Subject: Dearest One, I need your business assistance
Dearest One,
My proposal to you will be very surprising, as we have not had any contact before. I got your contact address through my desperate search for a reliable person/company for investment partnership. I am very sorry to intrude into your mailbox, but I guess you will understand .
My name is Roseline Mpele , I'm 21 yrs old girl living in Cote d'ivoire . My father was a highly reputable business magnate-(a cocoa merchant) who operated in the capital city of Ivory coast during his days. It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business
trips abroad on August 7TH 2006 . Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who traveled with him at that time. But God knows the truth!
My mother died when I was just 8 years old, and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on August 7TH 2006 he called his secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told her that he had a sum of $5.5 million US DOLLARS (Five Million Five Hundred thousand USD)deposited in a
suspense/ fixed deposit account with one of the local banks here in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
He also explain to his secretary that the funds was meant for an investment purpose in overseas before he met his untimely death meanwhile as his only daughter, he used my name as the next of kin to the funds. Further he told his secretary to inform me that whenever I am ready to go and claim
the funds at the bank where it was deposited that I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer the money to and use it for an investment in this area below:
1). Telecommunication
2). The Transport Industry
3). Five Star Hotel
4) Estate management.
Now I would be very happy and glad if you can assist me in clearing this fund into your account overseas for an investment in one of the suggestion area I mention above.
I am a young girl and beside I do not know anything about business world more so I am high school leaving certificate holder and really do not know what to do. I want you to provide an account where the fund will be transfer. If interested in doing this with me, kindly indicate by answering my
question below.
1. Can you honestly help me as my foster parent / guardian?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after the money is in your account?
Note that I can never lure you to what your mind does not want; I am only trying to express my present state of living to you as a true fellow.
Let me know your opinion on this. Remain bless in the lord while I await your prompt response.
Once again thank you so much.
Sincerely Yours, Roseline
