Good day my dear ,

I presume this letter will come to you as a suprise,but as things unfold, we will know each other 
better and how I got your contact. I will start by introducing myself to you; I am Mrs. Margerat 
Ayii the wife of Chief Isaac Ayii, a former director with the Transport Ministry here in Benin 
Republic.
I am very sure that you will be of a good assistance after carefully reading my letter. 

For many years of marriage now between me and my husband, I was not able to give birth, and this 
has been the problem since the death of my husband .This is as a result of so much respect attached 
to local tradition, culture and customs in there community that either of his relatives has to 
remarry me, as it stands they have all married men and I can not see myself being a second or third 
wife. 
I am being threatened daily by my husband's relatives to get me out from the home and they have 
succeeded in taking away all that I suffered with my husband to acquire. 
This situation has really affected me psychologically, most of the time I am in the church to pray 
and rest myself, because there is no room for rest in my own home again. As I am writing to you 
now, I am no longer assured of a matrimonial home, hence I seek your urgent assistance and help me 
out, which I know will go a long way in getting me settled down and start up a new life.

I want to use this opportunity, since my husband has died and do not have a child of my own, to 
move the $18 million us dollars into your custody for safe keeping, pending my arrival in your 
country. Be informed that this said amount was given to my husband as gratification from some 
foreign shipping companies he helped in securing Allocation at the Benin seaport. As a civil 
servant he does not want to be exposed, so he deposited this money with one of the banks in my name 
and this was when the going was okay between us, so that he can exonerate himself from the eyes of 
Government security operatives and the civil service commission (CSC) which is the body that 
scrutinizes the activities of all civil servants in Benin Republic as checks and balances for 
official misconduct.
To be sincere and honest with you, this money is never connected with drugs, money laundry, and 
firearms and looting, which I believe might put fears in you and consequently withdrawing your help 
for security reasons hence the source of this said money is clean and clear.

Be rest assured that this transaction is 100% risk free and as soon as I receive your response and 
your willingness to help as regards to this, I will inform my lawyer to contact you immediately. As 
soon as the money is in your possession, I will start coming to meet you in your country. I promise 
to compensate you very well at the successful end, this is the guarantee I am giving you from my 
heart.
Thanks and God bless your family.
Mrs Margerat Ayii.
