As soon as we hear from you,we shall giveyou more details about the transaction and the bank informations werethe funds are deposited.
Now, on one occassion when i visited the banktosee if i can claim some money for medical treatment of my sister ,Iwas denied access to withdraw from the money by the bank, in responsethey told me that my father entered an agreement with the bank that the money will not be withdrawn or tampered with until it gets to his foreign partners account abroad. With regards to this, i was shown the agreement entered between my father and the bank where i confirmed it and in ddidtion it was clearly stated that i the next of kin or the depositor who is my father will be the one to appoint the account to where the money will be transfered, since my dad is dead i will be the one to do just that .This has compel me to contact you in this regards as the long awaited beneficiary of the fund in the bank by forwarding your viable and legitmate bank account details which i willsubmit to the bank as my late father's foreign partner and theco-beneficiary

We shall be offering you 20% of the totalsum for your assistance,as you will also help us in investing this fund in your country with a lawyer who will also draft an aggreement in yourcountry between us.
