Attn,Pls.
Compliment of the day to you. I want you to help us invest our family fund in your
country. Please permit me to use this medium to explain my problem to you in detail.
My name is AGATHE Bello and am here in Abidjan , Republic of Cote d' Ivoire in West Africa with my junior brother Ken and we are from Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) but here in (Abidjan) as a result of the war in my country. We entered as a result of the war in my country which lead to the death of my father and mother living me and Ken alone on earth . And here in (Abidjan), we entered as refugee. I am still a student studying medicine and Ken engineering before the out break of the war in my country. I am 24 years of age and Ken is 22 Please we need your assistance and
that is why we are writing you now. My father is a former director of mining in The Democratic Republic of Congo and he was assassinated by the rebels.Before the death of my father, he used my brother's name to deposit some money as his next of
kin in a SECURITY COMPANY HERE IN ABIDJAN. THE TOTAL AMOUNT DEPOSITED FOR US IS VALUED AT $12.5 MILLION DOLLARS.
And my brother is standing as the beneficiary but cannot lay claim because they do not allow refugees to operate account in the bank and the security company has contacted us to come and have our fund cleared. Every legal document for the deposit is very safe with us. All I need from you is to help us get the total money transferred into your account once we change the beneficiary in your name and favor. The money
is a very large money and we don't know how to manage the fund or keep it and that is why we are asking you to help us transfer it to your account oversea or to your account in your country and also manage the money in partnership with my brother for investment in your Country or any other place.
WE NEED THE FOLLOWING TO ENABLE CHANGE THE BENEFICIARY IN YOUR
FAVOR SO THAT YOU WILL BE STANDING AS THE OWNER AND THE FINANCE COMPANY WILL CONTACT YOU FOR THE TRANSFER; YOUR FULL NAME YOUR ADDRESS YOUR TELEPHONE AND MOBILE AND FAX LINE. ONCE WE RECEIVE
ALL THIS AND YOUR TELEPHONE ASSURING US YOUR READINESS AND WILLINGNESS TO HELP US CLEAR AND CLAIM OUR MONEY AND ASSURE US ALSO OF HELPING US TO INVEST THE MONEY IN YOUR COUNTRY. WE WILL CONTACT YOU FOR FURTHER DETAILS AS TO HOW TO MAKE THE CLAIM OF THE FUND AND ALSO WE WILL SUBMIT FOR THE CHANGE OF THE BENEFICIARY IN YOUR FAVOR TO ENABLE THE FINANCE COMPANY TO TRANSFER THE MONEY TO YOUR ACCOUNT IN YOUR COUNTRY.
We wait your urgent reply.
Thank you.
Best regards,
AGATHE And KEN
