your behalf that funds are to be drawn from a registered bank within the
United States Of America so as to enable you cash the check instantly without
any delay, henceforth the stated amount of $800,000.00 US Dollars has been
deposited with
Bank Of America.
We have completed this investigation and you are hereby approved to receive
the winning prize as we have verified the entire transaction to be Safe and
100% risk free, due to the fact that the funds have been deposited at Bank Of

have tried our possible best to indicate that this $400.00 should be deducted
from your winning prize but we found out that the funds have already been
deposited at Bank Of America and cannot be accessed by anyone apart from you
