John Smith is not happy with Cammy, Nicolae, and Roscoe.

Quote:

I came to you to Invest my money in a viable business venture in your country, but you did not welcome me. There are many people out there looking for this opportunity but they did not see it. I do not want to continue the business with you any longer, Please I need a power of Attorney from you to look for another party that will work with me to take this business to conclusion. Give me power of Attorney to look for another partner,
I want to thank you for the damaged caused to me, but there is no problem at all, just give me a power of Attorney that you are no longer interested in concluding the business with me, that you are giving me a power of Attorney to get another partner that will conclude the business with me. I need it very urgently.
Waiting for the Power of Attorney.

Roscoe responded:

I am a reasonable man. But when it comes to Cammy, I am not ready to cut corners and give trust without reason. I will protect her, come what may.
Consider this. You claim to have made tens of millions of dollars in business, yet you need and expect a foreigner - a young woman of limited intelligence and with no business experience - to act as your agent in moving money from your country, on the grounds that you are a civil servant and cannot operate a foreign account. Can this be credited? No, because nothing stops you from resigning your position to continue in your own interests without breaking the law.

That would seem logical to anyone but a Lad (emphasis added):

I am also a reasonable and a family man at my age, I know what i want.
I contacted you for this business transaction and you introduce to me Camille to handle the affairs of this transaction, you knowing fully that she is a young girl of limited intelligence and with no business experience and you introduce her to me? OK, I also have protected Camille interest and the interest of this transaction. because she told me that she has no knowledge of business that she is a model.
then i told her to get a financial consultants that we will work together to look into the MOU. when we finish the transfer into her account, we will come along with our own financial consultant for both parties to look into the MOU then come to a conclusion before signing it into implementation. that was our arrangement.
I have 2 years more to retired from active service, if i resign my self, all the years spent in active service will be a west, i will lose all the pension benefits and gratuity that i will deserve.
Camille interest is well protected. If you are not ready to comply for the success conclusion of this transaction, Please give me a power of Attorney to look for another partner for the transfer and onward investment of the fund as plane.

I made a phone call as Roscoe, which didn't record, so here's the email instead:

Quote:

I repeat what I said to you; to put your pension entitlements ahead of $50 million is sheer lunacy and I just don't get it. It's not as if you have any patriotic sense of duty keeping you in the job.
When I directed you to Cammy, it was on the basis that she was simply to receive your money and safeguard it pending your arrival in Australia. You moved the goalposts when you promoted her to investment manager and told her to pay fees that you should be paying.
As I said before, I look after me and mine, and that doesn't include you unless I conjure it does.

(I know that Roscoe is not Mal, but I couldn't resist a Firefly/Serenity reference)

I've always found it amusing when banker lads - especially the ones who refer to themselves as "lowly clerks" - beg me not to reveal their emails as they will lose their jobs. You're getting 65 million dollars and are afraid of losing some crummy job?
