Dear Beloved one,
Based on your profile, l am happy to request for your assistance because I beleive that you are not going to betray the trust which I am going to lay on you, Hope all is well with you and Other members of your family.
My name is Miss sophia ahmed,22 years old and the only daughter of my late parents Mr.and Mrs ahmed. My father was a highly
reputable Contractor Engineer 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 6th.November 2006.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time, but God knows the truth!
Though I have not meet with you before but I believe, one has to risk confiding in succeed sometimes in life. There is this huge amount of (six million Eight hundred thousand) U.S dollars ($6.8m) which my late Father Mr.ahmed. Michael.kept for me in Finacial Security Company here in Abidjan. My father told me that I should not let any of our relations to know about this because he
was kiled by them and if they know about it, that they will do nothing but to kill me in other to take hold of every thing, He told me that I should seek for a foriegn partner abroad who will help me to retrieve this Trunk Box and also travel with him or her in other to continue my Live and Education and also to start a Business relationship with the person whom can take care of me in the fucture
I am just 22 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. 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, My dear, I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards and your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.
Now permit me to ask these few questions:
1. Can I completely trust you?
2.Can you accept me as your own blood Sister (Or Daughter)?
3.What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you?
Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible with your full assurance that you will not disapoint me in this issue so that i can give you the contact of the Security Company where my late Father deposited the Trunk Box for you to contact them on how to retrieve the Box from their Company and tranfer it to you in your country,Thank you soo much for your understanding and may almighty God bless you and your Family to the Glory of God Almighty,
My sincere regards,
Miss Sophia Ahmed

Lulz, Sophia, why couldn't you just cut to the chase and ask me for my Checking Account # + Routing #?
I'm assuming others on this site have received the same PM?
It is quite sad though, when forum PM boxes start getting filled with scam offers. I hope this isn't the start of spam/junk cluttering up the PM box as well... |

I get these all the times.
But they usually start with "I hear you're a good looking guy" |

lol, well that'll set my mind at ease, knowing at least one other has been shafted just as bad.
She said she's 22. Maybe I could be more than a 'sister' to her. |
