> I, on behalf of my other colleagues from different

> We as holders of official positions in various

> foreign contractors by the past Military Government

> Hundred and Sixty Thousand United States Dollars Only)

> not allow us to operate foreign accounts.

> However, we have succeeded in transferring some of

> Million United States Dollars Only) into a foreign 
> account in GENEVA (SWITZERLAND). But 
> unfortunately, the provider of the account has severed

> compensation on remittance of the balance of 
> US$45.560M (Forty-Five Million, Five Hundred and Sixty
> 
> Thousand United States Dollars Only).

> We are therefore seeking your assistance based on the
