Hello friend,
Compliments!
After going through your profile from our foreign trade office of Chambers of Commerce & Industry which was given to me after my official enquiry,I decided to contact you but I did not disclose the intention to anyone because of the delicate nature of the project.I found your profile interesting and decided to contact you directly for an urgent real estate investment and transfer of US$6,200,000.00.
I am presently working as a senior accounts manager with the bank below in United Kingdom.With your co-operation,I am determined to work this project out with you but as at this moment, I am constrained to issue more details about this highly profitable business until I get your response by email.Please take a moment of your very busy schedules today to respond back for more details to my private email address: jfisher@aggies.com
Regards,
Mr.John Fisher
