Please read the letter, it sounds really cool. Laughing

Dear one,
Complimment of the day. Please allow me to inform you of my desire of going into long term relationship with you for our mutual benefit. I got your contact from network directory after a profound searching for a reliable oversea partner to assist me. After going through your profile i decide to contact you. I am Ms.Faith.G.Wember abidjan, Cote D'Ivoire in west africa region. I am the only child of late Sir Gabriel Wember . My father died earlier last year as a result of poison. Before the death of my father, he was the chairman Association of cocoa and gold marchart in abidjan. The death of my father was plan and executed by my wicked uncle because of his greedness over my father's wealth. I lost my mother long time ago when i was kid. Before the death of my father in a private hospital here in my country, he called me on his sickbed and told me concerning a fund which amount seven million, five hundread thousand united state of america dollars ($8,300,000.00 dollars) he left in a fixed suspense account in a bank here in my country. My father told me that he deposited the fund in the bank with my name as the next of kin, and he further disclosed to me where to find the Fund Deposit Agreement Bond with some other relevant documents which he signed with the bank as at the time of the deposit. My father advice me that incase he did not survive, i should seek for a reliable foreign partner or guardian in a country of my choice to assist me transfer the fund into a foreign account for investment such as real estate management etc. so that i will go over there to continue my education. So my hhhhlater died after some days. Presently, the fund ($8,300,000.00 dollars) is still in the bank and i have informed the bank director concerning my interest to transfer the money to a foreign account. Dear, please i need your maximum assistance so that the bank here will transfer the money to your account in your country or any account you may provide so that i will comeover to your country to continue my education while you will help me invest the money properly. In this regards, i promise to offer you 15% of the total fund as a compensation for your effort and assistance towards the success of the transaction. Please i need your urgent help because my life is in danger here in my country. Please i advice you to contact me through my private email (wemberfaith12@yahoo.com)for oral discussion and for security reason;
I hope to read from you soon with your option.
Thanks

Maybe you won't make the phone call or buy the plane ticket, but there's always a sucker somewhere.

There was a case recently a Hong Kong lady somehow managed to get something like 20 million HKD back from these people in Nigeria who promised her a fortune.

Suckers.
