Dearest one.
I know that my mail will come as a bit strange because we did not know in the past and there has been no report on business or personal contact. I humbly ask you to consider the importance and the great advantage of my proposal and send me an urgent response
because of our situation and especially of insecurity here in Cote d'Ivoire due to the war which has lasted for 5 years . I am an orphan. My name is Kangundu Gaelle. My father Mr Kangundu Prince was assassinated by rebels. I am with my younger brother John.
My father is died following an assassination by the rebels in our country and my mother died when I was 2 years old.
We are alone. Before the death of my father he left documents concerning a trunk he has deposited in a security company which was intended for a foreign partner.
My father before his death had deposited 7.2 million dollars in a security company in a trunk box with the aim of investing it in Europe. our father told us about the this money and we have all the documents relating to the fund.
Upon our arrival in Cote d'Ivoire, we wanted to withdraw money but the director told us that this was impossible because my father had left strict instructions on the box. He told them that the trunk box was designed his foreign partner. He did not revel the name of his foreign partner. We want you to help us remove the money from the security company
in representing the partner of my father because in reality this partner exists nowhere. The trunk box will then be furnished to you there in your country, then we will send you the key code to open the box and send us some money to join you so that we will invest this money together in your country.
We will give you 20% of the total sum for your help. For the process of this transaction, I need Your address:Your telephone Your fax
An International Passport or your I.D.
And the address of your home.
All we need from you is to contact the security company for them to move the box to your address which you will proved as a partner of our late father. and the society company will ship the package through diplomatic Means. I await your quick answer with your details to begin procced with the company and security.
May God bless you
Miss Gaelle.
