We have the pleasure in bringing to your notice this letter once again as we have written you concerningyour pending unclaimed outstanding funds of the sum of $USD5.7Millions in our custody and as you have deemed it fit entirely to ignore our letter, we shall have no alternative rather than to take a disastrous decision if we didn't hear from you this time around as your withheld outstanding funds has been released and credited to your names, And is currently floating in our accredited international paying Bank as unclaimed outstanding funds. You are advised to contact your assigned payment officer below for more payment arrangements and directives on how your outstanding pending payment can be remitted to you in a period no more than 21 working days and failure not get back to your payment officer {P.O} for more directives will leave us with no further option rather than to call to the attention of the UK treasury for indefinitely payment confiscation of your outstanding funds.

As told initially, the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is an independent body set up under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA), and funded by a levy on "authorized financial services firms". The scheme covers deposits, intercepted foreign and local payment, inheritance payment, insurance policies, insurance brokering, investments and mortgages. Please let us know exactly what the problem is and perhaps we can suggest some ways to overcome it. We shall be much obliged if you will not neglect this letter otherwise such negligence would be a disastrous decision, we believe your reply will be of the utmost assistance you.
Yours faithfully
Mr. Bonham Holdsworth
