Subject: YOUR RESPONSE WILL BE NEEDED URGENTLY
Hello,
I am Steve Carr from Trinity Gas Company London and i am mailing in respect of a client of mine who does business with foreigners but he is so busy to attend to all as regarding remittance of payment.
The real details is this, His clients would want to pay money to him but some times its difficult so he needs a representative in the U.S.A and CANADA who can be trust worthy to provide his/her account details where his client can pay his money into. You will have 10% of every money that will be paid into your account and informations will be sent to you after any payment has been done to your account,instructions will be passed across to you on how to pay the balance of the funds after deducting your 10%.
Get back to me as soon as posible if you are interested.
Steve Carr
