From Samuel  and  Anick Okanga 
24 Rue de marcony.
Bouake Cote d'ivoire.
 
Sir/Ma,
Warm greetings to you and your family in the name of God. I am aware that this is not a formal 
approach in starting a relationship, but as time goes on, you will realise the need for my 
approach.  My email to you will come as a surprise since i don't know you in person. But if this 
message comes to you out of your wish, i am  very sorry. I hope that you will read through this 
email and understand how difficult things can be for someone in a particular period in life. 

My name is samuel Okanga , i was a student in the University of  Bouake , Cote d'Ivoire I am the 
only Son of late Chief  Isaac  Okanga Some rebel from one part of the government struck our 
township and killed my parents because my father was one of the oppositions to the former president 
of my country.

Shortly before this unfortunate incident, my father had informed me about an  important business 
deal he had executed with some of his colleagues in the office. He told me that he had diverted 
some money totaling  Nine  million  Five  hundred US dollars (US$9.5M)  which they had realized 
from the sale of coco cacao in the black market. 
 
He told me that  he deposited the money encased in a trunck box with a security /safe deposit 
company here in Abidjan, Cote d' Ivoire. He informed me in confidence that seciurity company did 
not know the exact contents of the box ; rather, he told them that it contained African art work 
that he had assembled for his overseas partner who would soon be coming to claim them for 
exportation. 
 
As a result of this explanation, the box was accepted for safe-keeping by the  security company 
without inspection. When the  situation in  our  township  worsened, I manage to escaped into 
Abidjan Cote d Ivoire with my only younger sister and had since contacted the security company, 
identified myself properly and informed them about the sad fate my father had suffered. 

I presented the lodgement documents and they confirmed that they have the trunk box in their vault. 
So I informed them that I intend initiating contacts with my fathers overseas partner who owns the 
consignment so that he can come and take delivery of it. My decision to retrive this box, transfer 
the money and start a new life forms the basis of this enquiry from you.
 
Now my 17years-old sister and myself are alone in  Abidjan suffering without any care or help. 
without any relation, we are now like refugees and orphans. Our only hope now is in this fund our 
father deposited in the Security company. I humbly solicit your assistance in the followings ways,
To assist me claim this fund from the Security Company as my father's business parthner abroad and 
co-beneficiary.
To retrieve this money from the Security Company in your name  and trasfer it to your country.
To make a good arrangement for a joint business investment on our behalf in your country and you as 
the caretaker.
To secure a college for my little sister and my self in your country to further our education and 
to make arrangement for our travel with you to your country after you have transferred this fund.
 
If you can assist  me  on these  points above, I shall give you 10% of the total 
money while setting aside 5% for all incidental expenses that may arise in the course of 
actualising the transaction (such expenses as phone calls fax messages ) Please i need to inform 
you that this matter is confidential, I want you to treat it as such  Please i am begging you to 
help me by indicating your interest in your reply to this mail if willing. Trusting to hear from 
you immediately through my private emai ( samuelokanga1@yahoo.com ) so we will discuss the modality 
of this transaction.

Best regards,
Samuel  & Sister
