A new character is introduced as part of the scam in this reply from the scammer calling himself Rita Ben Richard :

Hello My Dear.

How is life with you,

I am very, very happy to see your answer to my mail.
How are you today? What was the night, hope in order?

mine is a bit cold here in Dakar, Senegal, my name is Rita Ben Richard from Ivory Coast in West Africa, 5.7ft tall, dark complexion, 24 years old
(never married before) and I am currently residing in the refugee camp here in Dakar as a result of the civil war was fought in my country.
My late father Dr.Ben Richard was the managing director of BenRich industry (Ltd), and he was the personal advicer to the former head of state (Late Dr Robert Guei) before the rebels attacked our house in the early morning and killed my mother and father.in a cold blood
It was only me that is alive and now, I have managed my way to a country in the vicinity of Senegal, where I live. I want to learn more about your likes and dislikes your hobbies and what you are doing currently. I will tell you more about myself in my next mail attached here's my picture,

Mine is a little hot here in Dakar, Senegal.In this camp we were not allowed to go out of the camp. It's like some one been in prison, and I hope by God's grace I will be out of here soon.

Listen to me,I have no relatives that I can go now, all my relatives ran away in the middle of the war. the only person I have now is the Reverend Sam Duke, the pastor of
(Christ for all churches) here in the Refugee camp, he was very nice to me since I came here, but I'am not living with him, I am leaving in the women's hostel because the camp have two hostels for,One for men,and the other for women.

The pastors E mail address and his phone number is this,([email protected])(+221777283456) please i want you to call and tell him that you want to speak with me. then he will send for me in the hostel, as a refugee here I have no right or any thing privilledge to have phone or whatever, because it is against the law of this country.I want to go back to my studies because I have only my first year before the incident traggic that cause me being in this situation now took place.

Listen to this I have my late father deposit account and death certificate here with me, which I have the letters, because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in a leading bank in Europe, which he used my name as the next of kin , The amount inquestion is $ 7.5 million (seven million five hundred thousand U.S.dollars). so I will like you. to help me transfer this money into your account and when this money is been transferrd into your account . you then send some money for me to get my travel documents and air ticket to come over there and leve with you.

I kept this secret for the people in this camp here. the only person who knows it is the Reverend. because he is like a father to me.because I am afraid to lose this money and if people knows about this, my life will not be save any more.

Remember,am giveing you all this information by the confidence i deposed on you. I like honest people and understanding, truthful and a man with vision, truth and hardworking.My favorite language is English, but our language is French, but I speak English very fluently.Mean while I would like you to call me when you have chance to allocate because I have to tell you more. Have a nice day and think about me.

Waiting to hear from you soon
Yours Rita
