Subject: I NEED YOUR HELP
MY DARLING GOOD FRIEND,
PLEASE AFTER MEETING FOR THE FIRST TIME ,I HAVE A VERY
STRONG INNER FEELING TO REVEAL MYSELF TO YOU AND THIS
IS SOMETHING VERY CONFIDENTIAL I WANT TO TELL YOU AND
I HAVE THE CONFIDENCE THAT YOU WILL NOT BETRAY ME AND
AGAIN I MAY NOT BE HAVING THE CHANCE TO BE COMING ON
NET EVERY DAY BECAUSE I MAY NOT BE FREE COMING TO THE
NET TO DISCUSS WITH YOU.
PLEASE WHEN I MET YOU,I HAVE COME TO TAKE YOU INTO
CONFIDENCE AS THE TYPE OF PERSON I CAN TRUST WHO CAN
KEEP CONFIDENCE AND PROTECT ME.AND SECONDLY IT IS NOT
VERY EASY TO DISCLOSE MY FAMILY SECRET TO ANOTHER
PERSON FOR FEAR OF DISAPPOINTMENT AND BETRAYAL,BUT I
HAVE SUMMONED THE COURAGE TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE WITH
YOU,AND I KNOW YOU CAN ASSIST ME TO CARRY OUT MY PLAN
AND COME OVER TO YOUR COUNTRY TO CONTINUE MY
EDUCATION.SINCE I MET YOU I STARTED HAVING
THE FEELING THAT YOU ARE A NICE GENTLE MAN WHO CANNOT
DISAPPOINT ME,THEN I HAVE TO OPEN UP TO YOU,PLEASE I
NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE OK.
TO BEGIN WITH,I AM THE DAUGHTER OF MR.DAVID GUEI,THE
YOUNGER BROTHER TO THE LATE GENERAL ROBERT GUEI,WHO
WAS THE FORMER HEAD OF STATE OF THE REPUBLIC OF IVORY
COAST WHO WAS ASSASINATED TOGETHER WITH THE INTERNAL
AFFAIRS MINISTER BY THE REBEL SOLDIERS DURING THE
COUP PLOT OF SEPTEMBER 2002,THAT RESULTED INTO CIVIL
WAR IN OUR COUNTRY,AND FOUR OF MY YOUNGER BROTHERS AND
SISTERS WAS KILLED TOGETHER WITH MY MOTHER BY THE
REBEL SOLDIERS DURING THE REBELLION BY THE
SOLDIERS.ONLY ME AND MY YOUNGER SISTER WAS SAVED
BECAUSE WE WERE AT THE SCHOOL DURING THE SHOOTING,AND
WAS HELPED ACCROSS THE BORDER BY THE CATHOLIC PRIEST.
WELL,TO CUT THE MATTER SHORT, WHEN MY FATHER WAS
ALIVE,THERE ARE SOME FUND HE DEPOSITED WITH THE
INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL BANK OF GHANA LTD AS A
FAMILY TREASURE IN TWO TRUNK BOXES,BECAUSE HE WAS VERY CLOSE WITH THE LATE HEAD OF STATE,AND THE IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS OF THE
DEPOSIT IS AVAILABLE WITH ME NOW,AND NOW I WANT YOU
TO COME AND CARRY THE MONEY FROM HERE.THE MONEY WAS
SEALED IN TWO TRUNK BOXES,AND THE OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS
WITH ME WAS INDICATING THAT IT IS A FAMILY TREASURE OF
PRECIOUS ITEMS VALUED AT USD$6.2 MILLION DOLLARS.MY
FATHER DID THIS DECLARATION TO COVER UP THE MAIN
CONTENT OF THE TRUNK BOXES,BECAUSE HE WAS FORMER DIRECTOR OF MINISTRYOF MINES AND ENERGY,IN CHARGE OF MINING OPERATIONS OF
THE GOVERNMENT.
AT THIS POINT,WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO FOR ME IS TO FLY
AND COME AND HELP ME TO ARRANGE AND CARRY THE MONEY IN
CASH TO YOUR COUNTRY AND BANK IT THERE IN YOUR NAME
AND SOME IN MY NAME.BUT IF YOU CAN NOT BE ABLE TO COME

FOR SECURITY PURPOSES BECAUSE OF THE ENEMIES OF MY
FATHER WHO ARE IN THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT,THEY WILL
KILL ME IF THEY FIND OUT MY WHERE ABOUT.THE ONLY
PERSON WHO KNOWS ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF ME AND MY
YOUNGER SISTER IS THE CATHOLIC PRIEST.

