Subject: Hi
Hi
I am the only Daughter of my late parents Mr and Mrs Nelson Smith. My father was a highly reputable business magnet
who operated in the capital 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 the 12th September 2003. 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 6yrs old, and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on September 2003, he called me and informed me that
he has the sum of Five Million, Seven Hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$5,700,000.00)left in fixed deposit account
in one of the leading banks in Africa. He further told me that he deposited the money in my name, and also gave me all the
necessary but legal documents to this fund with the bank. I am just 21 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 and after the transaction I will come and reside permanently
in your country till such a time that it will be convenience for me to return back home if I so desire. This is because I
have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast. The death of my father
actually brought sorrow to my life. I also want to invest the fund under your care because I am ignorant of business world.
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. Can you honestly help me from your heart?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you after YOU the money is in your account? Please, consider
this and get back to me as soon as possible. Immediately I confirm your willingness, I
will send to you my Picture and also inform you more details involved in this matter.
Kind Regards,
Miss Monica Smith
