Subject: ASSIST ME PLEASE
HELLO FRIEND,
Good day and Compliments, I am writing this letter in confidence believing
that if it is the wish of God for you to help me and my family, God almighty
will bless and reward you aboundantly and you would never regret this.
My family and I are true Christians and worship God truthfully.I got your
contact during my search for this assistance. I am a female student from
University Burkina Faso, Ouaga. I am 25 yrs old. I'd like any person who can
be caring, loving and home oriented. I will love to have a long-term
relationship with you and to know more about you.
I would like to build up a solid foundation with you in time coming if you
can be able to help me in this transaction. Well,my father died earlier two
months ago and left I and my junior brother behind. He was a king, which our
town citizens titled him over sixteen years before his death. I was a
princess to him and I am the only person who can take care of his wealth now
because my junior brother is still young and my mother is not literate
enough to know all my father's wealth.
He left the sum of USD 7.5M (Seven Million, Five Hundred Thousand US
Dollars)in a security company.This money was annually paid into my late
fathers account from Shell petroleum development company(spdc)and chevron
oil company operating in our locality
for the compensation of youth and community development in our jurisdiction.
I don't know how and what I will do to invest this money somewhere in
abroad, so that my father's kindred will not take over what belongs to my
father and our family, which they were planning to do without my consent
because I am a female as stated by our culture in the town.
Now,I urgently need your humble assistance to move this money from the
security company to your bank account, That is why I felt happy when I saw
your contact because I strongly believe that by the grace of God, you will
help me invest this money wisely. I am ready to pay 30% of the total amount
to you if you help us in this transaction and another 10% interest of Annual
After Income to you, for handling this transaction for us,which you will
strongly have absolute control over it.
If you can handle this project sincerely and also willing to assist me in
lifting this fund, kindly reach me.Please, note that this transaction is
100% risk free and I hope to commence the transaction as quick as possible,I
will send you my picture as soon as I hear from you for recognition.
Yours sincerely,
PRINCESS emilia williams.(MS).
