PAYMENT NOTIFICATION OF YOUR FUNDS
Attn: Beneficiary,
Hello. We have decided to bring to your attention, the fact that we have done
everything necessary to make sure payments from the debt remittance account are
made to the Bonafide Beneficiaries. I am informing you of an attempt by some men
to collect your payment on your behalf. I had to ask them why they came to see
me in person and they said that they came to collect your inheritance/contract
funds payment sum of $5M which rightfully belongs to you as shown in your file
with us, on your behalf and by your authorization.
However, I am writing you this email to find out from you if you actually sent
them. Note that they actually tendered some vital documents which proved that
you actually sent them to collect these funds. Below is the list of documents
which they presented.
1) Letter of administration
2) Order to release
3) High court injunction
Due to the nature of my job, I cannot afford to make any mistake in releasing
the funds to anyone except you who is the recognized as true beneficiary to
these funds. I want to hear from you before I order the release of the funds to
these men who claim to be your representatives because they will be back to my
office next week. I decided to carry out this decision based on my work
experience and this is a risk I cannot take because I have not heard anything
from you.
Kindly direct your response to the private email address of my boss, Prof.
Charles Soludo, the executive governor of the central bank of Nigeria Cbn,
below for quicker deliberation and response from him on the release of your
funds to you.
Please remember to indicate your personal phone number he can reach you on in
your response.
Note that for security reasons you have been assigned a code/password which is
{TT7270CBN}, please note that this code is the reference number for your
transfer and it's being disclosed to you alone, guard this jealously and all
your email response should carry this code as the subject.
Yours faithfully,
Dr Charles soludo
Governor.Central bank of Nigeria