SECURITY REASONS.THE FUND IS MY INHERITANCE WHICH WAS
DEPOSITED WITH THE INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL BANK OF GHANA LTD BY MY LATE FATHER,AS I TOLD YOU EARLIER.SO THE ONLY THING I NEED FROM
YOU IS EITHER YOU COME SO THAT YOU CAN HELP ME TO
CARRY THE MONEY IN CASH TO YOUR COUNTRY OR YOU SET UP
THE ACCOUNT TO PUT THE FUND IN YOUR COUNTRY BEFORE I

THE POINT IS ,IF YOU CAN HELP ME TO COME AND CARRY THE
MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY OR HELP BY SETTING UP ACCOUNT IN
YOUR NAME AND IN MY NAME AT ANY BANK IN YOUR COUNTRY
OR ABLE TO COME AND CARRY THE MONEY IN CASH FROM

ASSISTANCE AND HELP.BUT IF YOU ALSO CAN SET UP ACCOUNT
IN YOUR OWN NAME,IT IS ALSO ACCEPTABLE.BUT I NEED
QUICK ACTION AND SINCERE RELATIONSHIP.I NEED A
SUITABLE ACCOUNT TO PUT THE FUND IN YOUR COUNTRY IF
YOU CAN NOT COME,TRY AND HELP ME BY PROVIDING A
GENUINE ACCOUNT IF YOU CAN NOT COME,BUT WE NEED TO
MEET FACE TO FACE BEFORE WE START SO THAT I WILL KNOW
YOU BETTER.
BUT I WILL MOST APPRECIATE YOU TO COME DOWN TO GHANA
AND MEET ME SO THAT WE CAN DISCUSS THE WAY TO CARRY IT
IN CASH TO YOUR COUNTRY,WHICH WILL BE VERY FAST AND
EASY.YOU SHOULD COME WITH AT LEAST TWO PEOPLE TO HELP
US CARRY THE MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY.I TRUST YOU BECAUSE
YOU ARE A HUMAN BEING AND I KNOW THAT YOU WILL NOT
KILL ME ALSO.NOT KNOWING YOU BEFORE CANNOT STOP ME NOT
TO TRUST YOU BECAUSE I WILL REWARD YOU HEAVILY WITH
HEAVY AMOUNT OF MONEY AFTER THE EVACUATION OF THE
MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY.BUT KEEP EVERYTHING TO YOURSELF
AND TO ME ONLY.
WELL,IT WILL BE TOO LONG TO TELL YOU ALL THINGS ON THE
CHATING LINE,AND IT WILL MAKE ME TO START CRYING IF
YOU SEEMS TO BE SYMPATHISING ME.I HATE TALKING ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED TO MY PARENT ,AND MY BROTHERS AND
SISTERS.AND I WILL APPRECIATE YOU THE MOST IF YOU
SHOULD COME DOWN TO GHANA TO HELP ME PUT THINGS
TOGETHER.AT LEAST YOU CAN PLAN TO STAY ABOUT TWO DAYS
WITH ME WHEN YOU COME,THEN WE WOULD FOLLOW TOGETHER
AND RETURN TO YOUR COUNTRY.
AS THE MONEY IS USD$6.2 MILLION DOLLARS INSIDE THE
TRUNK BOXES,YOU CAN COME WITH TWO PEOPLE,INCLUDING ME
TO CARRY IT.I WILL GIVE YOU THE FULL DETAILS ABOUT THE
DEPOSIT WHEN YOU RESPOND,AND YOU CAN CONTACT THE
SECURITY COMPANY FROM YOUR COUNTRY AS MY FAMILY FRIEND
OR AS A BUSINESS PARTNER TO MY LATE FATHER IF YOU NEED
