Thank you also for your acceptance to assist me to get the money my late father deposited with Bank of Africa bank Abidjan as fixed deposit. I have been praying since I saw your mail and asking God if you are the real person that I will trust to transfer this money into his account that my late father suffered for. Please I do not know you and I do not no if you are a good man, it is you that is going to prove yourself to me, for me, I read your profile it interest me, to have a man of you age I will call me Father and who will take care of me. And invest the money for our both interest that was why I contact you. If you have any intention of cheating me please tell me and leave me a lone ok. Please tell me this, about your self and are you married? I contacted you to be my Guardian so that you will look after me and help to look for a better investment, so that I can invest wisely when the money transferred to you. Everything I told you about this money is real and legal. I have suffered a lot since my father died. I don’t have any body to look after me, but I have some heartless and wicked relations who want to kill me too and have the money to enrich them. That is why I don't want to have the money invested here or to leave here any more. I contacted you to help and make sure that this money will be smoothly transferred into your bank account, you will also help to source for a nice investment where you will invest and manage the money for me. You will make arrangement for me to come over to your country to continue my studies. I am presently hiding in a guesthouse were people cannot trace me easily and my feeding is just by charity help and is not my pressing problem now. I need this money to be transferred so that I can be able to have a new life altogether. I’m assuring you that any help you render to me will be much appreciated by me. I have been in great difficulties and my only hope is in this money with the Bank in their fixed deposit and that is why I needed someone that the lord will touch his mind to help me transfer this money and get me out from Africa. You have to keep this confidential and no other body should know about this, till the money is transferred to you and you bring me up to your country. Please promise me that you are not going to change your mind if the money is transferred to you, because this is the highest risk I am taken in my life. I will be sending the bank documents which my late father used in depositing the money in the bank as soon as I hear from you in my next mail. He warned me that I can only hand over these documents to someone I trust fully and who will assist me get the money and myself out of Cote D’Ivoire. So with the documents you will contact the bank and inform them that you want them to transfer the money into your account. Then you can tell the bank how to transfer the money because I do not have any experience in banking. Thank God that I found you and you have idea. The most important thing is to secure the fund with your name as my Guardian and my father Former foreign Partner so that the bank can transfer the money to you and I will come to meet you in your country. I will be very glad if you can come down here in Cote d’Ivoire, to see things your self, because seeing believes and also afford us the opportunity to see each other physically. If you can not come let me know so that we will talk and you will give me assurance of your person and I will give you more information to contact the Bank here as My Guardian. Please if you can call me this night so that I will explain to you more my room Number is +22506084810 Yours brother Peter

No

In all honesty you should have known better than to EVER give out your bank account number. I can tell in 2 sentences that this was a scam and you should never give out any information unless you are paying a bill or for something that shows a verified logo on it. NEVER give out ANY info to ANYONE!! unless you want everything you have stollen. Everyone who has email has received emails asking for money or to transfer money and there is nothing you can do except report them as spam Once that is done that email address will be taken care of but the spammers will create another one and try again so.... the simple thing to do is to check out things on www.snopes.com and see if it is ligit and if it is pray for them but... still do not give out information!
