Hi Dearest ,

Request to assist me transfer an inheritted money and assist me come over to your country to continue my education.I know how surprise this letter will be to you, But I would advice that you consider it as a request from an orphan for assistance.

l am Miss Magdalene Barack, the only daughter of late Engr and Mrs Michael Barack .My father was an Engineer and Contractor with the Government of Cote D'ivoire in Abidjan here, the economic capital of Ivory Coast, he was poissoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings on business
While my father was rushed to the hospital , he quickly sent for me as the only born daughter before his untimely death.He told me all about this (US$5.7
million ) Five Million Seven Hundred Thousand Unite States dollars ,he deposited here in a bank for future investiment on my name as next of kin.

But as you may be already aware by now, my country (Cote d'Ivoire) is presently at war caused by political crises. Rebels have already taken over the whole Northern part of the country and making efforts towards the capture of the commercial center of the country Abidjan, where i am now. For this urgly development in this country,I have now decided to take quick actions and have this money transferred out of this country before it is too late. I am honorably seeking your assistance in the following ways:

(1) To assist me to transfer the money into your bank
account.

(2) To make arrangement for me to come over to your
country to further my education and then settle there parmanently.I will offer you 20% of the total money after transfer.

Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein and Keep this contact confidential till when this money get to your Custody,this is to ensure
that nothing jeopardizes my last wish on Earth.No matter what your decision may turn to be I humbly begging you to reply to me
Thanks and God bless you
