Dearest One,
I am the first daughter of an ex military/ex president been an opposition
party to the present Government of COTE D`IVOIRE. On the 19th sept 2002 my
father/mother including every members of our family was murdered by the
unknown REBELS during the time they attack our house by shooting and
looting, even this is one of the things that contributed to the present
crisis in our country today.
God so kind I was not in town when the incident occurred, the plans of the
REBELS is to kill every members of our family so that no one will rise up to
revenge as time goes on. I am in our country without any one knowing
although I am on hiding so that the unknown REBELS will not get to me and
kill me like they killed all the members of our family. Why I still stay
back in our country is to transfer the $18.5mUSD which my late father
deposited in the custody of AFRICAN JOINT SECURITY ASSISTANCE COMPANY, he
deposited the fund as a family treasure containing AFRICAN ART WORK FOR
EXPORT for security reasons, as security company does not operate as bank
where some one can deposit his/her money openly.
Before the death of my father he gave me the covering documents of the fund
deposited in the security company, as I am his first daughter and he so much
loved me that was why he made me the beneficiary of the two iron trunk boxes
containing the $18.5mUSD. Right now I wish to transfer this fund to you so
that you will assist me to invest the money into any viable sector in your
country, also you will help me to join you in your country for me to start
up a new life with you there immediately the fund gets to you. since I am no
longer safe as far as Africa is concern at the moment, I wanted to transfer
the fund before leaving the country because this fund is my last hope and
the only hope I have now.
Before I even pick you to assist me I have prayed and slept over it asking
God to provide for me a Godly minded person that will assist me in this
transaction. I will give you more details of the transaction in my next
mail.
Awaiting to here from you.
Thanks and God bless you.
