Sir,
My name is BARR. ANDREW MOSES; a personal attorney to a former minister in
DRC.[DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO]
the former Minister, who lodged some fund cash with a security company {for
safekeeping}.
I received instruction from him to look for a reliable foreign
partner/investor who can receive and manage the fund for him until his
ordeal with the Government is over, currently his is under detention and
probe, his offence is political motivated {he is aspiring for the office of
the president come next election} However the money originated from
gratification/under the counter sales of copper and diamond, in his
ministry, DRC has the largest deposit of copper and diamond in the world.
The amount is $10,000,000.00 USD.
The need to move the money out from Europe shores arise from recent letter
sent to E.U Government by DRC Authority requesting her assistance to trace
all money lodged in her bank/Security Companies also the ministers family
recently arrived Mozambique for safety.
Kindly sort for an honest person/investor who will help to invest the fund
and you will be adequately rewarded for assisting in this project
all-urgent!
Regards.
ANDREW MOSES
