Good day Friend,

I wanted to discuss something with you,Its really bothering me.I know you will be suprise how I got your email
address,but dont be suprise I got It while I was browsing along the net also I know this
will sound some-how strange to you because we have not met phisically
before.But I promise to be nice.My Name is Mrs. Juliet Oniga, daugther Of late Mr
Chico Oniga. I am about to tell you something that I have not
discuss with anyone excluding my lawyer.My father was a big time farmer
in south africa,he used most of South Africa land for farming.The
Government in South Africa gave him those lands for farming and he will pay back
when he have the money,it was like a loan they gave him the lands! ! as loan
.My father was very successfull In the farming business and he paid all the Government
back.Some top officials In the Government were Jealous because of his
wealth.They wanted him to Join them carry out a dubious deal against
the Government but he refused ,so they plan to kill him and claim all his
wealth he has suffered for in South Africa.On his way home one day he was coming from the office
and he was assasinated and he was rushed to the hospital by a good samaritan. But he did not
survive It .But before they killed him he saw It coming and transfer
most of his fund to a Security company In London.He died In the hospital
,But before he died he gave me the contact Information to the Security
company which the fund was located Those people were looking for me and my family and
we ran to Botswana, a neighbouring country for safety because they know
we know were my father`sfunds were hidden.I contacted the Security company! yesterday on
how I could collect the funds with my lawyer`s assistance and they told
me that I need a foreign beneficiary outside Africa because of Security
reasons.And I dont have anyone outside Africa that will stand for me as a beneficiarry.They
said the money was too big ($20m)My father never told me the amount
of the money I was so shock.They also said that the funds has been deposited
there for about four years now and it has accumulated demurrage which
we must pay before the consignment will be released.My lawyer told me to
look for a beneficiarry.That Is my problem now,My mother Is willing to give $7m to you
if you will help the family.Please If you can help me and my family In
any way I will appreciate It alot and in paying the demurrage fee.I will like to hear
from you soon , please contact me through my private address, feel free
to reply me to this e-mail address I have given you... I will like to hear from you
soon.GodBless you.
N.B Any amount of money me and you spend In clearing the consignment I
will pay you In double after we have cleared the consignment.Have a
nice
day.
Thank you,
Mrs. Juliet Oniga
