Subject: Reference:The Deduction of Your Payment,
Reference:The Deduction of Your Payment,
This is to inform you that in the course of my investigation as
director of the
payment verification / implementation committee I came across your
name as an
unpaid fund beneficiary in the record of the central bank of Nigeria
and other
banks that are supposed to get your funds released to you. My
committee was set up
by the payment reconciliation committee to verify and scrutinize all
outstanding
debts owed to our foreign beneficiaries in accordance with the
information
received from the United States government and other countries over
unpaid huge
debts owed to Foreigners.
Having seen your file and my further questioning to the officials of
the central
bank of Nigeria and ministry of finance as to why your payment is
still pending
reveals the rot and corruption in the system.
The bank officials told me that the reason why you haven’t received
your payment
is due to your inability to pay for the required charges for transfer
of funds to
your account. When I asked them why they didn’t deduct the said
charges from your
principal sum, I was given the flimsy excuse that you never authorized
them to do
so. When I put the question across to them if they ever advised you
that such
charges could be deducted from your principal fund, the answer I got
was no.
Now, if you do not tell this beneficiary that such charges could be
deducted from
his or her principal fund, how will he or she know that such options
are available
for such beneficiaries.
From my investigation I discovered that these bank officials
deliberately refused
to let the charges be deducted from your principal fund because they
want your
fund to remain trapped in the bank, while they continue to extort
money from
beneficiaries under some flimsy excuse. You do not need to pay any
money to any
official, all you are required to do is swear an affidavit at the
federal high
court of Nigeria, authorizing the bank to deduct all charges from your
principal
fund and transfer the balance of funds after deduction to your bank
account. If
you have spent any money in the past in your quest for payment, kindly
let me know
so that I can follow this up.
You can reach me on my phone or email for a directive on how you can
get the
deduction done as soon as possible and get your payment also.
Yours sincerely,
Thank you.
