Dear MS TUGENDA THEISS
Be informed that I am right now in the air port this morning. I have to stop at the Shadegg airport so that I can deliver luggages to our customers in the airport
Be informed that you are required to pay the sum of US$ 1,600 so that I can clear the consignment in the custom office. Because the consignment is in the custom office now.
You can come down with the money so that we pay for the clearance charges or you forward the money to me through money gram intonation so that I pay for the clearance charges of the consignment for them to release the consignment to me to deliver to your giving address
Call me on this phone number for more information and clarification
The number is +33 626 88 88 75
Treat urgent
