Dearest One.
My name is Lora Dan, the only Daugter of Dr Albert Dan from Republic of Cote D'Ivoire.
I know it is normal and natural for you to wonder why I contacted for assistance in this transaction when we have not met each other before,
I am pleading that you be patient with me because I have no choice than to do what I am doing now since it is the only way out of this problem I found myself based on the fact that most times in life, One must confide in another Person to survive, which i am doing now with all the trust and confidence that you wont betray all the trust that i am reposing on you to handle and invest my inheritance under your company
I therefore decided to contact you to find a solution to my problem irrespective of the fact that we never knew each other, please do not misunderstand me since a journey of hundred miles starts with a step, I am therefore begging you to accept me with an open heart and mind, it is the situation I found myself that made me to contact you and ask for your assistance.
I am contacting you to assist me transfer the Sum of US$ 22,7.000.00 I inherited from my Late Father which he made from the sale of Crude Oil and Coco Business for investment in your Company under your Management while I continue my education because my education stopped abruptly due to the death of my Father. My mother died after giving birth to me, so I never knew my mother. Behold, my only hope and courage in life which was my father was brutally killed by unknown assasins.
Moreover, I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your effort/input after the successful transfer of the fund into your nominated account overseas, while 5% will be set aside to offset any expenses we may incur.
Many thanks to you if you can help me Please contact me immediately you receive this message so that i will give you all the details you surpose to know before contacting the bank on my behalf, i am now in Dakar Senegal because i run out frommy country since after the death of my father for security purposes and here i dont have any body to stay with i am living in the church through the help of one Pastor who i meet on my way to this country after explaining my situation he agreed for me to stay at the church until i find helper to assist me transfer my funds.
Thanks and God Bless you abundantly.

Lora Dan.
