board of director of my bank has directed my office to look for the relative

fund. All effort for me and my office to locate the relatives of the

the way it is planned so no cause for alarm. If this offer is acceptable to
you, please revert back to me immediately with your private phone & fax
numbers where you can be easily reached.Or you can send me a fax or call me
