From Mr. John Anderson

My Dear.

Good day, I hope all is well. It is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I intend to establish with you in your country, though we have not met before, but one you have to believe in someone to succeed.

I’m 18 years old and the only son of my father, Late Mr. & Mrs. Ruben Anderson, a native of Bouna, Republic of the Ivory Coast or (IvoryCoast). Because the ongoing civil war series in my country for several years ago, there is this huge amount of eight million, five hundred thousand US dollars (US$15.500,000.00) which my late father deposited in BANK Ivory Coast here before my parents were murdered by some unknown enemies.

Now I decided to invest this money in your country or anywhere safe place enough for security and political reasons. I ask you to help me to invest this fund in your country in any lucrative venture.

Now let me ask a few questions:-

  1. Can you honestly help me as your friend or family member?
  2. Can I completely trust you?
  3. You can have me a good school for the continuation of my education Carrier, which was interrupted by the sudden death of my parents?

If you can be an honest and sincere care for me, I’ll be satisfied to offer you 15% of the total fund for their help and human.

More details will be made known to you upon confirmation of your interest to help me.

I am immensely waiting for your urgent response.

With due regards,

From Mr. John Anderson.
