Dear Friend,
My name is MRS KATHERINE GORDON citizen of Filipinos , I am the wife of the special advicer to President JOSEPH ESTRADA, president of Philippine and he died on the May 15, 2004. My husband felt sick and it was transferred to France hospital (paris) purpose of medical treatment but he died and he was buried. As his wife and also widow , I inherited the total sum of 10.5million dollars (Ten million five hundred thousand dollars) which my late husband made during his services as the special advicer to the president, the money which is kept in a metal trunk box is deposited with safety security company here in Philippine. Because of the instruction and agreement that my late husband fixed before the deposit and for a sake of security purpose. For this reason, the company used of the diplomacy to transfer the consignment (the box) to Abidjan in Cote d'ivoire where it is secured and safe. This transfer was coded in accordance with the agreement which guides us that the
contents contains of the trunk box is family valuables for export.
Because the company does not know the contents of the trunk box which they were transferring out from Philippine here to Cote d'ivoire as they are transporting the box as diplomatic bag. My major concern today is to retrive the box out from the security company in Cote d'ivoire for another destination due to the crisis over there.
I need your urgent assistance to move this box out from cote d'ivoire to your country ,Thus whatever the address that you think of being sure and secured you will give the security company in Cote d'ivoire to shipment the box.
I am trusting this fund in your hand. Of course you will have a reasonable percentage of 20% of the total $10.5million. In fact, since the death of my husband, his brothers seriously search to confisicate all his properties because i am a widow, They successfully confisicated all my late husband's properties, however they never stopped, they asked me to give them the various code to his inner chamber were he kept all the importants documents, I refused and they took me to court inother to claim all my late husband's properties, I can not be able to make any international calls or recieve for my security reasons,but I will be only recieving emails from you to know how you have gone with the security company in Cote d'ivoire. Considering the pressure that my beautiful family mounted on me the situation becomes unverifiable due I am a widow.
The government also exerts strong pressures on me. had for that I decided to find a person worthy of confidence which could help me to recover this Box in Cote d'ivoire and deliver to your address. I am a widow and I am disabled and I can do nothing. Come to my rescue because the situation becomes difficult to me. If you are willing to assist me, send me your telephone numner and fax, residential address so I will forward it to the security company in Cote d'ivoire to arrange the shipment of the box to your address.
I will soon send you the certificate of deposit and agreement of deposit which the company issued for the box .I need your assistance because it is not good that the box stay too long in Cote d'ivoire for security reasons.I need confidential over this transaction and you should help to invest this money in a good investiment in your country.
If you are ready to accept this offer, write me.
All the informations will be send to you as soon as I heard from you.
Yours Sincerely,
Mrs Katherine Gordon.
