Subject: FROM MABEL KONE
Dearest One,
I have decided to contact you after reading your profile. It is true that we are just knowing each other for the first time but I strongly believe that it will take us to great relationship financially and otherwise. Before I continue with my discussion with you, let me introduce myself to you. My name is Mabel Kone, I am the first and only daughter of the ex-minister of finance (MR. JEAN DESIRE KONE). My late father was the Minister of Finance of our country before the current opposition party to the present Government of COTE D`IVOIRE. On the 19th Sept 2005 my father/mother including my younger brother was murdered by the unknown REBELS during the time they attacked our house by shooting and looting, even this is one of the things that contributed to the present political crisis in our country today. They also killed some other military leaders. It pains my heart to tell this story but I must to save myself from suffering and sorrow.
God so kind I was not in town when the incident occurred, the plans of the REBELS is to kill every members of our family so that no one will rise up to revenge as time goes on. I am presently staying at the Refugee Camp here in Cote D'Ivoire without any one knowing it so that the unknown REBELS will not get to me and kill me like they killed all the members of our family. Why I am still staying back in our country is to transfer the total sum of $4.5million U.S.dollars which my late father deposited in the custody of ROYAL TRUST BANK here in Abidjan, he deposited the fund with my name as the next of KIN while he used the name of one of his foreign partner as the beneficiary of the fund because he wanted to transfer the fund abroad for a business transaction before his untimely death.
Before the death of my father in one of the private hospital, he gave me the covering documents of the fund which he deposited in the Bank, as I am his first daughter and he so much loved me with trust, that was why he handed this documents to me for safe keeping and advised me to look for a good person abroad who will stand as the new beneficiary and transfer the fund for me so that I can leave this country and start a new life and continue my education too. Currently the amount in the bank which I am having the documents is $4.500, 000.00 USD (Four Million, Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars). Right now I wish to transfer this fund to you so that you will assist me to leave this country and to invest the money into any good business investment in your country, also you will help me to join you in your country for me to start up a new life with you there immediately the fund gets into your bank account as I am willing to continue with my education.
Since I am no longer safe as far as this country is concern at the moment, I want to transfer the fund before leaving the country because this fund is my last hope and the only future I have now. I will like you to stand as the foreign beneficiary of the fund, as I will officially introduce you as the new beneficiary to enable the bank transfer this fund to your bank account in your country before I come to join you. Like I said, I strongly need your help to transfer this fund, and I have all the covering documents with me. I will be willing to trust all the fund into your care, provided you promise to take good care of the fund as soon as it comes into your account because I don't have anyone to run to.
Before I even pick you to assist me, I have prayed and slept over it asking God to provide for me a Godly minded person that will assist me in this transaction that was the reason why it took me some time to reply your email today. I will give you more details and the bank information in my next email. Including the documents of the deposit and also my picture. I hope to hear from you very soon.
Thanks and God bless you.
Mabel Kone
