UNIVERSAL BANK PLC Corporate Head Office Victoria Island Lagos Nigeria
Dear Beneficiary,
This letter is written to you in order to change your life from today. My name is Mr. David Dare the Head of International Remittance Department in Universal Bank Plc. My Boss Mr. Lewis C. Akigbe, the Managing Director/CEO of this bank is now on a compulsory sick leave due to his present health condition, So all power have been vested on me to make all international payments.
I contacted you because my boss refused to tell you the truth that the Federal Government has long approved the release of your fund of Six Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars ($6,500,000.00) which has been in this bank for 4 years unclaimed by you.
I know you are not aware of this fund because my boss Mr. Lewis C. Akigbe collaborated with the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) which made him not to contact you and tell you the truth on how to claim your fund because he has been using the interest accumulated from your fund every year to enrich himself without your knowledge.
I also discovered that my boss Mr. Lewis C. Akigbe stated boldly in your payment file with payment code 809XPU that you are dead and will not be able to receive your fund when he has not even contacted you. This is because of the huge interest he is making from your fund every year.
In case you do not know the source of this fund, this fund was allocated to you as a compensation because you were among those lucky ones that were randomly selected via email slot by the United Nations 4 years ago as a result of the World Economic Meltdown and Unpaid Contract Fund Refund (UCFR) program held by the United Nation, ECOWAS and World Bank.
As a good Christian, I have nothing to gain by keeping your fund; I want to assist you to receive your fund before my boss resumes office. You have to follow up and work with me now and make sure you keep this very confidential because of fraudsters and impostors who go about presenting various bank accounts in order to divert another beneficiary's fund.
So get back to me with your full names, address, occupation, valid ID and private telephone number as soon as possible so that I can assist you receive your fund.
My Regards,
David Dare Universal Bank Plc
