Dear Beneficiary
Pay any amount starting from $25 usdollars okay.
I acknowledge the receipt of the mail message to my office two days
ago Wednessday the 15th Of april 2020, and I am also in my deep sense
of regret to hear about the misfortune you have had so far in trying
to receive your Benefited Fund sum of $1.7million usdollars that is
deemed to be transferred by our reputable Organization (Western
Union).
Yes,I have been briefed by the Foreign Remittance Agent of Western
Union about the situation Of Your Fund, and the predicaments. This
Fund is supposed to have transferred to you before now and to tell you
the fact, the moment I signed the last documentation on your transfer
file, I ascertained that you would have gotten your money through the
Board of Directors Oriented Decision after you have procured the Clean
Bill Record Certificate.
Nevertheless, no much damage has been done; I have been able to
retrieve the CERTIFICATE from the Ministry House today, and for
immediate release of your payment.
