This is not an email from a refugee; it was sent by a scammer. The scammer is not a refugee, nor does he have millions of dollars to invest. He intends to pretend that fees need to be paid before the money can be transfered or invested. The money, however, does not exist, and will never be received.

to music, t.v, and movies. I am the only son of Late Mr Wilson Dabor,
before my fathers death he was a very well know merchant in cocoa,
kola-nuts, cashew nuts, arts works and land developer, my father was killed
by unknown gun men no one know why he was short but before he died he is
being taking to a private hospital where he stay and died but before he
died he told me everything about this money since am the only child he has.
I am constrained to contact you because of the maltreatment I'm receiving
from my step mother, She planned to take away all my late father's treasury
and properties from me since the unexpected death of my beloved Father,
Meanwhile I wanted to escape to Europe but she hide away my international
passport and other valuable traveling documents.
Luckily she did not discover where I kept my fathers File which contains
important documents. So I decided to run to the refugee camp where I am
presently seeking asylum I wish to contact you personally for a long term
business relationship and investment assistance in your Country, My father
deposited the sum of USD$6.7 million Dollars in a Bank and $8.5 Millions in
a security company with my name as the next of kin. However, I shall
forward you with the necessary documents on confirmation of your acceptance
to assist me for the transfer and investment of the fund. As you will help
me in the investment, and i will like to complete my studies,
it is my wish for you to help me invest this fund there in your country. as
soon as the transfer has being made , This is the reason why I decided to
contact you.Please all communications should be through this email address
only for confidential purposes.As soon as I receive your positive response
showing your interest I will put things into action immediately. In the
light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your
ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely.You can call
me with this phone number +233-54626-2969,this is Rev Joseph Adams phone
number who is taking care of us in the camp here in Ghana,because i have no
