Dear Friend,

Khodorkovsky, owner of Yukos oil in Russia who has been in detention since
October 2003 and was jailed on may 16th 2005 for financing political parties
(the union of right forces, led by Boris nemtsov, and yabloko, a
liberal/social democratic party led by Gregor yavlinsky) which are Opposed
to the government of Mr.Vladmir Putin, the president thereby leading to the
freezing of his finances and assets.
I have the documents of a large amount of funds that he gave to me before
his arrest and trial and I am contacting you to assist me to re-profile the
funds and equally invest it on his behalf in your country.The total amount
of funds to be re-profiled is Twenty One Million Dollars (USD$21,000,000.00)
and you will be paid 18% for your management services.
As soon as I receive your acceptance, I will send you the necessary details
