Attention: Esteem Beneficiary,

Inline with our mandate as the financial markets regulator to the Bank
and likewise in this country, having received complaints from the
international community over the inability of banks in Switzerland to
release funds meant for foreign beneficiaries. We took this obligation
up to ascertain and unravel the reasons banks in this country are
delaying and withholding funds meant to be released to beneficiaries.

In view of the above, our funding reveals that most of the banks have
concluded a strategy to divert these funds for their personal use by
denying the beneficiaries their payment, we have at the moment
received shortlisted beneficiaries payment files from these banks here
in Switzerland.

Note that you were one of the beneficiaries who are yet to get paid
and we have appointed KEY BANK our corresponding in the United States
of America to urgently commence the release of these funds to prepared
beneficiaries having sent payment notification to the above bank. We
have approved to every beneficiary US$11.5Million to be released by
the above mentioned bank.

Your Full Names
Your Address
Your Direct Phone Number
Your Identification

I look forward to your immediate response.

Faithfully,

 

Alexandra Karg,
Head of Operations division
