Hello Dear
I am Mrs. Sarah kufa Eyadema , The wife to the formal Head of State Lome Togo, My late husband who die at 69 years Old, suffered a heart attack early Saturday, Feb. 5, 2005 in our hometown of Piya in southeastern Togo I and my family arrange immediately for his treatment in Europe , but as the good lord will’s he die on his way to Europe. I am contacting you in view of the fact we will be great assistance to each other likewise developing a cordial business relationship. I currently have within my reach the sum of fifty-five Million United States Dollars (US$55,000,000.00) , which I intend to use for investment purposes specifically in your country.

The Russian partners returned my husbands share of US$55 Million after his death and lodged it with my husband 's security Firm in Ghana of which I am a director. Right now the new Civilian Government has revoked our licenses that allow us to own a financial and oil company.

I have since declared the Security Company bankrupt. No record ever existed concerning the money neither is the money traceable by the Government because there is no document showing that we received the money from Russians. I seek your assistance to move the money out of this country. On your consent, I shall expect you to contact me urgently to enable us discuss in details about this transaction. Bearing in mind that your assistance is needed to transfer this fund, I propose a commission of 30% (Thirty Percent) of the total
sum to you for the expected services and assistance.
All arrangement and plant’s has been put in place through the help of our family lawyer for the claim and clearing of this fund from the security and finance company as we move the fund directly to your account. Your urgent response is highly needed so as to stop further contact. I therefore mandate Barrister Adams Cole, who is our family lawyer to deal with you on this transaction. Your will be required firstly to correspond with our family lawyer Barrister Adams Cole, before communicating with me this is totally for security reasons, because people and family relatives has try in the pass to rip me off.
