Subject: COMPENSATION FOR YOUR LOST FUND / INHERITANCE

Attention Sir,
I am Attorney Philip Lucas, a Canadian citizen. I work in Canadian
Consulate Istanbul Turkey and I was the secretary of a recently
concluded cyber crime investigation summit held in Morocco North
Africa in November 2019.
The main agenda of the summit is to checkmate and reduce cyber crime,
compensate victims and enhance cyber security.
I must start by apologizing for the delay in contacting you, we have
been battling with this Coronavirus pandemic globally so we decided to
hold but now that the tension is reducing gradually and countries are
opening up we decided to reach you.
In the proceedings of the summit, we unveiled most cyber crime victims
that were either contacted through compensation/inheritance/winnings
and ripped off their money or those who followed their processes but
attempted to assist them in transferring those funds despite that it
failed somehow. We deemed it fit that all victims must be compensated
to make up their loss.
Be notified that you are among those selected to be among cyber crime
victims and a compensatory fee of $1,500,000.00 has been set out to be
paid to you for your loss.
Be informed that we will guide and assist you to receive the fund from
the bank and make up your loss.
Kindly get back to us for further instructions on how you will receive
your compensation.
Kindly reply me on my confidential email account :
[email protected]
We await your response.
Yours faithfully,
Att. Philip Lucas
