Attention Fund Beneficiary.
We have been instructed to release your Consignment Box containing the sum of $3.5million, that this Unit of U.S. Customs and Border Protection seized, which has been in our custody for a long time due to your inability to provide the Clearance certificates, which you were asked to obtain from Africa where the fund was transferred from.
You were fortunate after our investigation last month the US Department of States instructed that we should release all the fund that U.S. Customs and Border Protection seized to their owners in this first quarter of the year, so you are therefore advised to come or send your representative to this office to claim your fund immediately.
You are advised to comply immediately, Below is the office address.
