Subject: RE: URGENT CLARIFICATION REQUIRED
Attn:Beneficiary,
Following the present unrest in President-elect Donald Trump administration.
The president and the Republican-controlled Congress in alliance with the
united nations compensation program act for 2016/2017 has ordered the committee
secretariat to move all foreign payment files to the commission's headquarter in
Dushanbe Tajikistan.
As a result to this development and after a proper examination of research,
the committee has find you qualified for (Pay for Performance). We have hear
by been instructed to pay you the sum of $1,500,000.00 (One Million Five
Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only)
The Presidency is taking absolute control of the payment system to avoid
involvement of unpatriotic civil servant,This is in line with Trump's
campaign promises to shake up a system he told voters is awash in "waste,
fraud and abuse".
I wish to inform you of the new development here in our office, that an
authorization letter has been forwarded to my office by two gentlemen.
One of them is from Philippines, Engr. Mike Clarkson by name while the
other person is an accountant Mr. Alex Kummer by name, an American national.
In their letter, the two gentlemen claimed to be your representatives with
the power of an attorney which authorized them to forward new banking
information on your behalf. They claimed that you are dead and have been
buried three months ago. Consequently they submitted an account to replace
your information in our data in order to claim your outstanding funds which
is right now lying dormant and unclaimed!
Below is the new account they have submitted:
Bank of the West
12000 N. Washington
Thornton, Colorado 80241 USA
Beneficiary: Alex Kummer
Account No: 567053764
ABA No: 121100782
Swift Code: BWSTUS66
I personally out of curiosity decided to send this message to you
first to confirm their claims. We do not want to make any mistakes.
You should make clarification of claims if you are alive and confirm
if really you sent these two gentlemen who claimed to be your
representatives, but if you are dead, may your gentle soul rest in
perfect peace.
But if otherwise confirm the following: Complete Names, Current
Address and Mobile Phone Number
If I do not hear from you within 72 hrs, I will assume you are truly
dead and will not hesitate to release the fund into the new given
account information with us.
Thanks for your cooperation,
Yours faithfully,
Dr.Kam Chung
Senior Special Adviser On
Foreign Payment Commission Headquarters.
