When I receive a positive response and after proper discussion with you,I will furnish you all relevant information that will facilitate the release of the Funds to you. An Application will have to be filed to the Bank for processing of the release of the Funds into your nominated Bank account.
I wait to hear from you.Barr. PETER COLE.YOU SHOULD CALL ME ON TELEPHONE NO:+44-762-417-2644 UPON THE RECIEPT OF THIS MAIL FOR FURTHER DISCUSSION.
