A short while after my parents was assassinate, my uncle took everything
that belongs to my father and I never believe that my uncle could send me to
an orphan home where I stayed till after four months when my grand mother
nicked me out from there to Lagos State where I presently stay, I know that
my uncle must involved in my parent death because he dont care about my
living.
Just two weeks ago my grand mother was very sick in the village and she sent
for me to come home, When I got home she was almost dieing but still she
called my name and I went closer to her then she gave me a deposited
certificate she told me my father made deposit of US$4.5 million US Dollars,
with the Central Bank of Nigeria.
She told me that I must do anything within my powers to get started again
with the money I want you to quietly assist me in getting this money.
Now all I want from you is full trust and understanding, if you are
intrested in this transaction please reply me with your full name and a
valid bank account info any where in the world, as soon as I receive your
reply I shall explain to you in details as you are going to represent the
Beneficiary to my late father Mr Samuel Chibuzor.
Mind you this transaction is 100% risk-free, I will provide all the relevant
documents regarding the fund deposited to enable you have the full claim as
Beneficiary to my late father.
Best Regards.
