DEAR
My name is MARIE NDOH , a citizen of MAN REPUBLIC OFCOTE'IVOIRE. I got your
contact from the Chamber of Commerce here during my search for an international
business relationship. I am residing in Abidjan the capital city of Cote
d?Ivoire.
In fact I worked with the ROBERT GUEI as one of his personal
confidance.During the renewed political crisis of which the he was brutally
mudered by the government forces who claimed it to be the rebels who has
been causing problems in my country. It was then that I moved the total
sum of US $25,000,000.00
(Twenty Five Million United States Dollars) which was from the sales of
cofee and cocoa and gold that the rebels wanted to use for the purchase
of amunitions before he was killed without anybody's knowdledge execpt me.
I personally want to transfer the money out of Africa to oversea where I
can invest this money properly and bring up my family there.
Right now I have already discharged my assignment as a civil servant in
the government seat. This money has no trace at all, that?s the reason why
I waited for some time for things to calm down, before I could transfer
the money out for onward use. However, I deposited the money into a bank
here with the document covering the lodgement.
But I didn?t use my name to avoid trace. I have equally filled the hole
that might bring scandal, so the business is 100% risk free. I have promise
to gratify you with 15% of the total sum for your kind assistance, if you
can avail me an account facility where I can transfer the money into.
After much we know each other sign some necessary document like agreement
for both mutual understanding that if finally the money gets to your account
that you can not sit on my money, or even claim more percentage than what
agreed on.
This agreement must be done by you with your letter headed paper signed
by you and must be notarised by your legal attaché. Once I am convinced
with this lay down agreement, I will now instruct the bank to transfer the
money to your account. In addition a letter of an invitation is highly needed
because I will fly to meet with you as soon as the transfer is done. If
you accept this proposal you are advised to send to me your banking details
for the transfer.
Please I beg that the information passed through must be treated with absolute
confidentiality considering how I got the money to avoid trace or problem.
Upon receipt of the message if you are not interested please kindly destroy.
And keep to yourself do not let someone else see or you telling another
person about it for my security. In Africa here we surfer a lot so this
is a great opportunity for me. Thanks million time if you act as instructed.
Your urgent respond is highly needed for more information, email me with
the above email address.
My regards
MARIE NDOH
