MISS LOISE.F.BANGURA
AVE 11 RUE de paix,
ABIDJAN COTE D IVOIRE
Compliments of the season,I know this mail may come to you as a surprise, since we have not known each other before
I am MISS loise F. BANGURA 20years old and the only
DAUGTHER of my late parents MR.and MRS D.BANGURA. My
father was a reputable busnness magnet-(a cocoa
merchant)who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during
his days. It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously
in France during one of his business trips abroad year
12th.Febuary 2003.Though his sudden death was linked or
rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of
his who travelled with him at that time. But God knows the
truth! My mother died when I was just 4 years old, and
since then my father took me so special. Before his death
on Febuary 12 2003 he called the secretary who accompanied
him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of Ten
Million United State Dollars.(USD$10 000 000) left in a
security company in a mettalic trunk box, but the security
company didn't know the content because it was registered
as family valuables for security reasons. I am
just 20years old and a university undergraduate and really
don't know what to do. This is because I have suffered a
lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis
here in Ivory coast. The death of my father actually
brought sorrow to my life. Sir,I am in a sincere desire of
your humble assistance in this regards.Your suggestions and
ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these
few questions:-
1. Can I completely trust you?
2. What percentage of the total amount in question will be
good for you?
Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.
PLEASE CONTACT ME THROUGH THIS MY PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS.
