OUTSTANDING PAYMENT NOTIFICATION
Good day
Your Long overdue Payment.
I saw your email ( in the Central Computer among the list of unpaid
contractors, inheritance next of kin and lotto beneficiaries that was
originated from Africa, Europe, Asia Plus Middle east, Americans ) among the
list of individuals and companies that your unpaid fund has been located in
the bank
Your email appeared among the beneficiaries, who will receive a part-payment
of your contractual sum and has been approved already for months.You are
requested to get back to me for more direction and instruction on how to
receive your fund. However, we received an email from one Mr.Virgle Lee
Samples who told us that he is your next of kinand that you died in a car
accident last week. He has also submitted his account for us to transfer the
fund to him including his International passport,we want to hear from you
before we can make the transfer to confirm if you are dead or not.
Once again, I apologize to you on behalf Of IMF (International Monetary
Fund) for failure to pay your funds in time, which according to records in
the system had been long overdue.
Yours Sincerely,
Mr.Rodrigo De Rato.
