Attn: Client,
This is an official notification of funds deposited in your name. Two months ago a fellow came to our office and informs us that he knew you and he wish to give out part of his estates worth US$22,762,800.00 to you.
We at first thought it was a joke until we received the documents for these assets, which came all in shares and demand that we dispose of them and have the money (cash) transferred to you. He made us sign a Non Circumvention and Non Disclosure Agreement against the disclosure of his identity to you. The Non Circumvention and Non Disclosure Agreement signed with the benefactor mandates us to fully divulge and disclose the benefactor's identity 18 months after you, the beneficiary, has received the funds.
This particular fellow is presently out of reach to us but we have disposed of the shares through a stockbroker and have the money transferred to our account for further transfer to you. The last we spoke to him was a month and a week ago when he called our office and we informed him that we have disposed of the shares and transferred the cash to our account and now waiting contact information of the beneficiary (You). He then gave us your name and contact information.
We therefore decided to contact you via email so that we can verify and confirmed that the information you will send us is true and concordance with what we have in our data.
The information should therefore be sent in the manner stated below so as to ensure that no mistake is made.
Your Full Name: _____________________
Your Complete Address (Physical Address with Zip
Code)__________________________
Date of Birth (Day/Month/Year):___________________
Direct Telephone/Mobile Number: ___________________________
Fax Number:_______________________________________
Complete the above and send back to me as soon as possible.
Congratulations in advance.
Thank you and I sincerely remain.
