Please help me.
I know that it may sound strange to receive an email from someone you do not know at all, but I am desperate to save my life and future that is the reason I took this bold step, made some research and got your contact. I have confidence that this is the right step toward the right direction.
 
My name is Rose Johnson and I am from Ivory Coast a country in West Africa . My mother died of cancer just after my birth and I have been with my father who refuses to marry a second wife all through.
 
Most unfortunately for me, my father just died in a car accident on his way to one of his TIMBER exploitation sites.  After the accident, he was recovered dead and the burial ceremony was done properly.
 
My main problem now is that my father’s relatives want me to marry their uncle in order to secure my family wealth. They said that if I marry to an outsider, our family wealth will be taken to another people and that they will not accept. They said it is their right to preserve their family wealth and lineage. I refused because it is ridiculous for them to compel me to marry an old man of 71 years; a man old enough to be my ground father just to preserve the family wealth. Although I am a young girl of only 19 years old, I believe I have the right to choose my own husband for myself. My refusal to their plan was seen as insult so they threatened to deal with me without pity. They said it is better that I do not live than to have the family wealth given to an outsider.
 
Last month, they sent some hired assassins to kill me in our family house but as God will have it, I manage to escape that death and I ran away from our family house to a place that I am hiding presently to secure my life. I will not return back to that house again else I would be dead. This issue is serious.
 
Fortunately for me, my father made a deposit of USD$ 9 000 000.00 nine million dollars with my name in a bank here that their family members are not aware of.  During the deposit, my father had agreement with the bank that the money will not be given directly to me until I’m 26 years of age. Or if I wish to receive the money before my 26 years old, then, I must appoint a foreign guardian overseas who shall stand in my stead and receive the money in his/her bank account. Considering that fact that I am only 19 now and the present situation with my relatives, I humbly request that you stand as my foreign guardian so that the bank will release and transfer the money to you. I will relocate to meet with you once the money is transferred to you so I can start a new life there.
 
Please come to my rescue immediately and God will reward you. I am ready to compensate you with 20% of the total amount and if you like, we can also go into partnership with my money.
 
I thank you for your time to read this mail and I wait to hear from you and until then, God richly bless you.
 
Rose Johnson

说能告诉我是怎么回事。。。。

MS都是小说的样子。

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

      在豆瓣上看到这本书在首页上挂了很久，总免不了要点进去看看看的欲望。结果里面总是在讨论有关"文艺女青年"的事。我无心加入豆瓣里关于"文艺女青年"的任何讨论，但是出于对热门事物的"插一腿"心理，也是室女理科生在文艺方面的自卑心理，我就在joyo上订了这本《悲观主义的花朵》午夜闲来看。

      当我在半夜三更宿舍里的人都睡着的情况下看完这本小说时，感想蛮多的。首先，这本书里经常提及很多文艺方面的书籍和电影足以使这本书成为"文艺女青年使用指南 "，像王尔德之类。其次，作者叙述的故事（其间插了一些小巧的其他人的故事），是那种很简单的情节，就是陶然爱上一个比她大20岁的男人陈天这种可以概括为"忘年恋"的故事。其实也不算忘年，也就20岁。但重点在于人物心理的起伏以及主人公的思维方式和娓娓道来的一些事关人生、爱情、生活的理念和信念。还有就是小说的题目啊——《悲观主义的花朵》，"悲观"二字怎么体现是一大看点。陶然是我熟悉的那种人，聪明在小事，糊涂在大事。她是一个明白人，她知道和陈天这种老但是热爱的男人相恋必然是一出悲剧。她深谙此理，因此成了一个彻头彻尾的悲观主义者。她不敢面对真爱和尴尬，但却也对一个突然而至的好像是意料之中的结局错愕不已。结局已定，我们只能袖手旁观吗？这样一个悲观主义者又怎能收获甜美的爱情呢？如果我们不能表达，如果我们不能面对自己真实的想法，得到的结局当然是悲剧的。、

      但是，为什么我明明知道是悲观主义毁了这一切，却人感觉这花朵仍凄美动人呢？

      说到这里，突然发现这小说的主题还是给人积极的启示的。
