They have arranged your payment through swift card payment center Asia Pacific, this CARD center will send you an ATM CARD which you will use to withdraw your money in any CARD machine in any part of the world, but the maximum is $1,500 Per-hour and you can withdraw $20.000 Per-day.

I have paid for the processing and delivery charges, the only money that you are going to pay to them is only $375 dollars which they will use to obtain the affidevit of onwership from the federal high court of Benin Republic. Try to contact them as soon as possible to quicken the processing of your card before your draft gets expired . Let me know as soon as you receive your card. Waiting for your respond. Thanks,
