Subject: Dearest Beloved,
Dearest Beloved,
I am so surprised over your silence regarding to your inheritance, following
your non compliance to my earlier mail to you for the pasted ONE MONTH
regarding to your late relative Engr.Cruz who died in 2002.
I wish to notify you that the governing council of our Bank has put up a
notice for immediate payment of this fund and as such you are entitled to
your late relative fund which has accrued to US$7,753,000.00 Million over
years deposited with our branch.
On receipt of your response with your full details i will properly guide you
on the procedure we will embark on to facilitate the easy release of this
funds for our mutual benefit.
Remain blessed.
Sam Codd
