I managed to enter london on assylum. but because of the terrorist acts here now, it is spoiling all my plans of stablizing here after my assylum case is considered. As a matter of fact I came out with a huge of Money which I would like it to be transfered out of london to enable me relocate immediately after my case here.
Please I would like to transact with you if you will promise me of being trustworthy. Please I will not like to be disasppointed as this is the only hope of survival.
Actually I will not proceed with all the details until I have heard from you. The amount is 16.8 million usd dollar. Its my money. Please dont ask me how I got it as that may not be meaningful now. If you accept and promise that you will not disappoint me if the money is sent to you then please reply immediately so that we can talk of your percentage and etc.
Thanks.
