Subject: Re: Visa for UK, USA and CANADA:
Dear Sir,
I am Mr. Steve Martins, the managing director Cway Travels Limited. We
process urgent visas for UK, CANADA and USA. We offer this service to people
who are interested and ready to pay for the costs. The three mentioned visas
takes us only 14 working days to be ready due to the solid contacts we have
in UK, CANADA and USA Embassies and there is no interview involved. We have
never disappointed any of our Chinese clients since we have been in this
business.
We want you to become one of our agents in your country by providing
candidates to us for visa. We have had more than 7 years of experience in
this visa business, personal service is our main basis of success and our
motto is customer's satisfaction at whatever cost. We assure you that, under
our care, your clients will have an unforgettable and enjoyable trip to the
above-mentioned countries.
I will give you more information about the visa process and the cost as soon
as I hear from you. I look forward to starting a new business with you very
soon. Please do send your reply to my e-mail addresses:
stevemartins@cwaytravels.net
Yours Faithfully,
Mr. Steve Martins.
