It was thoughtful of you to ask me. I regret to inform you that I am not interested in your proposal.

There are two problems you have here. One is that this isn't a site for business proposals and the other is that you are from Nigeria asking for people for help. Call me paranoid but how many junk emails have I had from people in Nigeria desperate for my help, or rather bank details.

Dear MACA,

I quite agree with you that some people(nigerians to be specific) might have begged you of money and that does not mean that I want to beg you money.

I am a business man andd a graduate of mechanical engineering with good result. I have been sourcing materials locally when my company was an enterprise . currently It has been incoporated as a limited company because i business proposals i made to shell and totalfina elf. these are multinational and for them to do business with a company reasonably they have confidence with foreign agency arrangement.Your statement that nigerians beg u, maybe the once u came in contact with. that does not mean that all nigerians are like that. I work for my self since i resigned from multinationa companies like cameron- a wellhead company, tractor and equipment-CAT sole dealer in west africa. i am not trying to give u my resume/cv but to prove to u that i have not come to beg. another way of knowing genuie people is if we are doing business and i need any goods i must transfer moner via my bank Gauranty bank plc, nigeria.

thank you for letting me know that cr4 is not for business., but it was just that i was thinking they should be of help because of globalspec issue/cr4.

I also want to tell you that in all the countries of the world we have pockets of bad people and i know for me that I am a child of God and can not do evil to any man despite the colour.

If u want to know about my company maybe on request i will send my registration number so that u can find out from your country via any agent.

thank u and bye

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a racist and hope that this wasn't how you perceived me but I was just making a point that you have a lot of work to do in your situation because of the corrupt people in Nigeria. I know that there are bad people all over the place and believe me I've found alot and worked for a few con men in this country too. Once bitten twice shy. I've had the wool pulled over my eyes before and I would be a fool not to take heed of what I've seen.

I'm not really in a position to help you because my background and plans for the future are very different to your line of work but when I read your post I just had to reply giving my initial feelings. It does sound bad to say this but my belief is that if you are from a country like Nigeria and you have a genuine buisness proposal then you will have to work harder to convince people of that than if you come from a developed nation.

Wish you the best of luck with what you are doing.

Cheers

Dear MACA,

I did understand you. I was trying to explain. Even in Nigeria you need to be extremely careful because I have have been duped. I am sorry if u had a misconception of my reply.

I shall keep trying because my biz is a genuine one and shall remain geniune all the days of my life. I believ God will help me out.

Keep fit.

Thank you.
