by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in
a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment
purpose such as real estate management or hotel management.

your country to re-settle and to secure resident permit in your country.
I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your
effort/input after the successful transfer of this fund into your account
overseas. Thank you for your signify interest to assist me. Anticipating
to hear from you soon.
Thanks and God bless.
