am HELEN ROGERS the only child and daughter of late Mr and Mrs.Edwin Rogers.
My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan, the economic capital
of Ivory Coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates
on one of their outings on a business trip.
My mother died when I was a baby and since then my father took me so
special. Before the death of my father on November 2004 in a private
hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me on his bed side and told me
that he has the sum of Ten million, five hundred thousand United State
Dollars.USD($10.500,000) left in fixed / suspense account in one of the
prime bank here in Abidjan ,that he used my name as his only child and
daughter for the next of Kin in depositing of the fund.
He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was
poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign
partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use
it for investment purpose such as real estate management or hotel
management. Now, I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following
ways:
(1) To serve as a guardian and foreign co-beneficiary of this fund since.
(2) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my
education and to secure resident permit in your country.
I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as money into your account
overseas.Thank you for your signify interest to assist me and hope to hear
from you soon. May God bless you and preserve our friendship in good faith.
Best regards
Helen Rogers.
