my Dear
My name is linda cojo the next of kin and doughter of late Chief Mallon cojo, My father was a very rich and traditional African and made a lot of money from the sales of Diamond and Crude Oil. we are all from Liberia.
On the 7th day of May 2003 My father was on his way back from off shore he was attacked by some rebel fighters who killed him. me and my mother Mrs. Marian Mallon cojo and my little brother David he is 23years, inherited the sum of (ten Million U.S Dollars) from my father. Before the death of my late father, we had already flew from our country(Liberia) to Ghana because of the war in our country where i lost my little sister, and after the death of my late father, My father lawyer did came to meet us in Ghana and then he gave us my father death certificate and document that stated he deposited his fund with a bank in Senegal, for safekeeping and transfer.
I and my mum flew to Senegal for the claim of the fund, we located the bank and presented all the legal documents to the bank, but the bank refuse to give to us the fund of my father, they told us in the bank that my father has already registered the fund unexpress transfer to Leave Africa, so we speek to the head of treasury depatment of the bank and he advice us to look for a forign parter to help us contact the bank for the claim of the fund
Me and my mother want you to help us receive this funds as our foreign partner, you help us contact the bank, to stand for us before the bank as the new beneficiary of this fund. we will also want you to help us invest the fund in a life time investment in your country since i am still a young girl without business idea, My mum will give to you 20% of the total sum of money invested in your country, I and my mum also need your advice on wat to invest the fund in your country and also said that before this fund can be release or transfer to you, that you will have to sign an agreement with my family so that we can trust you cause you know we have not meet you before.
I know you it may surprise you but it the is truth and no one expect you knew that we are still alive and in Senegal that is why you must keep this as a top secret to yourself alone, because we for safety of our life my mother said i should tell you and all the legal documents covering this fund are with my mother. Please we need your help to get our fund and leave senegal and start a new and happy life, As soon as the fund is transfered to you, I will come to your country and if everthing is ok, I will come back to get my mum and my brother out of senegal, and if its ok for you to also come to senegal and meet me and my family and help us here it also very nice
