I wish to contact you so that you will indicate your interest as soon
as you receive this message, so that I will proceed and put your name
as the rightful beneficiary of the funds and move the money outside
Nigeria with your name. I intend to part you with 20% of the total sum, for
your assistance while 70% will be my own cut of the deal and the remaining
10% shall be set aside for any expenses that might be incurred in the course
of the transfer. However, whatever that might remain from the 10% shall also
be shared equally (between you and me). Every record concerning these funds
and all the legal contract documents backing the funds will be given by the
Ministries.

Please my good friend, I want you to limit this matter personally to
yourself, whatever your decision might be, all correspondence must be
through my most exlusive e-mail box: utome445@yahoo.fr

This deal is 100% risk free.
