Dear Friend,
with due respect i am asking you to guarrant me an audience for sake of my ugly condition .i must say that i am Sorry at this perceived confusion or stress as you may have receiving this letter, since we have not known or met ourselves previously. Despite that reason, please save me from this urgly situation as I hope that this letter will not constitute an embarrassment to you.
I decided to contact you because of the urgency of my situation here and with this, let me introduce myself. I am Mrs. Dorris Taya .(35 yrs old.), The wife of Late Former Mauritania security office, who died during the Mauritania Civil disturbance. I am constrained to contact you because of the maltreatment I received from my husband brothers. They planned to take away all my late husband treasury and properties away from me since the unexpected death of my husband.
Meanwhile I wanted to escape to the United States but they conspired together and stole my international passport and other valuable travelling documents. But luckly for me they did not discover where I hide my husband documents file where important documents are kept, So I decided to contact you confidentially.
They have even closed all my husband bank accounts just to put me into suffery and starvation. Now I urgently need an assistance of a reputable and trustworthy Foreigner like you to help me receive and subsequently invest on my behalf the sum of US$ 4..000.000(FOUR MILLION DOLLARS), which my husband kept in a vault in Dakar-Senegal before his death.
It therefore became very necessary and urgent that somebody in your foreign position should render a helping hand to safe-guard this fund for me in safe haven over there until my arrival in your country. It is my intention to compensate you with 20% of the total money for your assistance while 10% will be keptaside for any miscellaneous expenses incurred by both of us and balance kept for any profitable investment anywhere in overseas as you may advice me.
Today I'am in Senegal with my only son to claim this money from the fidiuary firm but because we are refugee they firm refused us and adviced us to look for someone who can stand for us because the law of senegal forbid any refugee from anything monitary issues and I have all the relevant Documents backing this money now in Senegal.
please your urgent assistance is needed and as soon as this money comes in your position you will look for a profitable business which we will invest this money into. although contacted you based on your capability and knowledge in international business.
I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely and bear it in mind that this transaction will only take 12days to finalise since i am with all the papers that cover this money.
Thanking you in advance for your understanding and co-operation.for more information you can reach me with this email address:dorristaya@walla.com
