Attention Beneficiary,

We wish to inform you that the newly elected President of Benin Republic His Excellency Patrice Talon set up an independent committee to investigate the unnecessary delay of payments previously approved by the past administration through Western Union money transfer / ATM card. During the course of their investigation they discovered with great dismay that you are one of the unlucky beneficiaries whose payment has been unnecessarily delayed by corrupt officials of the government, charging outrageous and unending fees in attempt to frustrate foreigners for sole purpose of diverting funds into their private accounts.

I am glad to contact you today due to the irrevocable payment approval issued by the Presidency to release your total payment $4,500,000 through diplomatic cash delivery immediately. The Bank has successfully converted the total payment $4,500,000 USD to cash and packaged it in a sealed consignment Box which was dispatched to United States of America since yesterday through a UN Certified international diplomat agent Mr.Joseph Hugoh. Their flight departed Benin International airport yesterday at 11:45 AM and the good news is that he has confirmed arrival to United States of America with your consignment box awaiting Diplomatic clearance which is compulsory for all sealed diplomatic consignments.

Contact Diplomat Joseph Hugoh now at his private email ([email protected]) and reconfirm the following details below so that he will meet you to deliver the consignment box immediately after clearance and to avoid any further delay. Do not keep him waiting because the only clearance fee you will be required to pay is the Diplomatic Arrival Clearance fee of the box because it's sealed to avoid opening for inspection and loss of any part of the money.

– Full Names……….
– Delivery address……..
– Cell phone number………
– Nearest airport………

Note that for the safety of the diplomat and contents of the Consignment Box, ALL communication should be kept confidential between you and the diplomat to avoid problems as the Box in his possession contains huge amount of money in cash with highly rated documents. I hope you understand that no one should know about this delivery or the real content of the box until you meet with the Diplomat to avoid interception of any information. Send an email now to establish communication and facilitate your delivery, keep me informed as soon as he hands over the box to you so that i will add your name to the list of those that have successfully received their payments as approved.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. Compliments of the season.

Yours Sincerely,

Roy Vanter Esq.
Payment Coordinator.
