Attn: Dear Contractor
RE: PAYMENT OF US$5,500,000:00
I am Mr. Marx Eliott, Director of the office of Loans, Interest and Income Tax, Bank of Industry, Nigeria. Sometimes ago, money was Sent to you but has remained unclaimed over a period of time and was taken back to the Federal Government Treasury as unclaimed contractual fund. This money is US$5,500,000:00 which is ready to be paid through a direct wire transfer.
For your information, I would advise you to hasten up to pick this fund because from time to time, the CBN and Finance Ministry auditors do come to our bank to cross-check our files and our financial update. The earlier you comply with the demands of the transfer or delivery of the fund the faster the action because the CBN officials might want the fund released to them or be referred to the Federal Government coffers.
In this light, what we need from you now is your maximum co-operation thus the below requirements must be forwarded immediately.
(a) Any form of identification
(b) Telephone
(c) Address
As a matter of fact, we don?t have enough time to waste since we have wasted time in contacting you. Contact me through this email: with the above listed requirement for proper documentation and processing of your fund. I am expecting your immediate response.
Contact email: [email protected]
Yours Sincerely,
Mr. Marx Eliott
Director of the office of Loans
Bank of Industry, Nigeria
