* for stories of my father's alleged involvement in Fraud and other forms
of corruption in Kenya.This image has also not helped matters too My Family
has Funds deposited in a bank in Aboard ,totalling $16.3 Million USDollars
known only to me and my Dad but due to my present state and also the
happenings around regarding lifted funds I ask you to allow me to have these
Funds moved into your Country and account ,for the sole purpose of investing
the Funds and also if possible start a life there,I am almost paranoid with
having to be careful about the things I do so as not to attract unwanted
Police attention. the bank in which the aforementioned Funds is deposited
believe that my dad will fullfit the funds since he can no longer travel out
ever since the account has been domant,this funds are the only funds not
known to the kenya government the Funds are safe from the general public and
any probed that might be instituted by the Government of Kenya.*
*I would be forever grateful to you if I can have you go along with me in
this,I solicit for your undivided aid,I am committed to this project
fervently and would also expect the same from you if you eventually decide
to assist me.I could go on and on but suffice it is to stop here for now and
hopefully look forward to a candid reply from you.*
*Sincere Regards,
Mr Chris O. Murungaru Jr.
