Dear Friend,

THIS MONEY EMANATE AFTER MY BANK WAS BURNT DOWN FEW WEEKS AGO. A LOT OF LOSES WERE IN CURED BOTH IN CASH AND DOCUMENTATIONS. BEFORE THE FIRE INCIDENCE, WE HAD IN CASH A FOREIGN EXCHANGE TO TURN OF NINE MILLION UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DOLLARS.
AFTER THE FIRE ACCIDENT, THE BOARD OF THE BANK SUMMONED ME TO ACCOUNT FOR DAMAGES. I DECLARED THAT THE FOREIGN EXCHANGE WAS COMPLETELY BURNT. BUT THE TRUTH IS THAT THE MONEY IS SAFE IN MY PERSONAL CUSTODY.

SIXTY FIVE PERCENT FOR ME AND FIVE PERCENT SHALL BE USED TO RE-INBURES EXPENSES WE MIGHT INCURE DURING THE TRANSACTION.
YOU SHALL BE ENTITTLED FOR AN ANNUAL FOURTY PERCENT OF THE MONEY AFTER TAX RETURNS FOR THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF MANAGING MY SHARE OF THE DEAL IN GOOD BUSINESS.
