Dear Friend,
 
I greet you in the name of our lord. My name is Mrs. Marie Mensah I am a widow and a mother of Two 
all girls. I know you will see my letter to you as an embarrassment considering the fact that we do 
not know ourselves.
 
I plead with you to be patient with me I feel very pleased to contact you for some assistance and 
business relationship. I am a Citizen of South Africa, married to a Ghanna. I live in Ghana with my 
children. My late husband was a loving, caring and hard workingman and a gold merchant who died in 
car accident. Before the sudden death of my beloved husband, and father of my two daughters, my 
late husband intended to establish a business in the United States of America with the sum of $7.8 
million United States dollars, but unfortunately he died before this proposed venture.
 
Following his death, his family members insisted that I am not entitled to his property (Assets and 
money) since I am a woman and my offspring's are all girls, as I do not have a male child for my 
husband. Well, according to some barbaric traditional laws here in Ghana (Africa), which doesn't 
permit a woman to inherit a man's property, as They are expected by tradition to take over the 
management of his properties including myself who automatically becomes a wife to one of his 
immediate brothers.
 
Unfortunately to these wicked family members, the $7.8 million United States dollars that my late 
husband intended to use in establishing a business in the United States was deposited in a bank 
account unknown to his family. I and the Attorney is the only one aware of this money, so I have 
discussed this matter with a staff of the bank that I want this money personally so that I will be 
able to take care of my children's educational needs since my husband's family members vehemently 
opposed the furtherance of their education.
 
According to the staff of the bank, the best way to secure this money is to transfer this money to 
a bank account out side Ghana For safe- keeping, later it will be used for business establishment 
subject to the Advise of whosoever finally assists us. 
 
As soon as I get your positive response, I shall provide you with all the necessary detail of this 
fund. However, I have decided to give you 40% of the total money as a reward for your sincere 
assistance and the remaining 60% of the money will be for my investment and up keep for my two 
children. Any expenses that you and I may incur during the process of this transaction will also be 
reconciled afterwards.
 
Let me have your confidential telephone, fax and mobile numbers for easier communication.
Email me with this address:   mariemine_2215@yahoo.com
 
I await your response.
 
Mrs. Marie Mensah.
