money transactions originated from any part of Africa, European and
Asian countries as contract payment, Fund Inheritance or Lottery
Winning due to Unauthorized/incapability of financial
Institutions/security companies in releasing such huge sum of money
due to Fraud, terrorism and money Laundry activities going on world
wide.

(afdb) by my office to release funds to beneficiaries through a means

fund beneficiaries whom their fund was successfully cleared for
payment.

Your money will be released to you through any means preferable by you
either by the below options. (1) through online banking transfer (2)
Payment through delivery of an ATM CARD (3) Through Bank to Bank wire
