lovely kids. I have packaged a transaction that will benefit you and me as
the branch manager of the International Commercial bank, it is my duty to

end of each year business. On the course of last years 2005 business report,
I discovered that my branch in which I am the manager made four million five
hundred and fifty thousand united state dollars which my head office are not
aware of and will never be aware of it.
I have deposited this funds on what we call (Escrow) call account with no
