Dear Mr Cort Urnerder,
I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting those funds transferred under the Co-operation of a new partner from Paraguay.
Presently I am in Paraguay for investment projects with my own share of the total sum. Meanwhile, i didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring those funds despite that it failed us some how. I know you might not remember me, but i never forget a favour done to me.
However, i want you to contact my attorney, his name is Barrister John Kingsly via Email: (barr.John_k@yahoo.fr) or his phone number 00229 95450371. ask him to send you a cheque of the total sum of $80.000 .00USD (Eighty thousend United states dollars) which i kept for your compensation for all the past efforts and attempts to assist me in this matter.
I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So feel free and get in touched with my ttorney Barrister John Kingsly and instruct him on how to send the money to you.
Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the joy after all the troubles at that time. Meanwhile, Iam very busy here because of the investment projects which myself and my new partner are handling at present.
Finally, remember that I have already instructed my attorney to make the payment to you as soon as you contact him.So feel free to get in touch with Barrister John Kingsly , he will send the amount to you without any delay.
