Subject: ON A BUSINESS TRIP TO YOUR COUNTRY
Dear Sir,
I am arranging to come over to your country with some large sum of money for
an investment. I will be flying in few days.However, I do not know any
investor in your country who I may trust to handle the business for me as I
am a foreigner.
Secondly, I am afraid of bringing in a large amount of money to your
country. Could you please indicate your interest to work with me for this
purpose? I will be sending you my flight schedule as soon as I confirm my
ticket.
Although, I am in need of your response to this arrangement to enable me
find out the situation there in your country regarding the limit amount
someone can bring into the country without any question.
Please get back to me ASAP.
Regards,
Prince Hagan.
