Attn: Dear Friend,
Sequel to the secretive arrangement in regards of the shipment of your contract sum,
I wish to inform you that all necessary modalities have been automatically concluded and have left Nigeria to London via your Country today by Express Cargo Flight.
Note carefully the content of the crate is "MONEY" but I did not disclose it to the Courier Services as Money,rather I informed them that the crate contain Vital "DIPLOMATIC DOCUMENTS" belonging to my client (that´s you).
Furthermore,the weight of the consignment is 220kg but I manage to pay 120kg, which cost US$95,600.00. On no account should you disclose the content of the crate with the Diplomatic Courier Services for fear of betrayal. So do not allow them to know that the content is money.
In the meantime, Contact the Director: Mr. williams , gfinance company and Diplomatic Company Plc London. Tel: 447024075098; Email: [gfinancecompany@yahoo.com] to know the actual situation with the consignment and also give them your address where the consignment will be delivered and then get back to me as soon as possible so that I can give you the shipment document.
E-mail to frank ibe. [info_frank44@yahoo.co.uk]
Meanwhile,I will be coming over to your country immediately the consignment arrives in your Country for my 50% share. Congrats and remain blessed.
Best Regards,
Yours faithfully,
