I am Mr. Young Park .I am an exporter, but due to the much of governmental restrictions on individual trade and also the high rate of controls on incoming and out going funds in the Chinese environment, I am soliciting the establishment of a business relationship with you such that my customers could be making payments through you and you will be remitting same to me via a means will not disclose the money as being proceeds of exports which exceed approved export quota. I have customers to the tune of millions USD .I will be very glad if you can be my representative in your country and earn 10% of every payment made through you to me. I await your readiness to proceed with instructing some of my customers who are almost ready to send some payments. I know it sounds somehow approaching you on the internet, considering the fact that some people have abused the internet but it is still the fastest means of contact. Do know that you do not have to invest a cent in this business proposition b
ut rather remain honest and keep earning 10% of every payment that comes through you to me.
Yours Faithfully,
Young Park
