subject More Information

Thanks for your prompt responds and my heartily greetings to you this day, thanks also for your interests in helping me with the fund transfer and investments in your country, please promise me that you will not betray me when my inheritance funds is transferred into your account. [me never I'm a man of the ah erm McDonalds]

Dear Daddy, I wish to inform you that I am a first year Medical student of Cocody University of Abidjan Cote d’Ivoire before my father died which made it impossible for me to continue my educational carrier here. I lost my mother when I was very young, I didn't even know her. My father didn't remarry again because he loved my mother so much, so I became his only child and he took me so special and did everything for my sake and also deposited the fund in the bank for my sake and for my future.

I would also want to meet with the bank here to request for the transfer to your account as soon as possible. I want you to know that I want to leave here within the shortest possible time because I've been humiliated, harassed, and frustrated by my immediate uncles in their efforts to take over all my late father's wealth, according to African tradition, whereby if a man dies without a son, all his properties will be shared among his brothers that is (my uncles) This is why my father deposited the funds in a fixed/suspense account for further transfer to overseas bank account.

Dear Daddy, my continuous stay here is not in my best interest as my life is not guaranteed here due to the injustice, current political crisis and killing of innocent people in this country. The fund in question is in my name but a mandate was placed on the account by the depositor which is my father. He mandated the bank to transfer the funds to his foreign business partner's account which shall be provided by me, being the next of kin to the deposited funds, This is why I require a good overseas bank account where the funds will be transferred to enable me leave here as soon as possible.

Dear Daddy, since my father died, I have been on the run to avoid being killing by the people that killed my father as my father seriously warned me that I should avoid his business friends and his brothers and sisters on the event of his death because they are the people behind his untimely death. Right now as I am writing to you I am in a local hotel here for a hide out and nobody knows about it except as I am telling you now and I want you to keep it confidential for my security reasons, I must be very careful and precaution should be my watchdog.

Base on the genuineness of this transaction I must not hesitate to provide you with my Valid IDENTITY CARD and pictures for your perusal and confirmation please kindly find below my address and other information’s for your references. I am sending you these details in trust and confidence and would want you to keep them absolutely confidential for security reasons please:

I don't know why I put the name of my site on the photos Sad

Never mind, can you get some 'more' photos of the lovely Ms Geraldine Gerald in even skimpier garb, if you know what I mean Wink

She's probably an ITP, so asking for the 'V' shot might be a bit naughty.

GothicCrow: I thought it was a fake website that a lad gave you. Then after seeing that your username match I finally understand now.

GothicCrow, you may want to deface the photos a bit more. This can be quite easily cropped off to ge a reusable pic. (Altho these pics seem pretty harmless and easy to comy by anyway, excpet for maybe the passport.)
