Hello Email Owner,
I sincerely apologise for sending you this sensitive information via
E-mail instead of a certified mail, phone call or a one on one
conversation. I'm William McFadden, Assistant cargo and transportation
officer (Operations, Maintenance, and Transportation) here at the
Newark international airport.
Last week, I discovered an abandoned shipment from a Diplomat from
London at the Airport's Vault. After scanning the luggage it Revealed
an undisclosed sum of money in a Metal Trunk Box weighing
approximately 110kg. The luggage was abandoned because the Contents of
the consignment was not properly declared by the consignee as "MONEY"
rather it was declared as personal items in order to avoid
interrogation from the U.S Customs authorities. I also found out that
the diplomat was unable to pay for the U.S Custom Duty charges which
is $7,500 USD so i guess that might be one of the reasons why the
Luggage is still left in our Storage Facility till date.
However, my further investigations revealed that the straight bill of
lading we received from the courier company did not specify the
beneficiary to whose order the luggage box was to be delivered to but
it indicated the email address and the last name of the consignee
(Receiver of the Luggage) that's why i have decided to contact you
directly. Kindly provide your cell Phone Number, your Address as well
as well as the nearest Airport around your city so that i may confirm
you as the actual recipient of this luggage, i need to compare these
information with the ones we have on our records. Please note that
this Luggage was supposed to have been returned to the Federal Reserve
Bank as unclaimed delivery due to the delays in concluding the
clearance processes. Once I have confirmed that you are the actual
recipient of the luggage box, I can get everything concluded within
48hours upon your acceptance and proceed to your address for delivery.
Lastly, be informed that the reason I have taken it upon myself to
contact you personally about this luggage is because I want us to
transact this deal and share the money 70% for you and 30% for me
since the Luggabe has not yet been returned to the Federal Reserve
Bank after being abandoned by the diplomat. Immediately the
confirmation is made, I will go ahead and pay for the United States
Custom Duty charges of $7,500 dollars and arrange for the box to be
delivered to your doorstep Or I can bring it by myself to avoid
anymore trouble but you have to assure me of my 30% share.
I wait to hear from you urgently if you are still alive and I will
appreciate it if we can keep this deal confidential. Please get back
to me via my private Email :
( [email protected] ) for further directives.
GOD BLESS AMERICA
BEST REGARDS.
MR.WILLIAM C. MCFADDEN
