some charges to pay to the security company which the answer is yes because=
my father made some deposit but it has expired and we must pay the fee bef=
ore the box can be release to us, But that should not be problem we can see=
to it when you get in contact with the security company maybe they will co=
llect their fee after the delivery of the box to your country.

for the release and the shipment of the box to you in your country as i wi=
ll be coming over to start a new life in your country and also complete my =
education. When you receive the box you can open it and deposit the money i=

Dear Karine,
I was very surprised this morning when you called me, and I guess that it w=
as difficult to understand each other because of the delay of the voice dur=
ing the call. I guess that it is ok for you too to keep in touch by e-mail,=
we'll have planty of time to talk when you'll come to my country :)
Now, I'd like to ask you some questions that I find them difficult to find =
the answer reading the documents you sent me. For example, do I have to pay=
something to this security company, do I have to give you information or i=
nstructions for payment to my receiving bank, my bank account, my SWIFT cod=
e (I don't really know what does it mean) and my IBAN number (this, too:) )=
.. These are my unanswered questions because I really can't afford to pay so=
mething to this security company, unless you send me funds to do that to my=
account, so I could do that. I don't know how clear I was explaining this =
to you, but I guess you'll understand me, and you'll explain to me what sho=
uld I do. I think that it will be easy for both of us to write me what to d=
o, step by step. As I read from your previous mail, I think that my next st=
ep into this whole situation is to contact the security company and the dir=
ector of this security company, by sending them an e-mail, but I'd
like you to tell me what to write and what to do after that. I'm a little =
bit of confused, maybe because of my bad english (it's bad, isn't it), so t=
ry to explain me what's my next move little more simplificated :)
About myself... I can tell you that I'm not married, I live alone and I'm w=
orking as a technical documentator in a museum. I'll send you my pictures a=
fter you answer me to this e-mail, because I don't have pictures of me at t=
his computer, so I'll take some pictures and send it to you in my next mail=
..
As time goes by, I feel your honesty into all of this, and I hope that toge=
ther we'll solve all of your problems, and secure you a better life, far aw=
ay from all of your problems.
I'm waiting for your answer as soon as you can,
