Please consider this message, do act on the instruction because it is a matter of urgency, I am MRS. S. A. CATZ, the Head of Treasury Department of HSBC BANK LONDON UK.
Sometime ago, in our bank your contract money was brought to our bank from Nigerian Apex Bank, CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (C.B.N) AND AFTER SOME PERIOD, THIS MONEY WAS TAKEN BACK to the Federal Government of Nigeria treasury. For the period of time this money was in our sister bank (UNION BANK NIG PLC), it generated an interest of US$4.5 Million, which we considered your long suffering with Nigerian government contract and decide to pay you this interest fund via Swift Transfer into your account.
What we need from you now is any form of your identification for example; your international passport number or youre driving license number, then your telephone and fax number for easy communication /your account information such as: account number, swift code, aba rooting number, bank name and address.
As a matter of fact we dont have enough time to waste since we have wasted time in contacting our respective customers, so try and comply with the entire necessary requirement for remittance. Contact our sister bank for onward remittance to your account.
