In fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this company as a government security worker ,we are not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer because I work in this security companyThis is the actual reason why it will require a trusted party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin and beneficiary to the security company and also present a foreign account or Address where he will need the money to be re-transferred or delivered into on his request as it may be after due verification and clarification by the correspondent branch of the company May I at this point emphasize that this transaction is 100% risk free as I have made arrangements for a successful arrangement as an insider of the fiance company before contacting you. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of the total sum as gratification, while 10% will be set aside to take care of expenses that may arise during the time of fund transfer and also telephone bills, while 60% will be for me and my partners. Please, you have been adviced to keep this a Top secret as we are still in service of this company and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.As you know that our company must not know that we are connected with you in this transaction. I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this company until you confirm and claim the money in your account or transfer the money through diplomatic means and ask me to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment, either in your country or any country you advice us to invest in.
