Subject: hi
Vivane A.Mark and Son, Williams.
A.Widow.
Abidjan Cote Divoire.
Dear ,
With all my sincerity and passion I wish this mail meet you
in good mode, as all what you are about to read from me is
real and serious expecting your urgent attention.
I write to intimate you of a matter that requires an urgent
attention. But briefly, I am Madam Vivane A. Mark age 34
years a full registered member ,a widow wife of late Dr
Ahmed A Mark CEO/Managing Director Sierra Leone Gold &
Diamond Mining Corporation. It is my pleasure communicating
with you for the first time and believe that it will lead to
a better relationship between us. I hope you will not impede
the trust and confidence I repose in you.
I sent this letter from Abidjan in Cote d'Ivoire here I have
an official refugee status with my son after leaving our
country due to an event that took place on Febuary 2003
which led to the arrest and detention of my Husband and six
other men after a face off with the Sierra-Leone government
on allegation of subversive activities and treasonable
offences which was nothing but a mere political persecution.
After five months in the military detention camp my Husband
was announced dead by the government special press release.
Though I do not know to what extent you are familiar with
the event and crisis in Sierra-Leone, however during the
disturbance and prior to my Husband's death he gave me all
the deposit slip for the secret deposit he made in a private
bank account here in Abidjan Cote Divoire. The deposit is
US$ 10.5 Million US Dollars, he made the deposit in a
private bank account in Abidjan Abidjan Cote Divoire, You
will confirm and clarify the existence of this very fund
after all neccessary arrangement are put in place for this
fund transfer into your private bank account for full
security before we decide on what kind of investment
together.
However I have establised the ownership of this very fund in
the bank to confirm the deposit and , please I need your
assistance to help me move out all this fund to be
transfered into your private bank account abroad hence I am
very worried here because of the insecurity in the country,
and urgently in moving this fund to your country for our
investment, when the fund is properly secured we will
jointly invest in any business you consider profitable.
I will be glad for your resolved assistance, I will kindly
appreciate you if we can talk and emerge words with action.
With all honesty and humility to the stated data in my
message,I assure you of the genuity of this fund transfer as
it is real and there is no danger attached to it , this you
will confirm . I will particularly be happy if you can
handle this transaction in the most confidential manner
since the rest of my life and that of my only son solely
depends on this fund.
It is the fear of betrayal from any one around us here that
informed my decision to contact a neutral individual like
you, and I want you to educate us on investment potential in
your country since I would not like to invest or stay in any
of the African country.
I will not hesitate to give you 20% or whatever percentage
you will want out of the total sum for your assistance, so
if you will be able to assist me and my son in helping us
transfer out this very fund into your private bank account
for our investment as I will be willing to forward you every
neccessary deposit slip from a private bank account in
Abidjan , and the office contact immediately, Please do
urgently reply me on the private email address below for
further clarification and confirmation.
Thank for your anticipated co-operation, May God bless you.
Your Sincerely,
Madam Vivane A.Mark and Son, Williams.
A.Widow.
