Subject: CLARIFICATION HOPING TO HEAR FROM YOU
Dear Sir,
I recieve your mail in good condition.Please note that this transaction is something that i want to actualise without any trace.I like my honourable job of confidence as manager auditor.I would like to leave the job on my own out of personal volution and not to be handled as disident.Honestly I appreciate your response and promise you will not regret being positively minded.
I am still members of the bank panel that will be charged to investigate the whole process of this inheritance fund transfer.We are to prepare the proof of kinship right here in the bank with the personal information that i have. I do not want to have any hitch in this transaction as a result of delays and in the process jeopardise the business.I have been in the banking profession for years and know what can make a transaction of this kind to backfire.
This will mean toying with my career which i do not want to do. You will send your application by fax or email to the bank which will be detailed in the text of the application that will be sent to you later as soon as i receive your reply.As Soon as your application is received, it will be processed and you will in turn receive your acknowledgement letter from the bank showing the receipt of your application.
The bank will stipulate in the acknowledgement letter the conditions with which this fund shall be swift transferred to your designated account in your country or as the case may be.Please take your time and decide if it is acceptable to you. Otherwise, we will not want to start at all as it will complicate issues if we should start processing everything in your name for you to come up with a negative reaction later due to these conditions not well explained to you at this time.Please I will still want us to continue as friends even if there is no possibility for you to work with me in this regard.
Now I think everything should be very clear to you.I am very interested in getting this transaction successfully concluded within 10 banking days from the day of approval till transfer date of confirmation in your account.
Thus,this transaction as you already know is 100% riskfree and will never involve any one along the line if only you are ready to follow the guidelines.Do not reply any letter to the bank without sending me a copy of such letter for review to avoid mistakes that may effect this transaction. All you need to do is to understand that the watchword is confidentiality and trust.Do not expose this to friends or people to protect this transaction from suffering a hitch anywhere along the line.
All i need is your maximium cooperation and maturity to see that we finally smile together as one in few days from now. The text of the application will be sent to you immediately i receive your reply.I will not fail to show a great appreciation for your approach to me.I believe that we can iron out issues and I have seen we can by the grace of God.
I am married to a lovely wife and blessed with three kids,three girls.My wife RUTH is a nurse and works with the general hosipital here in Lome.We all will by GOD'S Grace come over to your country as soon as this fund is transferred to your account
Looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
Thank you and God bless.
Yours Sincerely,
Dr,Usman Ibrahim
