for a reliable and trust worthy foriegn partner abroad,who will help us
recieve some funds which we have in cash totalling US$20M(TWENTY MILLION

a good number of persons secretly benefitted from this deals,including from
the presidency,but he was betrayed&now been used as a SCAPE GOAT.
However,I have managed to push the money(US$20M) abroad and it is presently
in the custody of a private Finance/Security Company in Europe,which requires
to be transferred URGENTLY for safe keeping before it is been discovered
and frozen,considering the nature at which the money came about,because
the continued existences and survival of my family solely depends on this
money:THIS IS WHY I NEED YOUR HELP NOW!!!
I hope you are trust worthy enough to help me fascilitate this transfer???
or am I being STUPID? Well I absolutely guess not!because my family cannot
afford to face another sad,shameful and sorrowful effect of betrayal again
this time PLEASE!!!
Nevertheless,when you will recieve this money.The total sum will be shared
as follows: 25% FOR YOU:My family takes 70%:then the remaining 5% will be
used for the reimbursement of all the unfore-seen expenses we may incure
during your assistance e.g transportation,hotels or whatever e.t.c.Nobody
has to be greedy please,this transaction is not a JOKE,but rather REAL.
Note,there is neither any risk involved,its RISK FREE: so be rest assurred
that this transaction for the fund will be successful&be recieved by YOU
upon"PROPER APPLICATIONS" with full instructions FROM ME on how to go about
it all,with all the neccessary,GENUINE DOCUMENTS & information from me without
any FEAR!!!
Indeed,if you are interested in this business,which i feel you could
be my only/last hope,please urgently contact me and Please endeavour
to keep this business transaction strictly confidential,for security reasons.....i
will be grateful if/when you do!!!
I am interested in investing the 65% into any legitimate&lucrative business
with you in your country after it is been transfferred e.g Estate management
or Hotel management,can you please advise me?since its your country,if its
better there or try to negotiate for me on any investment opportunities!!!
