I have just sent you three e mails copying letters I have received from Miss Kate Henshaw of the Ivory Coast.
This smells like a scam to me, but she has not asked for letterheads or money. She has asked for my bank information to transfer money to the account. What risks do I run if she has my account number?
Is this a scam?

Dearest one Russ,
Thanks for your mail and your effort to assist me in this transaction,well I received your mail and I thought over it before responding to you because what we need in this This transaction is trust and nothing more as you know this is my only hope in life. Thanks for your picture i now kown that you are God sent to me.
My late father use to say this adage that HONESTY IS THE KEY TO HAPPINESS.
I keep sending prayers for I know that in God all things are possible and I ask for answers to these challenges. I also send my loving heart to you and hold you in the Divine Light of Christ, and know that I will be seeing you in the nearest future.
How are you together with all your concerns over there? .I hope all is well to the glory of God by His sovereignty. It is so thriling and exciting reading from you and your willingness to help me out of this my situation. I have seen your plight in this transaction and understood you
accordingly.Upon hearing from you,I am giving you the contact of the Bank without hesitation nor regret for you to contact them and I will be willing to send to you the lodgement receipt and the fund origin when the needs be.
I know you will not dispose this trust that I have bestowed on you.I have met with the Bank Director requesting clarity on our intention and he hesitated to give me the comprehensive details ,saying that it is not their culture of service, rather the proceedure will unfold itself as we proceed in making the
transfer.I was made to understand that they have departmental heads. Furthermore he requested that an Application should be submitted by us. I am doing all that can make this happen and have been in consistent communication with them.
Since I have no experience in these matters I am advicing you to contact the bank to advise us, it will be most helpful if you will be able to communicate with a specific individual the International Remittance Director that is in charge of this matter.
