Attention Your Fund Transfer $35.5 MILLION,
To your notice: US government on foreign/local payment in its last
meeting on November 10th 2023 with the (CEO Mr. Brian Moynihan) of
BANK OF AMERICA gave a final approval for the immediate payment of
all the foreign contractors who for long executed their contract in
United State of America without receiving their contract payment.
In view of this present development, we wish to inform you that your
contract fund has been stated for immediate remittances but action is
on your contract payment following a change of account application
filled in by one MR. GILBERT MAC UMU with the new account details as
follows:

This account information which was submitted by MR. GILBERT MAC UMU
did not come with VALID POWER OF ATTORNEY, it is this issue that
compelled me to contact you so as to receive confirmation from you on
the change of account.
If this change of account was authorized by you, it has to be written
in company letter headed paper stamped and signed by you; Reconfirming
to me the following. 1. That the application for the change of
beneficiary was done with your consent.
2. That the said fund should be transferred into the above account.
This has to be done immediately because we will not entertain any
enquiry from your so called agent who came to this office demanding
your contract payment by cashier cheque, telegraphic transfer or
certified bank draft: If in the alternative you did not permit any
body to effect such a change of account, authenticate your disapproval
to this office in your letter headed paper with all the contract and
account details clearly stated.
This is to enable us avoid errors in transferring of this fund.
BANK OF AMERICA will not be held responsible for any wrong
information given to us. You are expected to contact this office
