Subject: My Dear friend ,
My Dear friend ,
Longest time , I hope all is well together with your family ,if so glory be
to God almighty.Well, Sorry to hear this news and understand that the fault
is not from me .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. Mean while , I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to
assist me in transferring this funds despite that it failed us some how. Now
contact my secretary George Peters In Benin,on Emai:
georgepeter11@argentina.com,
Ask him to send you the draft i left for you in his care, I have raised and
signed an International Cashier's Bank Draft, to the sum ofUSD$950,000.00
(NINE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) only in your name as
your own COMPENSATION for your dedication, humanity and contribution, as it
were.
I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So feel free and get in
touch with mysecretary and instruct him where to send the cheque as you know
it was issued in a certified bank draft cheque which you can cash in any
bank approved or owned by government of any country.
Please do let me know immediately you cash the money so that we can share
the joy together after all the suffering at that time. Right now, I am very
busy here because of the investment projects which me and the new partner
are having at hand.
Finally, remember that I have forwarded instruction to the secretary on your
behalf to send the draft / cheque to you immediately,so feel free to get in
touch with George, he will send the draft immediately to you without any
delay.its as a token from my heart.
Thank you and congratulations as God has done it.
Best Regards,
DR KINSEH KINGSLEY
