It`s unfortunate am writing to you of this kind but my situation now
made it innevitable,i made a short trip in the UK unfortunate my bag
was stolen from me more especially my credit card and passport was
inside but the good thing is that the embassy said, the are willing to
help me fly without passport,the only thing i need to do now is to pay
my ticket and hotel bill.

To be honest with you,i dont have money with me,i’ve made contact with
my bank but the best they could do was to send me a new card in the
mail which will take 2-4 working days to arrive here.i was thinking of
asking you to lend

me some quick funds that i can give back as soon as i get in,i really
need to be on a last minute flight that leaves in a few hours.

i can furnish you with info on how you will get me the money,You can
reach me via the hotel’s desk phone if you can, the numbers are,
011447034076761 or 011447024093687,Pls reply in this my Yahoo id our
