Subject: Dear VICTIMNAME , Awaiting For Urgent Reply.
Dear VICTIMNAME ,
I'm in receipt of your mail which is quite encouraging to me due to it's swift nature and the sentiment therein which have been noted.I must thank you for have disclosed all about yourself to me. That has manifested your transparent honesty and your uncommon willingness to help me out in truth. Many thanks for your swift response and your advice and encouragement.
There's no risk involved in this transaction. This is a kind of personal inherittance from my late father. Sequel to this, I will be ready to forward to you the prove of the existence and availability of this fund currently under the custody of a leading bank here in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire for your perusal and confirmation if you can advise mewith your telephone and fax numbers for the transmission of the Bank contact and the official Deposit Slip to you.
The funds in question is the only tangible thing I inherited from my father.I have not handled such funds before, I am novice in the fields of investment,I have no body to run to,I can not go to the streets or the media houses in search of people who will assist me,I can not expose the transactions any how for my security and the security of the funds as well,hence the reason why I contacted you for assistance.
Please Sir, I will like you to forward me the contact of the Barrister Eze so that I will verify by sending it to the bank . Then it is left for the bank to call police for them for claiming the money that is not belongs to them.And it is because of this money that they killed my father. The worse part of it, is that my uncle is among them and it is after the death of my late father that I came to know all these when he is demanding me to give him my late father's Company Registration Certificate and the Official Deposit Slip which the bank issued to my late father on the day of the deposit. Then after I refused, he trying to kill me, that is I ran away from my late father's house and hide myself in a local guest house for the safety of my life . Now I discovered that he has sold my late father's residential building together with the proposing site where my late father wanted to build his own Cocoa industry.
As am writing to you now, I hide myself in a local guest house for the safety of my life because of him and his evil men.Please do not let him to know where am hiding and also do not contact them again and keep this issue very confidential and secrety.
Immediately you send me your telephone and fax numbers, I will send you the Official Deposit Slip that the bank issued my late father together with the bank contact so that you will contact on my behalf. Although I have made my intention to the bank that I want to transfer my inherited money based on my late father's advise and instruction.
Please help me to accord this transaction with the due confidentiality it demands. I appreciate it if you will respond to me as soon as possible.I will send you my Identification in my subsequent mail upon hearing from you. This transaction will bring us into an everlasting relationship rooted on truth and fear of God.
I look forward to hearing from you urgently.
Thanks and kind regards,
Linda.
