to help me and my family, God almighty will bless and
reward you aboundantly and you would never regreat this.
I am a female student from University of Burkina faso, Ouagadougou. I
am 21 yrs old. I'd like any person who can be caring, loving and home
oriented. I will love to have a long-term relationship with you and
to
know more about you. I would like to build up a solid foundation with
you
in time coming if you can be able to help me in this transaction.
Well, my father died earlier seven months ago and left I and my
junior
brother behind. He was a king, which our town citizens titled him
over
sixteen years before his death.
I was a princess to him and I am the only person who can take care of
his wealth now because my junior brother is still young and my mother
is
not literate enough to know all my father's wealth. He left the sum
of
USD 5, 350, 000.00 dollars (five Million,Three Hundred and Fifty
Thousand US Dollars)in a security company.This money was annually
paid
into
my late fathers account from Shell petroleum development
company(spdc)and chevron oil company operating in our locality for
the
compensation of youth and community development in our jurisdiction.
I don't know how and what I will do to invest this money somewhere in
abroad, so that my father's kindred will not take over what belongs
to
my father and our family, which they were planning to do without my
present because I am a female as stated by our culture in the town.
Now,i urgently need your humble assistance to move this money from
the
security company to your bank account, That is why I felt happy when
I
saw your contact because I strongly believe that by the grace of God,
you will help me invest this money wisely.
I am ready to pay 20% of the total amount to you if you help us in
this
transaction and another 10% interest of Annual After Income to you,
for
handling this transaction for us, which you will strongly have
absolute
control over.
If you can handle this project sincerely and also willing to assist
me
in lifting this fund, kindly reach me.
Please, note that this transaction is 100% risk free and I hope to
commence the transaction as quick as possible,
.
Yours sincerely,
PRINCESS STELLA PERE alternative email address stalle_pere@sify.com
