Subject: FROM MARY DANIEL !!!
Dear Sir
Your contact came to me through an internet resarch for foreign contact,
I am Miss Mary Daniel, the daughter of a respected politician in Gabon
Central Africa, the politician who died recently in Paris.
Since his death and even prior to the announcement,
I have been thrown into a state of confusion, humiliation,
Frustration and hopelessness by Gabon Government
I have even been subjected to physical and psychological
torture. As an arphan that is so traumatized, I have lost confidence
with everybody in the country at the moment.
You must have heard over the media reports on the discovery of some
Fund in my father's secret bank account and companies and the
Allegations Of some huge sums of money deposited by my father in my
Name of which I have refuses to disclose or give up to the corrupt
Gabon Government.
In fact the total sum allegedly discovered by the Government
so far is in the tune of about $6.5 Billion Dollars. And they are not relenting
on their Effort to make me poor for life. As the African community has no regards
for women, that is my desire for a foreign assistance.
I have deposited the sum of 14 million dollars with a security firm abroad
whose name is withheld for now until we open communication.
I shall be Grateful if you could receive this fund into your bank account or
open an account for safekeeping and any Investment opportunity.
This arrangement is known to you and my personal Attorney. He might
be Dealing with you directly for security reasons as the case may be.
In view of the above, if you are willing to assist for our mutual benefits,
we Will have to negotiate on your Percentage share of he $14,000,000
that will be Kept in your position for a while and invested in your name for my trust.
In case you don't accept please do not let me out to the security and
international media As I am giving you this information in total trust and
confidence I will greatly Appreciate if you accept my proposal in good faith.
Yours sincerely,
Engr Mary Daniel
