Dear friend,
RE save our soul
I am Mrs. Deborah Kabila, one of the wives of Late President Laurent D.
Kabila of Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Consequent upon the assassination
of my husband, I am in possession of USD 58,000,000 (Fifty Eight Million
US Dollars Only) being funds earlier earmarked for special projects. This
fund has since been deposited in a security company in West African Country
of Togo where I am residing now with my children. It is now my intention
to move the said fund out of this place (Togo) to a safer place for the
benefit of my children and I, for immediate investment. Based on this that
I solicited for your assistance to enable me take this money out of Togo.
However, note that my children and I have agreed to give you 20% of the
total fund if you can accept the offer of assisting us. Also it will be
your responsibility in directing us on a viable business. It is also my
intention to relocate and probably take a temporarily resident in your country
pending when all the troubles in my country will be resolved. We advised
that you look for a house we will buy as soon as we arrived. To conclude
this transaction, you will be required to come to Togo to open an account
in any bank here in Togo where the security company will deposit the total
sum in your favor. From this bank the money will be remitted into your original
bank in your country. Immediately this done, all of us will depart Togo
to your country, where my children and I are expected to take a temporary
resident. Please note that I can not open any Bank account with my name
because, My late husband's first son-JOSEPH-who took over power in our country,
don't want to see me and my children, He claimed that when our husband was
alive, that I was very close to him than any other of his wives including
his (Joseph) mother. He also claimed that because of my closeness to him
that I was able to get things from him more than others. As a result he
has been monitoring me. Infact this one of the main reasons I want to take
my children out of our country and any nearby country.
Thanking you in advance. Yours faithfully,
Deborah Kabila (Mrs.)
N/B: Kindly give me your direct telephone,fax and your mobile telephone
numbers for more explanations.
