Subject: Dear Sir/Madam
Dear Sir/Madam,
l know this proposal will come to you as a surprise, I got your contact through the internet – due to serious searching for a reliable personality.
I am a widow who lives in Ghana, 48yrs of age. I have a daughter who is the joy of my life. My late husband was a loving, caring and hardworking businessman who died unfortunately in an auto crash.
Before the sudden death of my beloved husband and father of my daughter, my late husband intended to establish a business in the united states of America with the sum of $5,200,000.00 United states dollars, but unfortunately he died before this proposed venture.
Following his death, his family members are telling me that I am not entitled to his property (Assets and money) because I am a woman and my offspring is a female as well, (according to some barbaric traditional laws here in Ghana (Africa) which doesn’t permit a woman to inherit a man’s property ), but I and my child will be cared for by the late husband’s family who will take over the management of his business and other properties.
Unfortunately for these wicked family members, the $5,200,000.00 United states dollars which my late husband intended to use in establishing a business in the United States was deposited in a bank account unknown to his family. I and the lawyer are the only one aware of this money, so I have discussed this matter with the lawyer that I want this money personally and he agreed, based on some compensation.
According to the lawyer, the best way to secure this money is to transfer this money to a bank account outside Ghana for safe-keeping, later it will be used for business establishment with your advice and assistance, which I will also come over to your country with my daughter.
Please get back to me as soon as you receive my message to enable me to reach with the lawyer.
Best Regards
MARIAM WASWA
