    Dear girl,

    While going through the pages of myspace, I got your e-mail address because of an urgent pressing matter.

For security reasons I would only deal with whom am sure is ready and knows how to do offshore business which is the reason I contacted you. Please acknowledge receipt and preferably interest in this and I will give you the full details for your assistance.
