Subject : From Aicha

Good a thing to write 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.

Your profile pushed me to send you this mail, I am Aicha Malik, 21years old and the only daughter of my late parents Mr. and Mrs. Sheik Malik.

My father was a highly international reputable business magnet -(a cocoa merchant) who operated in the capital of Ivory coast, Abidjan during his days.

It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in Europe during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Febuary 2001.

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 only 4 years old, and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on Febuary 12th 2001,he called me who accompanied him to the hospital and told me that he has the sum of twenty two million, seven hundred thousand United State Dollars.(USD$22.700,000)compiled in two metallic trunk boxes(Consignments) and deposited with one of the leading security company in Europe.

He further told me that he deposited the consignment in my name, and finally issued a written instruction to the security company whom he said is in possession of all the necessary but legal documents to this consignments and the security company.

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.

I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards to help me travel to Europe and clear the two trunk boxes while I forward you all the Necessary but legal documents that back up the deposit of the consignment.

Now permit me to ask these few questions: -

1. Can you honestly help me as your daughter?

2. Can I completely trust you?

3. 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. Through my private email box bellow for security reasons:(aichamalik18@yahoo.com)

Thank you so much as you read this mail comprehensively and get back to me.

My sincere regards,

Aicha Malik.
