Gregor Yavlinsky) opposed to the government of Mr. Vladmir Putin, the president thereby leading to the freezing his finances and assets.
After searching through the books of your countrys chambers of commerce and industries here in Russia I am contacting you to assist me to re-profile this fund and equally invest this fund in your country.The total amount of these funds to be re-profiled is forty six million dollars (USD 46,000,000.00) and you will be getting 20% for your assistance.

Mrs. Larisa Sosnitskaya
