Dear Respectful.
Warm greetings to you and your family in the name of God. I introduce my
self to you with all faith, trust and hope you will understand to assist us
not to betray us at the end. I was 20 Years old boy when my father died in a
gold mine in MENDE, Republic of Serria Leone .He was into legal gold
minning,he has succeded in saving the sum of Ten million,five hundred
thousand United State Dollars.USD($10.500,000)deposited in a Bank in Abidjan
for security reason during his Business on Gold, before he went on a trip to
Republic of Cote D'Ivoire West Africa near by country to our country to save
his money for security reasons because of the political problem in our cou
ntry.
Since the death of our father our step mother has been trying to kill us,
she has been given us a lot of problem and she have collected every thing
from us and now she still need the deposit certificate to claim this fund
but I can't give this to her because is all we have to leave with. I am 22
years while my sister Fatim is 20 years old of age we still need to go to
school and have a better education and start a new life. Our step mother
knows that our dad has such money but she don't know where exactly the fund
is been deposited.
Right now we are hiding in a refugee camp in Ivory Coast. Our father used my
name 'Malik Ahmed'as the next of kin to the deposited fund. And we ran away
with the deposit document,so nobody have access to the money now except me
and my younger sister Fatim. We need help from you to asist us to transfer
this money to your country for investment and who will be sincere to invite
us to his c ountry without cheating us or doing bad to us on my arrival with
my sister,we are willing to offer you 15% of the total sum after the
transfer of the fund to your cuntry as compensation for your effort/input.

elsewhere, you're the first person we are contacting in this isseu. Please
permit me to ask, can you honestly help us as your own people and can we
completely trust you? We are kindly requesting for this vital information
