Dear Beneficiary
On behalf of the Management of CITIBANK OF LONDON,I wish to bring to your attention that the INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND,(IMF) WASHINGTON HEADQUARTERS has transferred the total sum of $10.500,000.00 dollars to our bank and with instruction that the said funds should be officially transferred to your preferred bank account.
And considering the financial recklessness and the rate of financial inadequacies/extortion, the bank felt that before it can commence with the processing for transfer of the said humongous financial responsibility, the bank thought it wise to first get in touch with you for re-confirmation of your data and also to enable us verify your data forwarded to us by the IMF.
Note,we shall formally proceed with the processing of the funds transfer as advised on receipt of your reply.
Awaiting your response.
Regards,
John C Gerspach
Chief financial officer,
CITI BANK OF LONDON.
