Dearest: One,
I am writting this letter with due respect and heartful of tears since we have
not known or met ourselves previously. I am asking for your assistance to lead
me to the right channel towards to be out of the critical situation i am now I got
your contact from a computerize data following the deep feeling i develope on
you after my 3 days fasting and prayer for God to give me a trustwhardy person
who can allow and lead me to the right channel as a Brother, Sister, and cussion.
I will make my proposal well known if I am given the opportunity. I would like to
use this opportunity to introduce myself to you. well, I am Prince Kelvin I know
that this proposal might be a surprise to you but do consider it as an emmergeny.
In Nutshell, My late father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan, the
economic capital of Ivory Coast before he was poisoned to death by his business
associates on one of their outing to discuss on a business deal. When my mother
died, my father took me special because iam motherless.Before the death of my
father in a private hospital here in Abidjan,He secretly called me on his bedside
and told me that he has a sum of Eleveen Million United States Dollars
(USD$11M)Only deposited in a bank here on his name.
He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth and some huge amount
of money his business associates supposed to balance him from the deal they had
that he was poisoned by his business associates, that I should seek for a God
fearing foreign partner in a country of my choice who can assist me in claiming
this fund from the bank for investment purposes,
(such as real estate management).but because of the present political problems in
this country Cote d'ivoire I want to transfer the money out of the country as
I don't know what might happen next. I am honourably seeking your assistance in
the following way.
1.) To act as the foreign partner of my late father by claiming this fund from the
bank for further transfer and investment to your designated bank account
abroad. Moreover , I are willing to offer you 15% of the sum as compensation for
effort input after the successful transfer of this fund to your designated
account in your country overseas. Attached is my personal picture. I will send
you all the evidence/proof of deposit once I hear from you. Conclusively, I wish
you very best of the year and God bless you. Anticipating to hear from you soon.
Thanks Prince Kelvin David.
