Subject: Dearest One,
Dearest One,
Hello and how are you today,I hope you are fine and in good condition of health? I want you to understand that my contact with you is not by accident, It is true that we have not known each other for the first time but just getting to know one another and 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 in details. I am the first daughter of the ex-minister of finance ( MR. JEAN DESIRE KONE). My late father was a minister of finance of this country before the current opposition party in the present Government in COTE D`IVOIRE. On the 19th Sept 2005 my father, mother and 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 crisis in our country today after they killed some other military leaders in Government. 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 in our country without any one knowing it so that the unknown REBELS will not get me and kill me like they killed all the members of our family. Why I am still staying here in our country is to transfer the total sum of $4.5million U.S.dollars which, my late father deposited in the custody of a leading bank here in Abidjan, he deposited the fund with the name of my younger brother who was killed in the riot 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 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 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 help me and transfer the fund for me so that I can leave this country.
Currently the amount in the bank which I am having the documents is $4.5mUSD. Right now I wish to transfer this fund to you so that you will assist me leave this country and to invest the money into any viable sector in your country or in your own business, 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 to your account as I am willing to continue with my education too. Since I am no longer safe as far as Africa is concern at the moment, I wanted to transfer the fund before leaving the country because this fund is my last hope and the only hope I have now. I don't know how we will go about it but I hope hearing from you before I can know which decision to make next. 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 account in your country from here before I come to join you. Like I
said, all I need from you is your honesty and sincerer in all we do, I will be willing to trust all this into your care provided you promised taking care of me 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 l am sending you this email today. I will give you more details and also the bank information in my next email. Including the documents. I tried to send you my picture but the connection is too down, I will send you my pictures as soon as I hear from you.
Awaiting to here from you.
Thanks and God bless you.
Mabel Kone..
