Subject: Good day dearest one,
Good day dearest one,
How are you and your family I hope all is well if so may all praises be unto God,
It is with strict confidence and trust that I wish to contact you seeking for your assistance please Dear friend this is urgent matter am seriously in need of your support I mean your financial help. I sourced your profile from Ivorian chamber of commerce thought I do not know to what extent you are familiar with events well,
I am Miss Sufia the only daughter of late Mr&Mrs Larry Michael. From Ivory Coast please kindly accept my apology for sending this unsolicited mail to you as I know that your highly respected personality. I am an orphan being that I lost my father a couple of some years back while my mother died when am still a kid am about 5years then.
My father was a serving director of the Cocoa exporting board until his death. He was assassinated in January 2005 by the rebels following the political uprising in my country, but am sending you this mail base on deposit he made in a security company here in cote d' Ivoire the sum of (6.5 million dollars. six million five hundred thousand United State dollars) which I don't know on how to claim it back. And whereby that the security company does not know the contents of the deposit box is money and all they know is family treasures,
Because the time my late father made the deposit with them he told them that the consignment will be shipping to his foreign business partner abroad. this was his last disculssion with the security company before he died. my dear I must tell you ever since I lost my father my only hope things is not longer that easier for me like as it is before. surffring and humuliation is what am seing everyday. Since my father died since the surdden death I am only surviving from the little money kept in bank,
Please I want you to do me a favour to receive this consignment as my late father foreign associate in overseas in your country, so when everything is over I will come over to your country and make used of it. Thought I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive or worried considering the fact that we did not know nor met each other before,
But I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day trust me. Please if you are willing to assist me, do not hesitate in replying soonest, I am ready to offer you 20% of the total money out of your assistance. Please try and get back to me as quickly as you can via email furnished above for more clarifications am hoping to hear from you soon.
Thanks may God blessing and guardians be with you,
Yours Miss Sufia!
