Subject: From Fillomina (I NEED YOUR HELP PLS)
Greetings My dearest One,
You may be surprised about this letter or how I linked to you as someone you have never seen before in your life, but I believe that it is better for me to open up my feelings than to die up in silence.
I wish to express my life history to you in other to obtain assistance from you to retrieve my inheritance fund which my parents acquired on my behalf.
Briefly, my name is Fillomina Williams from Ivory Coast in West African region. I am a 22 years girl ( University Student),i am the only child to my parents. My mumy's name is Dr. Mrs. Gloria Bintu Williams. My mum died when i was four years old ( 12th dec 1988 ) and since then my dady took me so special.
My Dady is Senator Ben Collins Williams, he was a well known wealthy cocoa merchant That also made him not to be in good term with his brothers ( my uncles ). which created a very big enemity between them. I have severally adviced my dady to send me abroad so that his enemies may not seek for me to kill or wound in order to wecked him, but my dady refused saying that he needs me to stay with him due to that i am the only child he has.
But unfortunately, My dady was killed last year when he attended a ceremony in the village. he was brutaly killed and was shut by my uncles on his way back from a conference. He was admited in a private hospital here and Before the death of my father in the hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me on his bed side and told me that he has the sum of four million,eight hundred thousand United State Dollars. USD($4,800,000.00) left in fixed / suspense account in one of the prime bank here in Abidjan ,that he used my name as his only daughter for the next of Kin in depositing of the fund. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was shut by his brothers (my uncles).
That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where i will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose such as real estate management or hotel management so that i can secure my life too and be out from my uncles for my dear life .
This was how I appear as an orphan after the burial of my father, I couldn't be able to continue my study any more, even live comes so difficult to me these days to the extend that I have been drove from my universtity Campus for the reason that I cannot be able to pay the cost and the accomodation for my study.
Right now I am stranded and have ran out from the city to a nearby village because my uncles have turned out trying to eliminate me too because they wanted to inherrit all hat my dady has. but thank God i found one pastor Michael whom have been of a good assistance to me. He accommodated me in his church when i explained everything to him, and was giving me a finnancial accomodation till i finds a patner overseas whom will help me to transfer my inherritance abroad while i travels to join him and start up a new life.
My dear, I am seeking your help to retrieve the fund my late father deposited in the bank here in my city, Abidjan Ivory Coast.
my dear i am seeking your assistance in the following ways:
1) To help me transfer this fund to your country because i have informed the bank about my intensions to transfer this fund abroad and they have accepted.
2) to serve as a guardian of this fund since i am only 22yrs old.
3) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education and to secure a resident permit in your country after the transfer of the fund to your account..
Please I really desire your help to retieve the fund from the bank to your care in your country so that I will travel to meet you over there to continue my study and also invest the fund after my education in your country.
I am willing to offer you any percentange of your wish provided my life is restored for my furture. Please reply me this letter as soon as possible, I will give you more details and the information of the bank where this fund is deposited.
