Subject: Seasons Greetings to you...
Dear friend,
How are you going today I hope fine? I am fine. Please sorry for my mail as we have meet each before, my purpose of contacting you is to discuss more about an investment proposal of a certain inheritance fund from my late father which is still with the financial firm and I need you by myside to handle this for me, you have a lot of benefit from me after this transaction is concluded.
My Name is Vivien Pascal, I am the only dauther of late Mr. and Mrs Fred Pascal my father was a rich businessman who deals on diamond. My Parents and younger siblings was assisinated in the 2004 during a political unrest that engulfed my Country Zambia recently. They where shot to dead by unknown Person(s) who where accusing him of funding and sponsoring a factional Political group with his money. Before the death of my father, in October 28, 2004, in a private hospital, he secretly called me on is bedside and told me that it has the sum of five million, five hundred and thousand United States(USS5,500,000)dollars he deposited it in a Finance and Security company here Dakar Senegal. with my name as next of kin to the fund.
Now, after the recent crisis that burst up in my Country I ran to Senegal where my father deposited the fund and seeked asylum, that is how I now went to stay in the United States Refugee Camp. So that is where am currently staying for now. But the problem am encoutering now is that when I went to the Financial holding company to withdraw the money. I was made to understand that with my status as a refugee I can not be able to clear the fund, but can do so with the help of a forieng partner. They told me that the local law hear does not Permit a refugee to operate any business at all, nor transact a fund of such magnitude.
So please dear, I am pleading, if ou can help me and stand by my side as my nominated next-of-kin and withdraw the fund for me (USS5,500,000) to your account in your Coutry and I will be very glad to join you for future investment on your directives, as I have not being into any bussiness before.
Please you can reply me with this alternate email address as it is the most confidential for me at the moment. vivien_p@ubbi.com
I will be waiting to hear your favourable response.
Sincerely yours,
Miss. Vivien Pascal
