Greetings!
Your Confirm able Bank Draft of $800.000.00 United States Dollars has been
deposited with PARCEL EXPRESS COURIER SERVICES, West Africa because you did not
respond to my first email and I was traveling out of the country for a 3 Month
Course and I will not come back till end of May so contact them.
Contact Person: Mr. Joe Briggs
Email Address: x_parcel@yahoo.com.hk
I have paid for the delivering Charges except their Security Keeping Fee of
$300USD which they said no because they don't know when you will contact
them in case of demur rage. so you are to pay the $300USD as soon as you
contact
them.
Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Postal address() and Direct
telephone number to them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery and ask
them
to give you the tracking number to enable you track your package over there and
know when it will get to your address.
Yours Faithfully,
Mr. Chris Walter
Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
Consider switching off your AdBlocker (if you use one) or contributing directly by one of the links below. Thank you for reading!
