I got your contact via Internet as God wishes my name is Mrs. Gifty Abavana and I am living with AIDS.
Ever since my husband, Hon. Lawrence R. Abavana, former Ghanaian Agriculture minister died of AIDS and I was tested positive of the AIDS virus, the mass media wouldnt just let me and my family be.
My children have stopped going to school because they could no longer stand the humiliations from fellow students.
The embarrassments are getting on my nerves but what can I do? I would have loved to travel out of the country to a place where I will have peace and spend the rest of my life with my children but I couldnt make it for I am weak and severely sick. Moreover, no Embassy would grant me Visa to her Country with my hairs withering and
boils all over my body.
I will like you to keep this top secret and Confidential.
From all indications, I know that my days are numbered. In the light of The above, I have contacted you to assist me to transfer out of Ghana, The SUM OF $15 Million USD and the 250kg of Gold which my husband Deposited as [GOLD TREASURES] with a security company for the up-keep Of my children, and safe-keep it for my children as they will be coming Over to your country in due course to live and school
My Dear I need a sponsor who can finance this project and secondly after the fund is
secured YOU WILL INVEST THE MONEY FOR MY CHILDREN IN COMMERCIAL ESTATE OR ANY BUSINESS OF YOUR CHOICE YOU DEEM HEALTHY. For your effort, I am prepared to give you 25% of the total funds.
I am looking forward to hear from you while thanking you for your anticipated co-operation, in this regard I will also need your personal email address with your telephone and full name.
