Dear Sir/Madam
I have been waiting for you since to come down here and pick your Bank Draft
but did not hear from you since that time then I went and deposited the
Draft with INTERNATIONAL Bank Plc here in Nigeria, because I traveled to
Japan to see my boss and will not come back till next month end. I have
arranged with them to make your payment to you with their new ATM MASTER
CARD of $6.5 million US dollars which you can use to withdraw your money in
any ATM MACHINE around the globe. You have to contact the International Bank
Plc with your full contact informations such as follows.

contacted him.

DIRECTOR, ATM CARD PAYMENT DEPARTMENT INTERNATIONL
I have already paid for the processing and delivery charges.The only Money
that you are going to pay to them is only $150 Dollars which they will use
to obtain the Affidavit Of Ownership from the Federal High Court Of Nigeria.
So try to contact them and ask them how you will send the $150 to receive
your atm card,please do urgent and contact them as soon as possible to
quicken the confirmation of your card before your draft gets Expired . Let
me know as soon as you receive your Atm Card of $6.5million us dollars.
Thanks and God bless.
