Dear Miss Beauty,

Thank you for writing. How are you? I need your help, you are the only one who can help me in this situation. I am trying very hard to leave my home country of Nigeria. I have all travel plans made and passports. The problem with this is that I cannot access my money which I have put into the bank. They will only let me withdraw it if I deposit it directly into another bank in the country I am moving to. This country I am moving to happens to be the very country in which you reside! I believe we are meant to be together and I will be with you. But first. I need you to deposit my money into your bank account. Then I will arrive. I will withdraw the money. Give you one half. We will be together. But first. I need your bank account number and the routing number. I also need your pin number. We will be together. This is meant to be.

Sincerely yours truly.

Prince Abadabandtman Rhsogogemdihn.
