My name is Ola Matthews a partner/Member with AGRIC-PRO GH LTD, We are contractors with the {GHANA COCOA BOARD ]. Besides being a contractor, my company is also involved with exportation of Cocoa and also known with branches in some strategic locations in my country. Through a contact of mine With the Cocoa Board ,I did execute a contract here in Ghana two years ago and the contract which amounted to the sum of USD 22.5 Million, which was paid in my account with an investment company here in Ghana. Due to the last problem with the Cocoa Smugglers who were caught smuggling cocoa with my connections through Ivory coast- Ghana borders for sale to Cocoa Merchants, I am being probed by my company {Agric-PRO GH LTD } for issues of funds and illegal business transaction, and in order to move from the prying eyes of my co-partners .i now need a foreign company/partner to help me in the transfer of this funds.It is my belief that some of my partners who are aware of this funds are doing all they can to divert this funds to their own account if the probing panel finds me guilty . The company is aware of the USD3.5M of the first contract payment{part payment} Which is the only one accounted for.The CEO of the Investment Company who happens to be a friend of mine is willing to help me release the balance sum of nineteen million($19,000,000.00) USD to any offshore account provided by me before the end of this month . I will be willing to invest this amount into your project and become a partner Additionally ,I am willing to part with 20% of the 19 million USD to your company if and only you will assist me in transferring this sum into your designated account offshore. The necessary papers regarding the contract and the letter of offer will be faxed or emailed to you ,and in return, we also will require your acceptance letter before we can go ahead with this project. REMEMBER THAT THIS TRANSACTION REQUIRES ABSOLUTE SECRECY AND CONFIDENTIALITY FOR A SMOOTH COMPLETION. I look forward to your response. Regards. Ola Matthews.
