Dear Friend ,
I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting those funds transferred
under the cooperation of a new partner from Japan. Presently i'm in Japan
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.
Now contact my secretary,his name is Mr.Young martins on his E-mail address:
(young_martins01@yahoo.fr) ,his phone number is +00229-927066) ask him
to send you the total ($800.000.00) 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 secretary Mr.Young martins and instruct him where to send the amount
to you.
Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the
joy after all the sufferness at that time. in the moment, i am very busy
here because of the investment projects which me and the new partner are
having at hand.So,you have to contact my secretary as soon as possible and
ask him to send you the check without any delay as I have instructed him
to do when you ask for it.
