Subject: urgent business proposal from mrs joy
Dear One,
compliments of the day, I suppose this proposal must come to you
as a surprise since we've not met before and have not had any kind of
correspondence based on this.Well as faith would have it,I got your contact
through a reliable source
and after praying and due consideration I decided to pick on you so don't
be so upset or embarased
I'm . Mrs Joy Gogo,the youngest and last wife of Chief Mark Gogo, whom
was suspected to be poisoned to death by one of his businss
associates.Before his death he was one of the top wealthiest cocoa export
merchant corporation based in Cote D'Ivoire.He called me alone at his bed
side before his untimely death in a private hospial and disclosed to me
about some valuable documents(which is in my possesion right now)concerning
certain deposit he made with one private security company involving a total
sum of Fourty nine million united states dollars($49 million usd)with some precious
stones. It was deposited in a trunk boxe as a family valuables and the original
copy of the gold/diamond license that belongs to my father is also included
inside the boxe for safekeeping.
He tried and explained to me that he deposited the money purposely for
safekeeping and anticipating of investing it in a foreign country
later.That he never declayed it as money but as family valuables and I was
made the next of kin to the deposit.He also told me that,it's because of
his wealth that he was poisoned by one of his business partners.And that I
should seek for a foreign partner in any country of my choice that'll help
me to retrieve and transfer the deposit abroad.
Why I contacted you now is that I want this deposit to be transfered out
of
here as soon as possible.Right now almost all my husbands properties are
being consficated by his relatives and the elder wives because I was the
youngest and the last wife.As if that's not enough they're still mounting a
lot of pressure and even threatening me because I think they're suspecting
that I must be keeping something out of them.
As a result I urgently needed a foreign partner,somebody who must
acknowledge my dilemma and willingly assist and help me in the following
ways
(1,)To assist and help me in retrieving this boxe from the security
company and transfer it into your foreign or provided account.
(2),To act as my guidian and overseer and also help me to invest this money
in any profitable business venture because I have a very little knowledge
in business.
(3),To make an arrangement for me to come over to your country to resettle
and establish my life once more.
(4),To help me and locate a gold/diamond merchant that'll buy the lincense.
However I propse giving you 25% of the total sum percentage for helping and
assisting me.But please try and keep everything concerning this transfer
very confidential for security reasons.And if you're ready and willing to
assist me in retrieving this deposit,please kindly reach me back
immediately with the above email address,so that I can furnish you with the
entire details.
Thanks for your corperation and remain blessed.
Best regards,
Mrs Joy Gogo,
