privileged ones worldwide.

The World Bank Partnership Programme was held today 03/10 / 2021 in
West Africa (NIGERIA) and luckily you are among the 165 persons from
over 48 countries that benefited /compensated to receive a sum of
“$150,000.00 USD” through our Western Union Headquarter. According to
the instructions, we will be sending you $10,000 USD (ONE HUNDRED AND
FIFTY Thousand US DOLLARS
Dollars) daily till the “$150,000.00 USD” is sent completely.

We write to inform you that we have already started the transfer
process today and shall send you $10,000 USD through Western Union money
transfer system as we have been given the mandate by the United
Nations/World Bank to transfer the total funds via Western Union. The
purpose of Compensation and donating this money around the world is to
support those that were affected by Covid-19 and to help poor
families, the needy and the less privileged in society.

We have decided to mail you the MTCN code and sender name, so you can
pick up the first payment of $10,000 USD after the activation process of
your account is completed. Please pick up this information below and
run to any Western Union in your country and pick up the first payment
of $10,000 USD out of your compensation given by the United Nations
/World Bank. As soon as you have done that then update us immediately.

Note: You are advised to pay a sum of $20 dollar only, for activation
of your Account in our office, because the account has been DORMANT
for months, and needed to be re-activated to enable us make easy
transfer. You are to contact our activation officer (Mr.RUTGER SMETS)
via his Phone number here (+23470869310) for the activation to be
done, so that we can proceed to make the transfer without further
delay.

Since the fund was awarded in our Western Union Headquarter office no
transfer has been made, because we are waiting for an instruction from
the UN/World Bank for legal confirmation, so that is why the account
has been Dormant for a very long time and needed to be activated
first, before making any transfer to avoid any error.

The activation processing fee is $20 dollar only, and you are expected
to send the fee via MoneyGram or Western Union. Here is the payment
information to pick up the first $10,000 USD after the activation of
your account is completed in our office. Pls, you can call our
