Hello,

Apologies if I sound a touch insecure but may you be so kind as to prove your authority for this beforehand?

Several months ago I had remitted some cash to someone who informed me of a fund nearly identical as yours. She has still not responded my last 14 messages and this makes me nervous about you.

I have had a difficult day so please just inform me in simple words.

Mr. Amott Nagelst


PS. You should be aware that the phone number you wrote was unobtainable. Please provide a workable number.
