As soon as you confirm your interest and co-operation I will give you the guide lines on how you can transact with the bank for the approval of the funds to your A/C. As soon as everything as been put in place for the transfer I will apply for an annual leave to obtain a visa to travel to your country for my share of the funds and the sharing of the funds is 60% for me, 35% for you and the remaining 5% will be for expenses incurred during the transaction.
As soon as the transaction is over I will secretly destroy all documents that will lead to the trace of this transfer and go back to my country Because i have worked all my life in European.
