TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.
I am Mr. Coufer.G. Jersey. I am the Director Of Foreign Transfer Department Of Packwaste Bank here in United Kingdom.
I am writing you this E-mail is accordant to your funds of 15.5 Million Dollars that was transferred into this bank from our correspondent Bank in Nigeria, which is Called Union Bank Of Nigeria. Of which was transferred in your favor as the beneficiary of the funds that you are the next of kin beneficiary to one late Mr. James Becker, which his personal assistant is called Mr. Godwin.
This money was transferred into our humble office from our correspondent Bank as it was stated above and must be transferred to you immediately we get a response from you regarding this transaction.
As it was stated from our correspondent bank in Nigeria, they said you were supposed to get some documents that were remaining to finalize the transfer and you could not get back to them with it but, Mr. Godwin did some few weeks ago. After he forwarded this documents into their office there in Nigeria, they have not heard from him again and the Bank made proper arrangement and investigation to locate him for the claim of this money because he was as well as your Barrister according to the bank, the outcome of the investigation comes out that Mr. Godwin is in a sick bed at this particular moment but the Bank could not believe that because he was the person that forwarded to the documents to them, and the whole issue was so confusing that the bank had to ask for the hospital that he is lying on and the investigation comes out to be true.
After the whole discussion with him at the hospital with our Bank Representatives, he stated that the whole money belongs to you as the beneficiary of his late client Mr. James Becker that the Bank finds out to be true because you also presented yourself before the silence from you, and he stated that your money should be released to you immediately because his condition at the moment is harzard as he couldn?t say anything than this which the Bank Representative heard from him.
This has brought to the order that has made the Bank transferred the funds into our own Bank here in United Kingdom and we must release this huge amount of money to you as soon as we hear from you.
The account information of which the money was in before in Nigeria is 326AXAQ5778, swift code- 56479923, routine- 44638 and the Bank name is Union Bank Of Nigeria, which you know better than I do. The Validity Associated Pin (VAP) of this transfer is 54Q; Modality Officiating Schedule is (MOS) (booklet)
You are expected to get bank to this humble office with your full information including your directly phone number and the account information which you will like this money to be finally released into so that the transfer could commence.
I await your response.
Yours truly,
Mr. Coufer.G. Jersey.
Director Of Foreign Transfer Department.
