Dearest one.
Good Day and how are you and your family as well as your work? I hope fine. Please, I am very sorry to bother you with my problem. Please know that it's not by mistake I am contacting you but by the special grace of God and for your kind assistance.
My name is Omar Touray from Cote d' Ivoire. I am 18 years old and the only child of my late parents late {Hon. and Mrs. Gabriel Touray} I do not know my mother, she died when I was a baby. My father established his cocoa business in Benin, and he died shortly of heart attack his death has now made me orphan and i am exposed to danger.
Before the unfortunate death of my father,he called me on his bedside and reveal to me about some funds $9.5 million U.S. Dollars which he deposited with a Finance Vault as a family treasure. Since the death of my father, my uncles have sent me out of our house, they said that i am a female child that i do not have any rite in the family and they call is their custom. I am presently living with a certain pastor and his family here in Benin.
My father said he used my name as his only child as his next of kin to the deposit and in case he fails to make it that I should take care of myself and get someone to help invest the money for me. I have all the papers with me here, my father did not disclose the content of the deposit to the Finance Vault to avoids the officials from raising eye brows to the funds.
Presently I have contacted the Finance Vault about my claim but they told me that my father made an
agreement with the company management that they should not release the deposit to me until I am 30 years and without a foreign partner that is why i am seeking for your assistance to help me stand before the Finance Vault as my foreign beneficiary partner or my guardian to receive the deposit in your country so that i can come over to meet you and continue my education.Please help me and stand for me as my guardian and contact the Finance Vault.
I will love it most if you will come down here so that after the transaction i will go back with you to your country for a better future. I am willing to offer to you 15% of the total sum as a compensation for your help and you are still going to be the one to help me with the investment of this money since i do not have any idea about investment. Expecting your soonest respond at , omar.touray@rocketmail.com.
Thank you and God bless you.
Truly,
Omar Touray.
