Subject: From Victor Camara.
From Victor Camara.Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire,West Africa.
Dearest one,Greetings to you.I ascertained your contact just in my search for a foreign gurdian who would probably assist us in our future investment programme.
My name is Victor Camara the Only son of Mr. and Mrs. Micheal Camara (both late). My Father was a reputable business magnet who based in Abidjan the federal capital teritory of Cost d'ivoire during his days. I have dificulties in hearing . It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad on the 12th September 2005. Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his' who travelled with him at that time. But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 6yrs old and younger sister was 2yrs, and since then our father took us so special.
Before his death, he called me and told me that he has the sum of TEN MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS ( US$10MILLION) left in fixed deposit account in one of the leading banks in Africa. He further told me that he deposited the money in my name, and also gave me all the necessary but legal documents to this fund with the bank.
I am just 18 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. Now I want an account overseas where I can transfer this funds and after the transaction I with my junior sister will come and reside permanently in your country till such a time that it will be convinient for me to return back home if I so desire. This is because we have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in cost d'ivoire.
The death of my father actually brought sorrow to our life. I also want to invest the fund under your care because I am ignorant of business world. I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards. Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.
Now permit me to ask these few questions: 1. Can you honestly help us from your heart? 2.Can I completely trust you? 3.What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after the money is in your account?
Please, consider this and get back to me as soon as possible. Immedaitely I confirm your willingness, I will send to you my Picture and also inform you more details involved in this matter.
Kind Regards, Victor Camara.I am waiting for your reply.
