I promise you that everything will work out well once you contact the Security Company on my behalf as my foregn partner, this is because it is very legitimate transfer and transparent as i told you that my father was a weathy business man before he meet his sudeen death. I have all the legal documents to back up this transfer and i will send it to you when needed.
Actually, I am really facing a difficult moment here in Cote D'Ivoire as my life has not been the same since the death of my Father . I received your reply indicating that you have accepted to help me with all honesty and I am confidence trusting that this money will be safe with you because it is the only remaining asset I have left to rediscover myself and I will want you to assure me on it's safety as soon as the Fund Box is transferred to you. I do not have any problem with your percentage i am ready to over you 20% of the money, my utmost concern is to make sure that this fund Box is transfer to you in your country as soon as possible.
This Fund Box will be transferred to you by the Security Company, but you will be expected to hold negotiation for the release and transfer of this Deposit in the capacity as my foreign partner. I will give you the deposit transfer code number and particulars which you might need to help you in your negotiation with the Security Company.You will also advise me on the best area where I can invest this money in your country and also help me to process the documents needed for immigration to your country where I intend to invest this money and proceed to complete my education which I was forced to abandon since my father died.
Please dear if there is any thing you may need to know concerning this deposite please do ask me, I am ready to sign any guarantee with you to cover your involvement in this transaction and also assure you that this money came from a clean source as my late father was a very wealthy business tycon who was into importation before his death.
I am sending you my picture and I also wait for your photo and telephone number as well. I will send you the Security Company contact details when next i hear from you so you could get in touch with them and open a negotiation on how the transfer of the Deposit will be done to you in your country.
