Dearest one,
How are you today? I hope that God is in control. I know that my mail will come to you as supprise? My name is Miss Nancy Richard from Ivory Coast in west africa. I am the only daughter of late Mr Mark Richard who is my father, he died after a brief illness I know that this may sound somehow to you, but this is real story of my life. My father is an international business man when he is alive and as well a politician, he was poisoned by his opponent in a conferene which leads to his death, My Mother died years ago when I was two years old according to what my father told me. Now I am contacting you because I need your help in the transfering of funds which my late father deposited in a bank here before his untimely death which he made me the next of kin over the fund the sum of $2.5 million us dollars.
When I whent to the bank after the burial of my late father to withdraw some money from the fund deposited in bank, I presented the legal documents that was given to me by my late father,Which the bank issued to him on the day of deposite, I was told that the money is still with the bank But they cannot release the money to me here in our Country or give me any money from it, Because my father made an agreement with them on the day of deposite that the fund should be transferred abroad for an investment. not knowing that my father was planning to open a company abroad,So on my way out of the bank one of the staff of the bank called me and advice me to look for a trust worthy foreign partner to help me receive the funds into his account in his country,I want you to help me recieve this money into your account so that I will join you to your country and stay there with you because life is so hard here for me since the death of my beloved father and also countinue my
Education which is very inportant to me.
Because since the death of my father my uncle is after my life he did not even care if I will
countinue my Education all he does is to be selling the properties that belongs to my father he even sold the fuel station of my father shared the houses and cars my father left behind with his brothers, When I ask him why he is selling all this things, he start calling me bastard that I dont have any right over those properties he even ask me where did my father bank his money and what did my father told me before his death that I should provide him the banking pappers of my late father since then he stoped paying for my school fews said that i must provide him the bank information of my father that is why I run out of our family house to a hotel where I am hiding now so that he will not kill me or take this deposite slip which my father gave me, the bank issued to him on the day of deposite
Please, I want you to understand that I trust you and I know you can help me because I am upset through hard moments here in Ivory Coast I believe you can understand my critical condition I trust you that is why I am telling you this as am writing to you this mail, my eyes is full of tears my promise is that I will offer you 20% percent of this money from the buttom of my heart after the transfer .
I am waiting to hear from you so that I will send you the deposite slip and some other documents for you to keep them for me until I come over to your country to start a new life and also coutinue my studies and also give you the contact of the bank where this money is been deposited for the transfer.
I am waiting for your urgent respond.

Miss Nancy.
