Subject: Please Be Our foreign Beneficiary
Good day Sir,
I know this mail will come to you as a surprise but I sincerely apologize for the inconveniences, which it may cause. I also pray that my decision of sending you this mail will be genuinely approved considering the fact that we have never known each other before.
Before I begin, my names are Frank Diallo, 23years and male. I am the first child of my parents who are from the ZAM ZAM Province of the Northern Dafur Region of SUDAN. We are the BLACK AFRICAN SUDAN.
My father late Chief Dr. Anderson Diallo was a wealthy Chief in our province but he was killed when the JANJAWEED men who are the ARAB SUDAN attacked and destroyed our province. My mother, kid sister and I survived. And escape to Chad another Africa country. All this happen in November last year
Fortunately for my family my late father before his death deposited the sum of US$15MILLION US Dollars with a Security and Finance company based in Accra the capital of Ghana. Before he died of the bullet wound he revealed this to me and my mother. He also tell us that when he deposit the box he say the content is just family valuables. He say he did this for the safety of the money and so that the money can be invested in a good business abroad. He then gave us all the documents and said we should try and escape to Ghana.
But when we go to the security company for the claim of the box, the director of operation tell us that my father make an agreement with them that it isa only together with a foreign partner that the box be release out of the company. He tell us that this is clearly indicated in the contract bond document. Therefore this is the reason why I am contacting you so that I will present you to the security company as our foreign beneficiary to claim the box and also receive the boxes over there in abroad. Where I will fly down for a good investment of the money in the family name and for me to continue my education.
I also want to tell you that this money is all what we have now as hope for the future and for us to start to live a better life just like before when our father was alive. so if you are interested in helping us my mother and I have agreed to give you 20% of the total money for your foreign assistance and another 10% for any expenses, which might come up.
Your consideration of this mail and urgent reply will be very much appreciated.
Please you can write back to me with your phone number so that i can call you to talk on phone.
Thank you very much and God bless.
Frank Diallo
