From Miss Aisha Kone

ABIDJAN COTE D IVOIRE

WEST AFRICA

Dear Respectfull one

Good day to you,I have a proposal for you-this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will,i am happy to request for your assistance and also to go into business partnership with you, i believe that you will not betaryed my trust which i am going to lay on you.

I am Miss Aisha Kone ,21 years old and the only daughter of my late parents MR.and MRS MUSTAPHA KONE. My father was a highly reputable business magnet-(a cocoa merchant)who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days.

It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Febuary 2004.Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time.But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 4 years old, and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on Febuary 12th 2004 he called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of Ten Million United State Dollars.(USD$10 000 000) left in a security company in a mettalic trunk box, but the security company didn't know the content because it was registered as family valuables personal for security reasons.

I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast. The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. please,I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards.Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions:-

1. Can I completely trust you?
2. What percentage of the total amount in question will be good for you?

Please consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.

Thank you so much.

My sincere regards,

Miss Aisha Kone.

Dear Miss Aisha Kone,

What a pleasureful delight to be receiving your correspondence via the electronic informational superhighway! It puts much happiness into my chest cavity, and I am gleeful with excitement. Perhaps I shall drink many bottles of wine as I drive home from my edifice of employment this evening.

Please be assured that you can lay any amount of trust on me, and I will not betray it, even one miniscule iota. Unless you want me to, if you are knowing what I am meaning. Oh no! Please do not misundertake me. I am making joke for laughters.

I am deepeningly saddening at news of the loss of your father. I remember him in great amounts of fondness. I recall meeting him at the 2002 Nigerian email conference, during which he confided his secrecy in me regarding thes amounts of moneys. I remember your uncle as well, and his multiple attempts to seduce me with promises of tiger's milk and soybean futures.

I am sorry for the many sorrows in your life. I would recommend, as you are a university student, that you engage in many self-destructive behaviors, including substance abuse and making loves with numerous mens and womens. They will bring you pleasures and joys greater than anything that may be found in metallic trunks.

Regarding the magazines of this dollar amount, I would like to be helpful, but i am currently very busy in my current businessed identity as the CEO of a multinational baked goods provision agency, and additionally limited due to my legal status of probation due to an unfortunate incident during which I wandered naked through the premises of a debutante ball for the daughter of the Beninese Prime Minister. I would greatly appreciate any assistance that you can offer to me in my current state of hard copy.

1. You can trust me. completely. Forever. I will eat cats for you.
2. I would like one million percent of all of the amounts in all of the questions.

Aisha, if this transaction is completed, I would ask that you join me in American States and take my hand as bride. I will bring you both happiness and many baked goods.

I love you.
