st concluded presidential elections and he has won, but we are from different mother and we are not in good terms for now
Now the deal is simply befor the death of my father last month the total sum of us$18,000.000 was transported to Accra Ghana our neighboring state in the west of Togo by air to a shipping company based in Accra Ghana ( Trans- world Shipping ) and this was a gratification gift to my father from a Chinese company that was awarded a multi billion contract to build the new Togo international airport, now I have a problem the boxes which contain this money was not certified as belonging to my father is was registered as boxes on transit with important document not cash so as to hide any trace of this, and where for a company based in Sweden by the name of Swedish Wooden House, and I need you to assist me in claiming these boxes as the Director of Swedish Wooden House , I can not be involved due to the situation in my country if this ever gets out it would be an internationnal scandal and my brother will be happy to have me in jail. I hope you understand
There are no risks, I was lucky to get hold of all the relevant document after the death of our father and no one knows not even my own mother about this. all i have to do is i will furnish you with all the details on the shipment and papers from the shipping company as having received these boxes then you would now request to change the delivery of the boxes to your country and not to Sweden as was the initial instructions on the boxes trans shipment order, can you receive this boxes without haveng problem in your country lucky for us the boxes where tagged diplomatic cargo so it would not be inspected by your country customs. Also let me know if you can transfer this money from your bank to my bank account in Ghana, it would be like you are a friend of mine that is willing some money to a friend. I hope i can trust you.
