My father and I escaped from our country at the heat village civil war after loosing my mother and two of my senior sisters in the war.They were raped and kill before our eyes We fled to Ivory coast where my father established his cocoa business in Bouake. He was in Bouake, to negotiate for the purchase a field when rebels fighting to take over the government of the country ambushed and attacked his vehicle on the 29th of Novemeber 2003 very close to where the french troops are lining up seperating the rebels and the government troops.
He was hospitalised before he finally gave up on the 4th of January 2004. The death of My father has now made me an orphan and thereby exposing me to danger.I have no one back home to live to. No brother,no sister,Uncle or I mean just nobody anymore.Before the unfortunate death, my father called me to his side and told me he had a sum of eight million four hundred and fifty thousand dollars in his account in Abidjan that I his only surviving child is his next of kin,incase he fails to make it.
I have confirm from the bank all he told me with the papers he gave me.My late dad's properties are being siezed by some of his business friends. They claim he's owing them.Please I need to transfer this money out for my future security.I have contacted the bank and was told to provide the account where it could be transfered to.
Please help so that this money can be transfered to your account for safekeeping and investment. Again, As soon as the money has been transfered ,to assist me to get a visa to your country for residence inorder for me to continue my education and to invest the fund in a viable business there.I want to live far away from here now.This money can take care of me there without any problem and please I need you to manage the fund for me as this is my last hope in life. I am ready to do anything you want provided you help me.
