with my mother and only sister, now i am in Dakar,Senegal under United Nations
refugee protection with my little brother.
After the death of our father, my uncle started to persecute us about my fathers
landed properties , which he later snatched from us under treat and duress.Now
there is nothing we can do rather than to run away for our dear life which is
very important to us, now i and my brother are in critical condition here in
Dakar Senegal,we are political assylum seekers , some one to be under refugee
protection to compare with senegal a country where things are very hard and
difficult, every thing is bad for us here,we need urgent assistance.
You are the kind of person i and my brother are looking up for our future, which
i know that you can not disappoint us in life.Now the only thing that makes me
to feel happy at times is the money which our late father left for us in a
security and finance firm which i and my younger brother are the only persons
aware , i am the next of kin to my late father and inheritted
all his belongings. My late father loves me very much that was why he
gave me every information about the money he deposited on my behalf as his first
daughter before his death and the amount is $9,100,000(NINE MILLION ONE HUNDRED
THOUSAND U S DOLLARS.
On our arrival here,I extablished contact and ownership with the SECURITY AND
FINANCE FIRM and the director told me that unless i have some body who will
represent me as my late fathers foreign business associate and family
representative with prove of status that their SECURITY COMPANY will not release
the money.So this is why i am looking for who will help me,someone who will not
betray me nor cheat me in the future,somebody with the fear of God.I am hereby
seeking for your assistance towards this matter, feel free to reply me to
indicate your interest and willingness to assist me and my younger brother out
of this suffering and transfer the money to your bank account in your country
and 65% of the total sum will befor me and my brother while 30%will be for you

After the transfer has been made to your bank account,you will send some money

very sick at the moment and hospitalised. Thanks & remain blessed.And
