Subject: Hello
Good day. My name is Lesley Jones from London, United Kingdom. We are
looking for a certain person who owns the email address I contacted
you with. If the email address is yours then you are the one, we have
been looking for all these while. We are glad to bring this news to
you. The IMF in conjunction with the European Union met and agreed
that a Vault office should be used to compensate all scammed victims
and your compensation Amount is $1,000,000 (One million United States
dollar) as you are among the persons who is to be compensated. Twenty
one (21) bank and government officials have been arrested worldwide so
far and arrest is still going on. We have recovered the total sum of
13.4 Million United States dollars from the scam syndicates in both
cash and assets confirmed to have come from their victims. Email
addresses of victims (which include yours) have also been recovered
from their address books. It is at this juncture that we are
contacting you because you are now listed as one of the beneficiaries
of the I.M.F compensation payment. You are hereby warned not to
communicate or duplicate this message to any of the scam syndicates
for any reason whatsoever as the Interpol is already on trace of the
other criminals. So keep it secret till they are all apprehended.
Other victims who have not been contacted can submit their application
as well for scrutiny and possible consideration. Sorry if you received
this mail in your spam folder, due to a recent connection error from
the service provider. Waiting for your response urgently for more
details on how to receive these funds without any problem. Pls.
Contact me on this email for more explanation.
