Good Day my Dear,
It's has been long I heard from you. Well, I just want to use this medium to
thank you very much for your earlier assistance to help me in receiving the
funds,without any positive out come.I am obliged to inform you that I have
succeeded in receiving the funds with the help of a new partner from
Paraguay.Everything was perfectly done because we strike a deal with one of
the lady accountant who works with the federal Ministry of Finance (FMF) and
she rendered a tremendous help to us.My new partner initiated this idea and
everything worked out successfully.In appreciation of your earlier
assistance to me in receiving the Funds.
I have decided to compensate you with the sum of $2.5 million United States
Dollars in Cashier cheque (two point five United States Dollars).This is
from my own share. I did this simply to show you that it is good to do good
things to the right people always. Presently, I am in Paraguay for
investment project with my own share under the advice of my
partner.Meanwhile, I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist
me in transferring those fund despite that it failed us somehow. I will be
sending you e-mail from time to time to know if you have received your share
or not.Now contact my personal assistant in Benin Mr Hubert Tony, his e-mail
address is (huberttoni@yahoo.fr)
Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the
joy together after all the suffering at that time. In the moment, I am very
busy here in Paraguay because of the investment projects, which the new
partner and I are having at hand so fill free to get in touch with young
Hubert to send the cheque to you without any delay.
Best Regards,
Hon.Smith Giff.
