Dear Beneficiary,
Sir/Madam.
STATUS OF YOUR PAYMENT FILE
I wish to inform you on behalf of the United States of America Embassy Consulate here in Nigeria that we have received from the Nigeria government your payment file.
Following a Foreign Debt Settlement Loan agreement signed between the Nigerian government with IMF/WORLDBANK, the IMF/WORLDBANK mandated the Nigeria Federal Government to handover all outstanding foreign payment files to the United States Consulate in Lagos to ensure credibility of foreign debt settlement. This is as a result of numerous scam complaints filed by some affected beneficiaries who have been defrauded one way or the other in the course of pursuing their payments by agencies/officials of the Government.
In view of this responsibility conferred on us by IMF/WORLDBANK, and in order for us to carry out this task to your maximum satisfaction, you are advised to contact this office to enable us establish link with you for processing of your payment prior to final payment of your fund through any of our designated and reputable paying financial institution within US and EU.
Due to worldwide economic crunch, which left Nigerian Government with no funds to settle their huge foreign debts owed to individuals and companies, which prompted their applying for loan to IMF/WORLDBANK. And following mountain of scam complaints by foreigners in the hands of officials of Nigerian government, the IMF/WORLDBANK capitalized on this opportunity to ensure that process of paying those affected is transparent and devoid of such complaints again, hence the involvement of US Consulate.
Prior now, there has been a huge bilateral and diplomatic face-off between the Nigerian government, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, as well the U.S Government due to the government inability to pay all outstanding funds of foreign beneficiaries. And among the criteria for approval of the loan for the Nigerian government is for the United States Consulate to takeover charge and pay all outstanding funds to the rightful beneficiaries after thorough scrutiny and verification hence this letter to you. It has been ascertained that 90% of those affected are from the United States, Asia and E.U countries.
Therefore, to enable us proceed, you should send the below information for scrutiny, and subsequent payment. Meanwhile, if you should opt for certified bank check or ATM MASTER CARD then you do not need to send your bank details, but rather your correct address to receive the check or ATM MASTER CARD.
(1) FULL NAMES AND ADDRESS.
(2) YOUR BANK DETAILS TO RECIEVE YOUR FUND.
(3) COPY OF YOUR IDENTIFICATION (VERY IMPORTANT)
(4) AMOUNT OF YOUR OUTSTANDING PAYMENT (IN US$) ONLY.
(5) ACCURATE TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS
This will enable us finalize with the head of government and transfer your fund.
Sincerely,
Mr. Powell James.
Director, Foreign Debt Settlement Unit (FDSU),
United States Consulate
