THIS IS THE MORE REASON WHY WE NEEDED YOUR ASSISTANCE TO PROVIDE AN ACCOUNT THAT CAN SUSTAIN THIS FUND FOR SAFE KEEPING AND OUR FUTURE INVESTMENT WITH YOUR COMPREHENSIVE ADVICE, ASSISTANCE AND PARTNERSHIP IN YOUR COUNTRY.
TWO OPTIONS FOR YOU, FIRSTLY, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO HAVE CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF THE MONEY FOR NOMINATING YOUR ACCOUNT FOR THIS TRANSACTION, OR YOU CAN GO INTO PARTNERSHIP WITH ME FOR THE PROPER PROFITABLE INVESTMENT OF THE MONEY IN YOUR COUNTRY. IF YOU DO NOT PREFER A PARTNERSHIP, 10% WILL BE FOR ANY EXPENSES IN CURE IN THE COURSE OF THIS TRANSFER, I AM WILLING TO GIVE YOU 30% OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT, WHILE THE REMAINING 60% WILL BE FOR MY INVESTMENT IN YOUR COUNTRY.
