Dearest
I hope that I am not embarrassing you with this mail because you did not expect it or know me before but kindly be rest assure that I have an irresistible urge to write it believe me. This mail is an indication of love and happiness that I shall always wish you .I am Ms. mariam barray 21 years old, the Daughter of late Mr and Mrs Barray the former President of Sierra Leone Gold & Dealers / Association.
My late father was a very wealthy gold Merchant before his untimely death, my father was poisoned to death by his political members, and before his death my father told me and my senior brother that he deposited the sum of $10.5 Million us dollars in a fixed deposit account with one of the leading bank in Cote D'Ivoire.
Presently, I and my brother are now in Abidjan , Cote d'Ivoire as a result of what happened to my brother after our fathers death. It happened we were both attacked in the midnight some months ago and fortunately for me I was able to escape while my brother was seriously injured that up till now he has not been able to regain a sound health as he is always on sick bed and I am afraid that I might lose him which is the reason why I decided to seek your help.
I am seeking your assistance to transfer the money into your account in your country as it is obvious that the killers of our father are after our lives to make sure that our entire family are drastically wiped off believing that we might fight back the cause of our fathers death
at the future date. In fact as I am writing to you now I am not comfortable here since we do not know anybody around here. Please kindly indicate your interest if you can help to save our lives and transfer this fund to your account in your country for investment purposes.
I intend to offer to you any % from the total money ($10.5 Million) for your assistance so far immediately the fund is being transferred into your own designated account since my purpose of contacting you is to entrust to you to this money for investment. This is the highest confidence and trust any person can repose on the other especially when it is considered that we did not know ourselves before, therefore you are expected to display high degree of maturity, responsibility, and understanding in handling this situation for the safety of our lives and the successful transferring of the money.
I will furnish you with the official documents that prove the existence of this fund at the bank where it was being lodged after you have indicated your interest and willingness to help us out of this problem to secure the money for proper investments in your country.
Write to me as fast as possible to acknowledge this mail and thanks in anticipation.
For the confidentiality of this transaction please strictly reply me through my private mail box :mariam_barray002@yahoo.cn
Remain Blessed,
Ms. mariam Barray
