Dear Beneficiary,
Hurry now and claim your fund from the Central Bank of Nigeria or your
fund will be confiscated by the wicked officials of the CBN.
My name is MISS. JANET BROWN, I am a Computer Scientist working with
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). I am 25 years old, just started working
with CBN.
I came across your payment file marked X and your released disk
painted RED. I took time to study it and tried to find out why the
funds were not released to you. Those evil officials can never tell
you the truth that they won't release the fund to you; instead they
allow you spend your hard earned money unnecessarily.
I do not intend to work here forever; I can help you claim your fund
if you can certify me of my security and assure me that you would
compensate with me after you must have received your payment. I must
do this because you need to know the status of your payment and cause
for the delay. This is like a Mafia setting in Nigeria and you may not
understand because you are not a Nigerian.
The only thing needed to release this fund to you is the Original
INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER PERMIT (ITP), which will be tendered to any of
your nominated bank and the Internal Revenue Service IRS for clearance
of the transferred amount in your account.
Once the Original TRANSFER PERMIT Certificate is secured, fund will
immediately reflect in your bank within 24 HOURS. The only authorized
and sincere person who will issue you the Original Documents is Dr.
Ibrahim Bello. Make sure you indicate your file letter X and tell him
its painted color Red so he will be able to recognize your file. The
president made a compensation fund release for all unpaid
beneficiaries/contractors and scam victims.
Therefore, you are going to receive a total sum of $2,700,000.00 (TWO
MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS) for this year 2017 as recorded
in your file here and will be transferred to your bank account as soon
as the Original document is obtained.
Do get back to me ASAP through this ( [email protected] ) if you are
still interested in claiming your fund so that I can give you further
direction and contact of Dr. Ibrahim Bello.
Yours sincerely,
MISS JANET BROWN
