Good day ,
This message might meet you in utmost surprise however
it's just my urgent need for a reliable foreign
partner that made me contact you for this transaction.
I am a banker by profession from Burkina Faso and
currently holding the post of Accounts and Auditing
Manager in our bank .
I have the opportunity of transferring 7.8 million USD
abandoned by a deceased customer who died along with
his wife in a sucide bomb attack while on holidays in
Egypt.
Hence, I am inviting you for a business deal where
this money can be shared between us 60/40 if you agree
to my business proposal. If you are interested in
being part of this transaction , kindly reach on my
private and confidential email address :
