Dearestful.
Greetings to you. I have a proposal for you-this
however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner
compel you to honour against your will. I am Monica
Kumar 20 years and the only Duaghter of my late
parents Mr.and Mrs.Kumar Gary Waterman from Indian.
My father was a highly reputable busnness magnet-(a
cocoa merchant)who operated in the capital of Cote
D'Ivoire during his days. It is sad to say that he
passed away mysteriously in France during one of his
business trips abroad ,12th.Feb 2005.Though his sudden
death was linked or rather suspected to have been
masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled
with him at that time. But God knows the truth! My
mother died when I was just 4 years old,and since then
my father took me so special.
Before his death on Febuary 12 2005 he called the
secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told
her that he had a sum of $11.200,000 U.S Dollars(
Eleven Million two thousand U.S Dollars) ) Bank here
in (Cote D'Ivoire),Abidjan.
He also explained to me that it was because of this
wealth that he was poisoned by his business
associates, That I should seek for a foreign partner
in a country of my choice where I will transfer this
money to and use it for investment purposes.
I want you to assist me for transferring the fund into
your account from the bank
where the fund is prsently now. I would also forward
you the Certificate of Deposit
and the Bank Agreement Documents as a beneficiary of
the fund,
I am just 20 years old and a university undergraduate
and really don't know what to do.Now I want an account
overseas where I can transfer this funds.This is
because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result
of incessant political crisis here in Cote D'Ivoire.I
will give you 25% out of the whole fund.
The death of my late father actually brought sorrow to
my life.Dearest one,I am in a sincere desire of your
humble assistance in this regards Your suggestions and
ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask
these few questions:-
1. Pls Can you be trust?
2. Your Full Names?
3. Your Telephone and fax Number?
4. Your Address? Please Consider this and get back to
me as soon as possible.
You should be endeavour to contact me through this
email address:monica_wilfred@vip.sohu.com<address%3Amonica_wilfred@vip.sohu.com>
Thank you so much.
