Message details: From: Rubel Ousmane Email: rubel_ousmane1@yahoo.fr Subject: Business relationship (Sent via Activerain)

Dearest one,

Please I would like to enquire your advise if you can be of my help. I want you to help me in the investment which I want to do in your country, though I have not meet you before, but I am fully convinced that you are the right person to help me. Some times in life one need to confide in another to succeed in life. My name is Rubel Ousmane, I am from Sierra Leone and I am 19 years and I was in the higher school when my father died and I could not continue with my education. I am single and living all alone here in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire as both my father and mother are dead and there is no body to take care of me and my education. I have USD$9.2m which was deposited in the bank here by my late father Dr. Leoard A. Ousmane and all the deposit documents are all with me as my late father gave them to me before he died. The name of the bank is; Bank of Africa (BOA), Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire. As you know the transaction involves a lot of money and I will like you to confirm to me your sincere willingness and your capability to handle the investment of the money in your country because I have no experience of business investment. I will want us to invest the money in real estate and five star hotels or any other investment you will introduce in your country. Secondly, I will need to introduce your name to the bank as my late father foreign business partner who is to receive and invest the money in his country so that the bank will contact you and transfer the money to you. As soon as the bank transfers the money to your country you will help me to come over to your country to continue my education why you invest my own share of the money on my behalf. At this point I will like you to tell me as soon as you received this message the percentage which you will take for helping me in this transaction. In case you want to see and read the deposit documents of the money in the bank; you let me know in your reply mail so that I will scan them and send to you through email attachment. I will stop here so far until I hear back from you as soon as possible you receive this mail. Please contact me with this email address: (rubel_ousmane1@yahoo.fr) Thanks and my greetings to you and your family. Yours sincerely, Rubel Ousmane

This is a variation of a well-known Nigerian email scam.  Don't fall for it.  I'm saying this because people do, that's why they still try this.  Kind of like why "Viagra" spam emails haven't stopped.  8% of the people who get spam email BUY the offer, like fools...you want viagra go see your doctor.
