Subject: [ Score/Req: 11.8/5.0] Dear Beneficiary,
From: The Desk of Mr. John Aboh
International Remittance Department
First Bank Nig Plc
Email– { [email protected] }
Dear Beneficiary,
This is a personal email directed to you and I request that it be
treated as such, I am Mr. John Aboh the Director of International
Remittance Department of this Bank, my Boss, Mr. Jacobs M.
Ajekigbe,the Managing director/CEO of this bank is now on compulsory
leave and all power have been vested on me to make all international
payments. Also, due to reported cases of corrupt practices in some
Nigerian commercial Banks, the Federal Government has
revoked/cancelled all power vested on those banks and has appointed
our bank (First Bank of Nigeria) to make all foreign payments.
Be informed that the Federal Government have approved the release of
part-payment of$2.5M(Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) out
of
your total funds, which has been in this bank for many years
unclaimed
because my boss Mr. Jacobs Ajekigbe, collaboration with the Governor
of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) have refused to tell you the truth
on
how to claim your fund this is because he has been using the interest
accumulated from your fund every year to enrich himself without your
knowledge.
I want to help you pull out this fund to your bank account using the
easiest and the quickest method, which have not been made known to
you
before. By this method, you will open a domiciliary account with this
bank (First Bank of Nigeria), your fund would be lodged into this
domiciliary account and your fund will be paid in directly to any
bank
of your choice. After the transfer, you will confirm the fund in your
bank account within 5hours the same day. No Cost of Transfer (COT)
and
no stoppage from any Government departments as the transfer will be
done within the bank alone and it is very safe.
The method which was introduced to you before is the Telegraphic
Transfer (TT) for which confirmation was 48hrs, because of the time
factor, petitions could come from various organizations stopping your
payment and asking you to pay huge fee which would be difficult for
you to pay so that they can benefit from the huge interest your fund
generates while still in the Bank.
This method is not safe for you because it is not done within the
bank
alone as information of the payment would be sent to the Central
Control Unit (CCU) of the Federal Ministry of Finance and office of
the Accountant General of the Federation. As a good Christian, I have
nothing to gain by keeping your fund, I want to assist you receive
your fund before my boss resumes office. You have to follow up and
work with me now, so keep this very confidential because of
fraudsters
and impostors who go about presenting various bank accounts in order
to divert another beneficiary’s fund.
your present/valid account co-ordinates and amount to be claimed so
that I do not transfer your fund to the wrong Bank Account.
Awaiting your quick response.
Yours truly,
Mr.John Aboh
International Remittance Department
