Kindly accept my apology for sending my mail to you. I am a

killed him. You can verify this from some of the
international newspapers posted in the web sites below:

Before my husband was killed, he moved out the sum of $21.5
million through a diplomatic means, and deposited it with a
Security Company Abroad. And this money was meant for
importation of agricultural machinery.

All that is needed is for my lawyer to instruct the company
to transfer the funds to your account, I will remunerate
you with 20% at the end, but most of all is that I solicit
your trust and honesty in this transaction. I have been
confined only to our country home and all my calls are
monitored, so I will advise you to contact my private
