ATTN:PAYMENT NOTIFICATION!
This is to bring to your notice that, I have paid the re-activation and the
delivery of your ATM CARD.I paid it because the ATM CARD 8119 worth
$1,500,000.00 USD has less three days to expire and when it expires the
money will go into Government reserve.With that I decided to help you pay
the money so that the ATM CARD will not expire,because I know when you get
your ATM CARD definitely you must compensate me.
Now your ATM CARD has been deposited with Impex Courier for delievry so i
want you to contact Impex Courier Company with your Full Contact
informations so that they can deliver your ATM CARD to your designated
address without any delay. Like i stated earlier, The delivery charges has
been paid but i did not pay their official keeping fees since they
refused.Reasons for their refusal is because they do not know when you are
going to contact them. They told me that their keeping fee is $25 per day
and i deposited it on Thuesday this week.
