Dear friend,
I greet you in the name of our lord Jesus Christ. My name is Mrs.Janet Nkuruma
I am a widow and a mother of three all girls. I know you will see my letter
to you as an embarrassment considering the fact that we do not know ourselves.I
plead with you to be patient with me I feel very pleased to contact you
for some assistance and business relationship. I live in BENIN REP OF COTONOU
with my children. My late husband was a loving,caring and hard working businessman
who died unfortunately In a ghastly auto crash.
Before the sudden death of my beloved husband, and father of my daughters,my
late husband intended to establish a business in the united states of America
with the sum of$30 million united states dollars, but unfortunately he died
before this proposed venture.Following his death, his family members insisted
that I am not entitled to his property (Assets and money) since I am a woman
and my offspring's all girls as I do not have a male child
for my husband. Well, according to some barbaric traditional laws here in
COTONOU (Africa) which doesn't permit a woman to inherit a man's property,as
they are expected by tradition to take over the management of his business
and other properties including myself who automatically becomes a wife to
one of his immediate brothers.
Unfortunately to this wicked family members, the $30million united states
dollars which my late husband intended to use in establishing a business
in the United States was deposited in a bank account in BENIN unknown to
his family .I and the lawyer is the only one aware of this money, so I have
discussed this matter with a staff of the bank that i want this money personally
so that I will be able to take care of my children's educational needs since
my husband's family members vehemently opposed the furtherance of their
education.
According to the staff of the bank, the best way to secure this money is
to transfer this money to a bank account For safe keeping,later it will
be used for business establishment subject to the Advise of whosoever finally
assists us. At this juncture, I there fore ask for your sincere assistance
in providing us with your bank details and the enablement to facilitatea
the remittance of this fund into your nominated account. As soon as I get
your positive response, I shall provide you with all the necessary detail
for this transfer.
However, I have decided to to give you 20% of the total money as a reward
for your sincere assistance and the remaining 80% of the money will be for
my investment in your country under your care as I will want to keep aglow
my late husbands dream of investing in real estate. To be able to help me,
kindly send through my email, your personal details including your contact
information for easy communication.please contact me through this alternate
email address
janet_309@yahoo.com
Thanking you for your anticipated response .
Mrs.janet Nkuruma and my children
