Subject: URGENTREPLY
Dear Chosen One.
I am a female student from University of Burkina Faso; Ouagadougou-Africa.I am 25 yrs old. My name is Princess Fatima Ali.
Well, my father died earlier five months ago and left me behind. He was a king, which our town citizens titled him over sixteen years before his death.
He left the sum of USD 7, 350,000.00 dollars (Seven Million, Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand US Dollars) in a security company. This money was annually paid into my late fathers account from Shell petroleum development company (S.P.D.C) and chevron Oil Company operating in our locality for the compensation of youth and community development in our jurisdiction.
I don't know how and what I will do to invest this money somewhere in 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 CONSENT because I am a female as stated by our culture in the town.
With this reason,i came in contact with an india citizen few days back whose name was Dr.Anuk who also helped us to retrieve the money from the security company.I changed the whole documents in his name and the money was sent to him on 9th of this month through diplomatic means as it was packaged as family valuables by my late father.(may the soul of dr.anuk rest in peace).
My dear, as i am talking to you right now,the money is still in the indian airport according to the information i got from the diplomat.The diplomat who went for the assignment reported in their office that he could not get intouch with my late father's partner in india.When i heared this news i was totally shocked but the tragic part of it is that this Dr Anuk died just the same day that the diplomat got to india according to the news i gathered from his younger sister of 10yrs old during my telephone conversation with her because they are the only children their parents had before they died.
Now, I urgently need your humble assistance to contact with the diplomat overthere and recieve the money from him before the airport authority will start questioning the consignment.Please you do not have to let the diplomat know about the content.I have told my lawyer about this issue and he promised to rechange your names in the documents including the power of attorney to enable you communicate with the diplomat freely as my late father's rightfull partner.
I am ready to pay 20% of the total amount to you if you help us in this transaction and another 10% interest of Annual income to you, for handling this transaction for us, which you will strongly have absolute control over.
If you can handle this project sincerely,kindly send to me your personal informations for procuring the documents and i will also send a representative to you in your country to inspect the transaction.
Yours sincerely,
