ATTENTION FUND BENEFICIARY,
This is an official advice from the FBI foreign Remittance / telegraphic dept.,
it has come to our notice that the C.B.N Bank Nigeria district has released
10,500,000.00 US dollars into bank of America in your name as the beneficiary,
by inheritance means. The C.B.N Bank Nigeria knowing fully well that they do not
have Enough facilities to effect this payment from the united kingdom to your
account, used what we know as a secret diplomatic transit payment (S.T.D.P) to
pay this fund through wire transfer, they used this means to complete the
payment.
They are still, waiting for confirmation from you on the already Transferred
funds which were made in direct transfer so that they can do final crediting to
your account. Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are
related to terrorist activities why must your
payment be made in secret transfer, if your transaction is legitimate, if you
are not a terrorist, then why did you not receive the money directly into your
account; this is a pure coded, means of payment?
Records which we have had with this method of payment in the past Has always
been related to terrorist acts, we do not want you to get into trouble as soon
as these funds reflect in your account in the U.S.A, so it is our duty as a
world wide commission to correct this little problem before this fund will be
credited into your personal account.
Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American
authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, the
F.B.I bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver
payment of $10,500,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a
secured diplomatic transit account (S.D.T.A). We govern and oversee funds
transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world.
We advice you to contact us immediately, as the funds have been Stopped and are
being held in our custody, until you can be able to provide us with a diplomatic
immunity seal of transfer (dist) within 3 days from the world local bank that
authorize the transfer from where the
funds was transferred from to certify that the funds that you are about to
receive from Nigeria are antiterrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to
cross and impound the Payment, we shall release the funds immediately we

not to release the fund to anybody that comes to them, unless we ask them to do
so, because we have to carry out our investigations first before releasing the
fund to you. Note that the fund is in the BANK OF AMERICA right now, but we have
ask them not to credit the fund to you yet, because we need a solid proof and
Verifications from you before releasing the funds.
