Dear Brother VICTIMNAME,
Longest time Hope you are fine?
I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting the fund transferred under the cooperation of a new partner from PARAGUAY. Presently in PARAGUAY for investment projects with my partner. Meanwhile, I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring those funds despite that it failed us some how.
Now contact my secretary, his name is Mr Micheal Rear. and his private email address is (mic_rear@myway.com). Ask him to send you the total amount of $800,000.00 which I kept for your compensation for all the past efforts and attempts to assist me in this matter. I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So feel free and get in touched with my secretary Mr Micheal Rear. Instruct him where to send the amount to you.
Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the joy after all the suffers at that time. At the moment, i am very busy here because of the investment projects which me and the new partner are having at hand, finally, remember that I had forwarded instruction to the secretary on your behalf to receive that money, so feel free to get in touch with him and he will send the amount to you without any delay. I do not check my emails currently because of the activity athand in PARAGUAY..
GOOD LUCK.
Best Regards,
MR DAWSON ZIDDIE.
