God for you to help me and my family, God almighty will bless and reward you
abundantly. My family and I are true Christians and worship's God
truthfully. I got your contact through Internet during my research on some
one who could help us. I am a female student from University of Ghana Legon.
I am 25 yrs old. I’d . Like any person who can be caring, loving and home
oriented. I will love to have a long-term relationship with you and to know
more about you. I would like to build up a solid foundation with you in time
coming if you are able to help us in this transaction.
Well, my father died two months ago and left my mother, my younger brother
and I behind. He was the king of my Town before his death. That makes me a
Princess and my younger brother a Prince. My younger brother and I are the
only people who can take Care of his wealth now because my mother is not
literate enough to know my entire father’s wealth which he left behind. He
left up to USD 25, 000, 000.00 dollars (TWENTY FIVE MILLION US DOLLARS) with
Trident Security Company in Ghana. and I don’t know how and what I will do
to invest this money somewhere abroad, so that my father’s kindred will not
take over what belongs to my father and our family, which they were planning
to do without my presence as stated by our culture in the Town. That is why
I felt happy when I saw your contact, which I strongly believe that by the
grace of God, you will help me secure and invest this money. I thereby need
your help in bringing the box containing the money out from the Trident
security company GH Limited.
Based on your reply I will furnish you with more details on how we can
proceed. I am ready to pay 20% of the total amount to you if you help us in
securing this money and another 20% interest of Annual Income to you for
handling this business for us, which you will strongly have absolute control
over. If you can handle this project sincerely and also willing to assist me
in lifting this fund, kindly reach me and I will let you know the next step
to take towards actualizing this transaction as quickly as possible. Please,
note that this transaction is 100% risk free.
Yours sincerely
Miss Bernice Harrison.
