Complement and Greetings
 
                                        STANDARD
CHARTERED  BANK APPROVED PAYMENT LETTER.  

This is to let you know that your case has repeatedly come to my
Office everyday and all the complaints that I have been getting all in
regards to your payment with the European Union in collaboration with
Standard Chartered Bank has been involved to pay to you. Enough of
this entire allegation that we have been adamant over your payment, I
want you to know that we have to end everything now without further
issues.

I am handling this payment myself with Standard Chartered Bank,and we
have approved the sum of US$38,000,000.00 for you and I don’t want
to know how much you are supposed to be paid. I have a meeting with
the European Union in collaboration with Standard Chartered Bank, and
the Finance Ministry who have agreed that we should handle this
payment and Make sure that your funds are released to you by online
banking system or bank to bank wire transfer with immediate effect.

I want to let you know that the European Union has paid for all papers
that will delay your payment such as: The Anti Terrorist and Drug Law
Clearances, Financial Service Authority (FSA), Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
(FinCEN) AND The Financial Action Task Force (on Money Laundering)
(FATF). so you have nothing to worry about.

I will require you to make your choice out of the two modes of payment
you would want to receive from our bank and get back to this office
regarding this information and we will take it from there.  You will
be required to forward your particulars for verification such as.

Full Name———-
Address————
Mobile Phone Number———-
Next Of Kin Name—————-
Current Occupation————-

This is the only way I can help you get your long awaited payment
 through an online banking system or bank to bank  . If you are
serious about receiving your fund as I stated contact me with this
email:[email protected] very urgent.

I will Be waiting for your swift response.
