Khodorkovsky the richest man in Russia and owner of the following

Chairman
CEO: Menatep SBP Bank (A well reputable financial institution with its

The fund (US$45M) in question was approved by the Government of Russia
for
payment of various YUKOS OIL contractors/suppliers to prevent them from
loosing the money they invested in the numerous contracts they executed
for
the above firm. The Government had already concluded plans to frozen
all
the accounts in Mikhail Khodorkovsky's name both corporate and personal
before I connived with the Accountant General of YUKOS OIL (who is also
my
partner in this transaction) to raise a memo stating that YUKOS OIL owe
contractors the above amount which was finally approved for payment
after
some deliberations. Actually, we have paid all our contractors both
local
and foreign because they agitated for their payment when they had that
my
boss was arrested.
YOUR ROLE:
I will present you / your company as the contractors we owe so that you
can
stand as the beneficiary of the above quoted sum or PART of the fund
according to your financial strength or the strength of your company. I
will arrange for the documentation that the payee bank will need to
transfer the sum to you. I have decided to use this sum to relocate to
either American or any business Oriented part of Asia and never to be
connected to any of Mikhail Khodorkovsky conglomerates. The transaction
has
to be concluded before as soon as possible. You will be rewarded with
10%
of the total sum for your partnership. Can you be my partner on this?
As soon as I get your willingness to comply I will give you more
details.
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Khoren Pnjoyan,
