SURROGATE COURT, 152 GENESEE ST, AUBURN,NY USA (NEW YORK STATE SUPREME
COURT)OVER-DUE PAYMENT RELEASED FINALLY, YOUR FUND IS NOW HERE IN THE
USA AWAITING TO BE SHIPPED TO YOUR ADDRESS,
ATTENTION: DEAR, THE TRUTH YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR LONG OVERDUE
FUNDS.
Sequel to the above specifications, the management of the Funds
Reconciliation Department here in New York City USA, wishes to let you
know that your fund worth total amount of $15.5 million is long overdue
payment, every precept regarding your funds has been concluded. You will
be receiving your funds from this Surrogate Court Office any moment from
now. We take, keep and make report of every transaction done here in the
USA. Investigations gathered by the Fund Regulatory Agency {IMF}, shows
you have been receiving numerous emails from several offices requesting
you to claim your funds. In some cases, you tried a lot but still the
transfer or delivery was not completed due to one reason or the other.
The fact is that you are stuck between the chains which make it
impossible for you to differentiate the real office from its
counterfeit.
I know you will be expecting to hear from me regarding this delivery
after the last attempt to get it over. The fact is that I understand
you're been into so many transaction and I decided to stay clear so that
you will understand the truth about everything going on within the
internet.
We noticed that the only real offices that had ever contacted you in
respect to your funds were United State Embassy Benin Republic and
Federal Reserve Bank of New York. It was brought to our notice that the
former Ambassador to the republic of Benin, Ambassador Chinedu, made
voluntary effort to bring your funds along to your home address but
couldn't due to some fall-out on your ends. The Federal Reserve Bank of
New York came up to make a wire transfer but they said you couldn't meet
up with the fee demand for the transfer, so they gave up on you. In a
more proper and legalized manner, the International Monetary Fund and
the Federal Reserve Bank solicited us Fund Reconciliation Department to
allow your fund to be written as a ATM CARD or Credited as Visa Card and
be shipped to your home address through the USA Priority Express Mail.
These options, we supposed could be the best, easiest and the most
efficient way to have you get hold of your long awaited United Nations
approved funds.
Like you were told by the Federal Reserve Bank aforementioned, your
funds was transferred from about four different banks; Central Bank of
Kenya, United Bank of Africa Benin Republic, Bank of America and Nat
west bank London. In total, your funds were amounting to the tune of
USD15.5 Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars As we speak,
your funds have been credited in your Visa Card and also available as
Cashier's ATM CARD well documented and packaged. The documented package
will be shipped to your mailing address by the USA Priority Express Mail
here in NY, USA. The ONLY thing needed before we can POST your ATM CARD
is the PROCUREMENT FILES of your funds. The procurement file is at the
Origin Country of your funds in West Africa Benin Republic
For the purpose to avoiding double payment on your end, we had an
agreement with the IMF and Federal Reserve to document every charge
necessary until the package gets to your home address. The analytical
group of the two offices mentioned above had an accurate sum of $150 for
Procurement. So it was constituted and officially submitted to the
"Court of Justice" that the ONLY charge you will EVER pay before your
package leaves our office here in USA to your home address is $150 for
your Procurement Files to be signed and conveyed down here in the USA
and YOU WILL NEVER pay a dime again as agreed. We are renowned and
reputable USA Agency and we don't like an undocumented process that is
why it had to be written down in Court that you will never pay any other
money apart from the $150 The $150 is for "PROCUREMENT FEES" (That is
for someone to sign your file on your behalf). USA Ambassador to Benin
Republic, "Ambassador Chinedu, who will be coming to the United State in
few days will have the Power of Attorney to stand in and sign on your
behalf (since you can't travel down to Benin because of that) so that he
can sign and bring along with him your PROCUREMENT FILES to us here to
enable us POST your loaded ATM CARD to your mailing address via Priority
Express Mail without any hitch.
However, according to our agreement with the originated Country Benin
Republic, all our communications should be on email for recording
purpose so follow my instruction accordingly, even if you don't have the
$150 try to borrow it and send it immediately today because this is your
life opportunity and I don't want you to lose the chance any more.
Therefore, the days of you being subjected to paying twice Double
Payment is over as that is the case with some corrupt officials down
there in Africa, whom always strife to subject beneficiaries to hard
bureaucratic bottleneck, thereby making it impossible for most innocent
citizens spread across the globe and the likes to claim what rightfully
belongs to them. Thank GOD that your funds are here in NEW YORK
SURROGATE COURT, USA and so we decided to follow the USA constitutions
so as to ensure that your money is in your hands this weekend. Without
mincing words, it will be desirous if you consciously and here to the
above instruction by remitting the PROCUREMENT FEES calculated to be
$150 down to the office of Ambassador Chinedu, at the USA
Consulate/Embassy in Benin so that your ATM CARD could be shipped to
your home address as soon as the Ambassador arrives here with your
procurement files. The PROCUREMENT FEE of $150 is PAYABLE in two payment
options:
