We understand that the COVID-19 public health crisis and resulting
economic crisis have created a variety of challenges for individuals,
small, micro and solo businesses around the world amidst the new
variant. The Treasury Department is providing critical assistance to
selected individuals across the globe, facilitating the urgent
deployment of capital and support to help individuals and small
businesses not just persevere, but recover on solid footing in these
difficult times.
The US Treasury have directed the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to
expedite the payment of all outstanding
compensation/inheritance/pandemic relief funds owed to individuals and
small businesses from previous years and be sure that all funds are
paid to befitting beneficiaries this fiscal year 2022.
As a result of this development, you have been selected alongside a
few other beneficiaries to receive a payment of $1,250,000 (One
Million Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars only).
In lieu of this, you are required to furnish me with your personal
details as requested below to enable us process your payment;
(1) Full Names:
(2) Residential Address:
(3) Date of Birth:
(4) Phone/Cell Number:
(5) Occupation:
More so, it’s my concern to demand your ultimate honesty and
cooperation to enable us expedite this transaction. It is guaranteed
that this process would be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that would legally protect you from any breach of Law.
Get back to me as soon as you can.
