Ask him to send to you the total sum of ($1.8 Million) One Million Eight hundred Thousand United States Dollars in an international Certified bank draft which I kept for your compensation, or you can discuss with him on how best to have send the money across to you. Forward my mail to him for confirmation and do send him with this information below for identifications and confirmations.
