Regards,

I'm so sorry for this sudden contact. I received your email address through an online directory and I am contacting you personally because I really needed your help. My name is Stephanie Leo. I am a 24 year old girl and the only daughter of my parents who were killed during the political crises in my country, Ivory Coast.

My father worked for many years in an oil drilling company and deposited some money (7,500,000.00 USD) with my name in his bank before he died and I want you to help me transfer this money to your bank account in your country and also help come to your country to continue my education. This is because after the death of my parents, my evil uncle wants to kill me and collect my inheritance because I have no one to defend me. I have reported my uncle to the local police here in my country, but since then nothing has been done.

I seek your help in the following ways:

1. To arrange for me to come to your country after the successful transfer of this money to your account, and continue my education.

2. To help invest this money in a profitable business since I am not old enough to handle such matters

3. I want you to promise me that you will not betray me after the money enters your account, since that is what I have left. I am writing this email from a local hotel where I am currently hiding for my safety.

I am willing to offer you 20% of the money as compensation for your help after the transfer. Please reply urgently to send you more details Any delay in your response may give me space to search for another person for the same purpose. Assure me you will act accordingly as I said earlier.

Sincerely
Stephanie Leo
