From Mrs Victoria Bissou  
Cotonou  Rep.of Benin  
West Africa.    


Dear friend,    


I am a widow  to the late principal accountant of  Sierra Leon central bank who was assassinated due to political hostility  
in my country. For the sake of our lives, we fled to the neighbouring  republic of Benin where we are seeking refuge until my 
son was  evacuated to Europe recently where he is also seeking asylum.    


We decided to search for an external assistance because we are having  problems recovering a large deposit made by our late father 
overseas since the company maintained that instructions left by our late husband the original depositor states that the funds 
be "RELEASED TO MY FOREIGN REPRESENTATIVE ONLY", believing he would appoint someone by himself to  represent him for the claim 
but eventually he died earlier thereby  making it impossible for us to go any further regarding this claim.    

Most importantly, your ability to put the said funds into circulation  wisely for our joint interest and relocating us is a major 
considerable  factor regarding our request as our knowledge on financial matters is  not enough to handle an amount of money above 
(us$10,000,000.00) ten million alone.    

On your personal advise,We are also considering the below options as areas  relative to our interest to put the said funds working.    
1) hospitality industry  2) farming and acquisition of farmlands    

In view of this, if you are touched to work with us in sincerity, by  standing as my late husband,s foreign representative to receive 
the said  deposit on our behalf, we shall embrace you as our new found  parent/family and will compensate you accordingly.    As you 
indicate interest, please be fast to contact my son Levi on  this email address (bissoulevi@walla.com )  to enable him give you  further 
information relative to the presence/position of funds and the  steps we shall take to finalize on the project.    

Do not hesitate to include your personal telephone/fax numbers as this  will facilitate communication between you and my son.    

Thanking you in advance for your kind and urgent response, more so for  keeping our proposal to your self.    

Sincerely  V.Bissou
