As so many others, I do wish there was a way to sue these companies offering fake jobs that do not exist.

Before the death of my father on January 16th 2008 in a private hospital in Bulgaria .

He secretly called me on his bed side and told me that he has the some very good amount of funds he deposited in his fixed escrow account in one of the leading offshore banks in Europe that he used my name as his only daughter for the next of Kin in depositing of the fund. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth he has acquired, that was why he was poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose such as real estate management or hotel management.
