I've gotten this type of plea notice several times in various forms in the mail and a once as an E-mail.
How the H--L did this make it to the Forum !!??
Firstly,I don't believe a word of it. Anyone with that much $$ could easily find a lawyer or any number of willing partners to assist in her in a LEGAL endeavor.
In case it arrives later, Judy Robert has $5.5 MILLION she needs to transfer to the US, from the Ivory Coast. You get 10% for making this happen. You will be asked to send some of YOUR $$ to her first, to allow this transfer.
Say Bye-bye to your $$ She'll keep asking for more-more-more, until you are drained.

Hello dear,
Thank you for your kind reply. Happiness to hear that you will be willing to assist me retrieve this consignment deposited by my late father in the security company here in this country as you know I really appreciate the time you made out to reply to my mail to you. God in his infinite mercy will richly reward you for your concern and honesty towards me in this my difficult moment in life. God bless you abundantly.
Actually, we do not know one another neither have we met one another before but I am only seeking that you cooperate with me because I am really facing a difficult moment here in Cote d' Ivory. I have the official lodgment receipt which my late father used in lodging the money in the security company. I will release this document to you and also give you the security company's contact information as we proceed with this project for you to contact them and discuss with them as my guardian for the consignment to be released to you.
The security company will not release the consignment to me because I have not reached the age of 25 years as they agreed with my late father when he deposited the box to the security company for safe keeping. My father deposited the box as art work to avoid attracting attention to the deposit which means that the security company did not know what is inside the box. I want you to help me contact the vault company and discuss with them as my guardian for the box that contain the money $5.5 million dollars to be released to your care for you to help me come over to your country as soon as you receive the consignment.
Please, I want you to know that this money deposited by my late father in the security company here is my only hope in life as I want you to help me retrieve the consignment out from the security company and transfer the consignment to your country for me to leave this country and come over to your country to start a new life and also further my education as you will help me invest the fund in a good business while I further my education in your country till such a time that I will be grown enough to face the business that you will negotiate for me over there in your country.
Please, I desperately need your help to transfer this fund into a foreign account as soon as you receive the consignment over there in your country and for me to leave this country for a better life over there in your country. I am really facing a total rejection here and I do not have any relative in your country, it's only by the grace of God that I was able to get your contact after several fasting and praying, it seems that my sorrow increases as days goes by. I will inform you further about my self and this deposit when I receive your next message. Please anything you want to know about this transaction ask me and I will explain to you clearly.
According to the instruction of my late father, the deposit will be released and delivered to you by the security company as the money is not in a bank but in a security company vault, you will be expected to negotiate with the security company for the release of the trunk box on my behalf. I will give you the access code to enable you withdraw some money from the trunk box and send to me to enable us process the documents needed for immigration to your country where I intend to invest this money and proceed with my studies which I had to abandon when my father die. It is my strong desire to obtain a degree in community development from any of the university in your country.
Please I am in a very difficult situation here and any help I could get from you will be greatly appreciated. I am ready to sign any undertaking with you to cover your involvement in this project. It is 100% risk free and I promise that you will never have any reason to regret knowing me. I will advice you to know if you have a private email address for us to use it because of the confidential of this project. As I dont want any person to know about this project.
Please I will be glad if you send your address, ID card or any of your identity to enable me has the knowledge of who am dealing with. Also advise me if I should give you the deposit lodgment receipt and the security company's contact details so you could get in touch with them and know what will be required for them to release the deposit to you.
I am looking forward to receiving your reply so we could move ahead.
Thank you and best regards
Ms Judy Robert.
