CRY FOR HELP.
Dear friend,
Following the sudden death of my Father, XXXXXXXX, the former head of state of YYYYYYYYYY in June 1998, I have been thrown into a state of utter confusion, frustration and hopelessness by the present civilian administration.
Security agents in YYYYYYY have subjected me to physical and psychological tortures. One of my brother is still under detention as well as arraigned before a High Court of XXXXXXXXX for an offence he did not commit. As a young boy, that is so traumatized, I have lost hope and confidence in anybody within the country. You must have heard over the media and the Internet on the recovery of various huge sums of money deposited by my late husband in different security firms abroad. Some willingly gave up their secrets and disclosed our money confidently lodged with them and many out-rightly declined lodgment. In fact the total sum discovered by the Government so far is to the tune of $700 million dollars. And the government has not relented in its efforts to completely bring my children and I back to square one. This is why I deemed it necessary to act fast by contacting anybody abroad for assistance. Furthermore, due to the security network placed on my daily activities I cannot afford to visit any embassy for a possible solution, hence I have decided to contact you and I do hope you will be the person God is going to use to rescue my family and I.
I have deposited the sum of $18 million dollars in a security firm in ABROAD as whose name is with held for now for security reasons until we fully commence communication. I shall be grateful if you could receive this fund on my behalf for safekeeping. Adequate arrangement has been made for receiving the fund. It is totally risk free. This arrangement is known to you and my other members of my family including my mum.
You are entitled to 30% of the total sum. I hope to invest a proportion of the balance in your country.
Please forward your private Telephone and Fax numbers so that we can fully commence communication immediately. I will quite appreciate, if you accept my proposal in good faith. I look forward to receiving your urgent reply to my plea.
Reply through my e-mail.
Yours truly,
MR XXXXXXXX
