Dear, I am optimistic to request for your consent in a mutual international business relationship between you and i. My name is Paul Patterson, I got your contact from the web while searching for investment opportunity. I am a civil servant who realized $24.5 million Through the sale of our allocated oil quota in OPEC from commission payouts throught my tenure as the Head of Delegation to the World Bank in West Africa. I want you to assist me in investing this fund in real estate and commercial properties or any other profitable venture you are familiar with since as a civil servant I cannot have such funds and the code of conduct bureau forbids me to acquire such amount of money. Upon your consent to this request i will send my proposal and we will discuss in details. Thank you for giving me your time, am hoping for a friendly response. Regards, Paul Patterson.
