With a sincere heart, I write you this proposal in utmost confidentiality

trust and wish to draw your attention to my need for assistance.

I am Mrs Karen Dial, a wife of late DR, Rachel Dial who died after three
days
Major-Operation at General hospital Saudi Arabia He was a Computer scientist

with the Saudi Arabia airport authority I got to know of your courtesy of

international business bureau, from one Director incharge of importations
and
Expotation of Goods and Product.

Sequent to my zeal towards the security of my life and my husband fund in

Foreign Security Firm . I,therefore write to give you break down of my life.

My dear, I have two happy days. Happy days are what we worked for. But happy

days are not easily worked for. (tears) my late husband left me without
a
child.Besides, I was made to understood that, if a man died without an issue

all his wealth will be shared by the entire relatives.

From the time immemorial, the tendency of human beings is live to live
together, very few normal human beings live in isolation from their
kind.Therefore consciousness of kind leads to Community living withit's
own
ethos and taboos. Precisely, my husband had a secret Account Worth of $10.9

Million(TEN MILLION NINE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS) with the Foreign Security

Firm,In switzerland which I now demanded your ability/assistance to put
up
claims of receiving the fund on your side for safety. Since the money has
to
be claimed by a non connaissance.

Dear, I'm down with imperialism and tribal division, no sporadical act nor

pious revolution can resolve my present problems and condition. Nothing
will
be of avail except one from overseas assisted me and claim this fund through

the help of my husband Attorney in switzerland .

For now I am lame and I must depend on crutches to support and sustain
myself. But tomorrow may be well on the way. Flying low or high in life

depends in God. My humble duty now is to pray that my wound shall be healed

if ever you will never fail me in the longer days and longer nights.

I await your kind response.

Yours sincerely,
Mrs Karen Dial.
