Subject: Attention my dear,


Attention my dear,

Compliment of the day to you and your beloved family. I am writing to inform
you that the Government of Benin has asked us to divert all unclaimed funds
that belongs to the foreigners who are not ready to receive their funds to the
Government's treasury. Due to the fact that I really aware that you need to
receive your fund and have already spent some money and time in getting the
fund despite that you were unable to obtained the Clearance Certificate which
was demanded by the Authorities.

Due to the fact that you have spent some money and time in order to receive the
funds, then I could not allow all the money you spent and the time you wasted
to be in vain. Therefore I cashed the fund, packaged it in a box and have
registered it with a diplomat to deliver it to your address.

The diplomat departed since 2weeks ago and I have been expecting a call
from you and the diplomat because I told her to call us once she arrived at
your address so that I will speak with you to make sure she has delivered the
package to you but the call we got from the diplomat few minutes ago was that
she has lost your information at your airport there. I should have given him
the information but I could not find it in my mailbox due to too many junk
mails we receives and we used to delete all messages everyday. I got to found
only your email address because it was in my address book but your other info
were deleted.

However, we require your urgent action and officially urge you to reconfirm the
following information below to the diplomat right away so that she will
deliver your consignment box to you today hence she is now in your Country with
your package.

Your full Name:………………..
Home address:…………………
Your direct Tel & Fax Number:………………….
Name of your nearest Air Port :………………….
A copy of your identification:…………………..

Please do contact the Diplomatic Agent via email with the information listed
bellow. Agent Name; Mrs. theresa(Diplomat Afloat Officer)

Phone Number + 1 2028586244
E-mail ( [email protected] )

she is waiting to hear from you today with the information.

Note once again: The Diplomatic agent does not know that the content of the
consignment box is sum of Fifteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United State of
American Dollar ($12.500.000.00 Million USD) and on no circumstances should you
let her know the content. The consignment was moved from here as family
treasures, so never allow her to open the box.

Yours Faithful,
mr john williams
