Subject: From Marie.Show little kindness beloved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dearest Beloved One,
Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as
a surprise and if it might offend you without your
prior consent and writing through this channel.
My name is MARIE WILLIAMS, a citizen of KHOROGO
REPUBLIC OF COTE D'IVOIRE.
I got your contact from the Chamber of Commerce here
during my search for an international business
relationship. I am residing in Abidjan the capital
City of Cote d'Ivoire.
In fact I worked with PRESIDENT ROBERT GUEI as one of
his personal confidants. During the renewed political
crisis of which he was brutally mudered by the
government forces who claimed to be the rebels who
have been causing problems in my country. It was then
that I moved the total sum of US $25,000,000.00
(Twenty Five Million United States Dollars) which was
from the sales of coffee and cocoa and gold that the
rebels wanted to use for the purchase of ammunitions
before he was killed without anybody's knowledge
except me.
I personally want to transfer the money out of Africa
to oversea where I can invest this money properly and
bring up my family there.
Right now I have already discharged my assignment as a
civil servant in the government seat. This money has
no trace at all, that is the reason why I waited for
some time for things to calm down, before I could
transfer the money out for onward use. However, I
deposited the money into a bank here with the document
covering the lodgment.
I have equally filled the hole that might bring
scandal, so the business is 100% risk free. I have
promised to gratify you with 15% of the total sum for
your kind assistance, if you can avail me an account
facility where I can transfer the money.
A letter of invitation is highly needed because I will
fly to meet with you as soon as the transfer is done.
If you accept this proposal you are advised to send to
me your banking details for the transfer.
Please I beg that the information passed through must
be treated with absolute confidentiality considering
how I got the money to avoid trace or problem.
Upon receipt of the message if you are not interested
please kindly destroy and keep to yourself. Do not let
someone else see or you telling another person about
it for my security. In Africa here we suffer a lot so
this is a great opportunity for me. Thanks million
times if you act as instructed.
Your urgent response is highly needed for more
information; email me with the above email address.
My regards
MRS. MARIE WILLIAMS
