Dear Friend, My name is,mark elvis, I am the regional manager of the coopec bank abidjan, ivore coast, platu branch in the western region of ivore coast. I got your information on a recent bank conference with other West African countries held in Lome the capital of Togo in West Africa. I am 42years old married with two lovely kids. I am a man of peace and I don't want problems only hope you can assist me. If you don't want this proposal, I can forget ever contacted you. I have packaged a financial transaction that will benefit you and I. As the regional manager of the Barclays bank it is my duty to send in a financial report to my head office in the capital city at the end of each business year. On the course of the last year 2006 business report, I discovered that my branch in which I am the branch manager made US($16,500.000)which my head office are not aware of and will never be aware of. I have placed this funds on what we call escrow call account with no beneficiary.
