Dearest,

My name is Miss Sussan kamara and i am 24 years, single and never been married, i am from Darfur region in Sudan, Sudan in Africa and i am presently residing in the missionary here in Abidjan-cote d' ivoire where i ran for refuge due to the political civil war in my my region daffor. I am sufferings from pains here in this missionary camp and i really need help from a man or woman who will be encouraging me and advising me of good life and to help me to come out from this situation.

Again to help me secure my little sum amount which i inherited from my father, because my late father deposited some amount of money for me in the Bank before he died and he used my name as the next of kin.

My late father Dr. kamara Ellison Kassala, who was CEO of (ELLISON TECHNICAL INDUSTRIAL COMPANY PLC), in Port Sudan in Sudan. During the war, the rebel loyal to one of the greedy business associate of my late father attacked our house one early morning and killed my mother and father in a cold blood. It is only me that is alive now and i managed to make my way to this country Cote d' ivoire by the help of UN army where i am living now in the missionary, headed by a Reverend Father, i used his office computer to send you this email and i only enter his office when he is less busy in his office

I would like to know more about you, what you likes or dislikes and your hobbies or what you are doing presently? i like to meet understanding, loyal, sincere, truthfully, kindly and friendly and more to that, a man or woman of vision and truth. I will tell you more about myself in my next mail including my picture so that you will see whom i am.

I will be hoping to hear from you again.
I remain yours
Sussan kamara'

VIEW MAILFROM:christthekingDATE:07/24/2008 08:14:09SUBJECTSear Child of God,Dear Child of God, Calvary greetings in the name of our lord and personal saviour amen. My name is Mrs Monica Usawh ,from Cote D' Ivoire .I am married to late Mr Ronie Usawh, who worked as a senior manager with the Ivory Coast refinary for Twenty-Six years before he died in the year 2005,after a brief illness that lasted for only five days. We were married for Eighteen years with a son (Roger) who later died in a motor accident. Before the untimely death of my husband,we were both born again Christians. Since after his death I decided not to remarry due to often ill health . When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of one Million,three hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$1.3m) in a General Trust Account with a prime bank in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire. Presently,this money is still with the bank. Recently,Following my ill health, my Doctor told me that I may not last long due to my cancer problem.The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to someone that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein,according to the desire of my late husband before his death. I want this fund to be used in Christain Activities like,Orphanages, Christain schools, and Churches for propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that "Blessed is the hand that giveth". I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that "the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace". I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband's relatives around me always.I don't want them to know about this development.With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank in Abidjan. I will also issue you the documents that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the Church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Contact me on my private email address of ( cchristtheking@yahoo.com ) as any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein. Hoping to receive your reply. Remain blessed in the Lord. Yours in Christ, Mrs Monica Usawh.
