Linda Bruno: financial difficulties and my uncle's wicked attitude

Dear Friend,

May God bless you and your family, my name is Miss. Linda Bruno, a 19 years old Girl undergraduate. I am the only child of Late Chief Dr.Edward Bruno, My father was a very wealthy Gold and Diamond Merchant in Monrovia the Gold Capital city of republic of Liberia, my father relocated to Abidjan CoteD’Ivoire because of the rebel war in Monrovia, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates in Abidjan Cote D’Ivoire while my mother died when I am still a little and my father took me so special because I am the only child. Before the death of my father on 4th August, 2007.at a hospital in Abidjan CoteD’Ivoire,he secretly called me and told me that he deposited huge sum of Four Million Nine Hundred Thousand United State Dollars ($4.900, OOO USD) at a bank in United Kingdom.

He also made me to understand that it was because of this wealth he was poisoned while on a business trip with them and he instructed me before his death that I should not retrieve the fund myself without the assistance of a foreign partner who will help me retrieve these funds out from the bank in United Kingdom.

On the 30th of December 2007 after my father burial, my uncles fly to United State of America with his children. And he told me that I do not have any right in my father’s property. My uncle seized all my father' s companies and properties because of our traditional believe that I' m a small Girl; I don’t know anything to do with money. I was left with nothing and dropped out of school because of financial difficulties and my uncle' s wicked attitude. Although I have contacted the bank in United Kingdom they confirmed the lodgement to me.

My purpose of contacting you is for you to help me, as late father advised me on his sick bed.1) To transfer this amount into your location,2) To make arrangement for me to come to your country to continue my education.3) To utilize this money by investing it in good business. I am now under hidings to safe my life from any accidental harm that might befall me from them; I am presently in a Camp by the help of a Reverend Father,

Please tell me if you will be of assistance to me after your good considerations I am willing to reward you with 10% of the money for your good assistance.

As for the money I hope you can have them under your control until I settled down. I will be glad if you will get back to me soon to tell me of your interest so that I will give you the contact information of the bank for you to contact them on my behalf as I will be introducing you. I am pleading to you with the name of Almighty God to help me out of this difficulty.

With tears on my eyes here as I am writing you this mail. Kindly get back to me please.

Am waiting urgently for your responds.

Thanks and best regards

Miss. Linda Bruno.

I am glad to receive your response. I hope you are doing well and things are going smoothly for you? I would like to meet you in your country. Mine is very hot and as you know we live in a refugee camp here. Please i really need your help the suffering is too much for me to bear please all I need from you is to help me get out of this misery and I will be under your control as long as you will send me to school to complete my education. I live in a refugee camp here in Burkina Faso as a result of the civil war that was fought in my country. In this camp we are only allowed to go out only twice in a week i have much time to seter out of camp today. This place is like a prison and with the help of God I will leave here soon.

Now, I do not have any relative whom I can go to because all my relatives ran away during the war, the only person whom I have now is Reverend Father. He has been very good to me since I came here, but I do not live with him, I live with other girls here in this camp, because in this refugee camp, there are three buildings, one building for men, the other is for women and a third building is for small children. All are victims of war circumstances of different countries. Life here in the refugee camp is very difficult, but I pray to get out of here as soon as you help me.

My late father, Chief Dr.Edward Bruno, was the personal adviser to the former head of state in my country before the rebels attacked our house one early morning killing my mother and we have to move immediately to Abidjan. It' s only me that survived,

As a refugee here I don' t have any right or privilege to any thing be it money or whatever due to my refugee status. I have the intention to further my education in your country because I only attended my first year in the university before the tragic incident that lead to my being in this situation now took place.

I have my late father' s statement of account and death certificate here with me which I will send to you later, because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in one of the leading banks in Europe which he used my name as the next of kin, the amount in question is (Four Million Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars).
As soon as I received your positive response showing your interest to help me, I will put things into action immediately. I will give you the contact of the bank in Europe so that you will contact them immediately for them to transfer the money to your accounts on my behalf.

please this is a legitimate money and the bank is also aware that I am the next of kin to the account because I have send to them the document which I collected from my father' s file, and they have also confirmed it and advise me that I should look for someone to help me facilitate the transfer, since I am still in the refugee camp.

Therefore, I will like you to help me to facilitate this transfer and as soon as the fund arrives into your account you will send me some money from it to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come over to meet you. I kept this issue secret because I don' t want the people here to know about it. The only person that knows little about this matter is the Reverend because he is like a father to me.
Please I would like you to conceal this issue to yourself and do not disclose my family' s political background to anybody around you because I don' t want people to be seeing me as fugitive when i come to reside in your country. I will be on my knees in the name of God, not to disclose this secret to anyone until I come to your country after the money had been successfully transferred into your bank account on my behalf.

I want to live in peaceful country where there is no war or problems. I want to have peace of mind and think about the good future waiting for me. This money is my only hope for future survival and I promise to bring happiness and joy in your home.

Remember, I give you all this information because of the trust I deposed on you. As soon as I received a positive response from you I will send you the contact of the bank in London so that you will contact them for the transfer. I will tell the bank that you want to invest the money for me in your country.
Please, don’t be offended to request for your personal data’s.and Check your Attachment and see my Pass photos in my fathers house,

Your full Name:
Your Country of Origin
Your full address home/office

I look forward to hear from you via this new email address: Here is my contact telephone number which the Reverend bought for me because of this project.00226:75 88 03 57.
