Subject: Important
We intercepted two consignment boxes at JFK Airport, New York. The boxes were scanned and they contained a large sum of money ($4.1million) and also some backup documents which bear your name as the Beneficiary/Receiver of the money. Investigation was carried out on the diplomat that accompanied the boxes into the United States and he said that he was to deliver the fund to your residence as overdue payment owed to you by the Federal Republic of Nigeria through the security company in the United Kingdom.
After cross-checking all legal documents in the boxes, we found out that your consignment was lacking two important documents and we can’t release the boxes to the diplomat until the document is brought forth, we have no other option than to confiscate your consignment.
You are required to reply back within 72 hours or you will be prosecuted in a court of law for money laundering.
Yours In Service,
Special Agent John Edward
Regional Deputy Director
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
