Attention: Beneficiary,
RE: CONFIRMATION OF YOUR FUND TRANSFER:
This is in pursuit of your supposed overdue/outstanding payment; I
have the opportunity to explain to you the controversy surrounding
your payment, following the change in your bank account. Really, this
fund is still existing in our government, annual report payment
schedule on foreign debts as unclaimed and in your favour as the sole
beneficiary but it is unfortunate that your Nigerian representative
were acting in collaboration with some government official here in
Nigeria to divert this money and have made derogatory remarks on your
payment file, thereby unlawfully demanding excessive taxes and levies
just to frustrate you, and i am sure that this is the reason why this
fund has not been transferred to your account.
We are deeply sorry for every inconvenience their actions might have
caused you due to their financial incredibility. It should be noted
that, the reason why i am contacting you is to seek clarity if you
have mandated one Mr. Edmond Peters from Britain to collect your fund
into his Zurich account on your behalf.
Based on the Federal Government Pronouncement on Foreign/International
Payment in conjunction with the World Bank, International Monetary
Fund (IMF), United Nations and the Brenton Wood Agreement, in ensuring
that all Beneficiary's are promptly paid their overdue funds.The
Federal Government of Nigeria has passed a mandate to boost the
exercise of clearing all foreign debts owed to you and other
individuals and organizations who have been found not to have receive
their Contract Sum, Inheritance Sum, Lottery and the likes.
By this scheme the Nigerian Government has taken over the
responsibility of paying back part of what is being owed to
Beneficiary's, in line with these all foreign debt above the tune of
$5Million United States Dollars will be paid in two installment. The
first installment of $2.5Million United States Dollars is to be paid
within this financial quarter of the year while the balance will be
paid in a later installment. Most importantly be aware that
$2,500,000.00(Two Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars)
has been approved as part payment to be released to you in this batch
and the balance will be paid in (6)Six Months time.
You are therefore advised to re-confirm the following information
stated below to enable us process and up-date your payment file for
