Subject: RECOMFIRM YOUR CONTACT ADDRESS DEAR !!!!!!!!
Hello Dear,
How are you today and your family hope all is well,i know you will be
waiting the arrival of your Total of the $ 2.5million Cash Payment
Compasation which I was to sent to you,but there is problem in sending it,
I have sent it through Global Express Courier & Security Company but they
return it back to Benin Saying that the address was not correct and that
they couldn't get to your destination I think there is a mistake in the
address you give to me and that has cost me a lot of strenght, but I thank
God that it return back safely.
The only things now is to resend your full contact address again to the
Director of the Company Mr. MaxWil Shargan Email- (
globalexpressglobalexpress28@gmail.com ) immediately or call +229-93697920
For the purpose of clarification,you are advised to reconfirm your Full
Names/Direct Telephone Numbers/Physical Address with Zip Code/Age/Sex and
Pass Port so that there will be no error during the delivery of the funds to
you again in your country of residence.
Probably $185 dollar that you will sent to them only being Security Keeping
Fee of the Returning Box so far.and don't let them know the content of the
Box to avoid delay, use CODE (FXX081) as Suject while writing to them its
your registerd Number.
Best Regards
DR Promise Mike
