My Dear Friend, I am happy to inform you about my success in getting the inheritance fund transfered under the cooperation of a new partner from Paraguay. Presently I am in Paraguay for investment projects with my own share of the total sum. Meanwhile, I did not forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transfering those funds despite that it failed us some how but at least God has answered my prayers at the end. Now contact my secretary in BENIN, her name is Mrs Diana Dossou, her email (mrs_diana72@yahoo.fr )and ask her to send you the total sum of $800,000.00 USD (EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS) certified bank draft which I raised in your favour for your compensation for all the past efforts and attempts to assist me in this transaction.I appreciated your efforts at that time very much so feel free and get in touch with my secretary and give her your address where to send the draft to you. Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the joy after all the suffering at that time. I am very busy at the moment here in Paraguay because of the investment projects which I and the new partner are having at hand. Finally remember that I had forwarded an instruction to my secretary on your behalf to make sure that you receive that money, so feel free to contact her without any delay so you can receive your compensation. Best regards,Dr.Fabrice Dohou
