Subject: Hepl my family
Hello,
I humbly wish to extend this mutual business relation with the hope
that you will gladly accept. My name is . Mrs Linda Giwa whose husband
died in 2001.
Before the death of my husband, there was an amount of $ 15.5m, which
my late husband deposited with a security company in EUROPE and for the
fact that I have for my husband only 4 daughters before his death. It
is there our custom that my children (i.e.) daughters has no inheritance
to their father wealth, but rather his own immediate brothers.
Because of our custom, I am therefore of soliciting your assistance for
the transfer of the said amount to your country/bank account for
investment purpose.
As soon as the money gets to your account, you are going to assist me
by providing accommodation for my four daughters ion your country and
also invest the money for them in your country for them in country
through you as a director.
Based on the circumstances surrounding the amount in question, this
money will not return to Nigeria again otherwise, my husband brother will
take it away from my children and may finally quite us from the house
for violating the traditional rites.
Therefore, if you have accepted to assist me and my daughters, kindly
send to me your private telephone and fax number, authentic mailing
address,
banking detail to enhance remittance protocol. My children and I has
agreed
to compensate you with 30% of the total sum for your kind.
On behalf of my dear family. I apologise for every inconvince which
this will or might have caused you.
SEND YOUR REPLY TO (mrslingigi@yahoo.co.in)
Remain blessed.
Yours sincerely
Mrs Linda Giwa
