Dear Friend,Greeting and how are doing? Based on our last correspondence and my inability to reply back your last mail was as a result that I traveled out of my vicinity to a local area where I had no access to Internet communication and hence I couldn't reply back.Good news! Upon my arrival home to check my mail, I discovered an already sent mail from One Mr. Gordon Pell, who claims to be the Manager of affiliated bank responsible for our payment informing me that our funds is duly processed and approved checkment thereafter asking me to reconfirm your account details, Cell/Telephone numbers and contact address but quite unfortunate before I traveled, I deleted all my past correspondent with you for security reasons, in core, I need you to reconfirmation the requested info's as demanded respectively which I believe will enhance smooth transfer of our funds US$18. 2M to your nominated bank account without delay this time around. According to Mr, Gorden Pell who informed me
that the our funds is going to be transferred batch by batch US$5M until the money is all finally confired in your nominated bank account.Have a wonderful day and looking forward to your urgent response.Regards,Panchal
