Subject: UNPAID COMPENSATION/INHERITANCE FUND SUM.
Attention: Fund Beneficary,
My name is Mr Ibrahim Lamorde, Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in Nigeria. This agency is saddled with the responsibility of checking and arresting criminal elements in Nigeria's Government parastatals and civil services, who fail to execute contracts awarded to them and those who launder Government funds to off-shore bank accounts abroad for their personal use.
Recently, our scope of operation has been widened to include the arrest of internet fraudsters(also known as 419ners) in the Nigerian society who impersonate real Government officials in order to help make their scam appear legimate for the single purpose of defrauding unsuspecting members of the internet/general public. We have been able to make large scale arrests and have been successful in seizing, confiscating, and freezing properties and bank accounts running into millions of dollars belonging to these apprehended fraudsters.
This Commission is now working on modalities to bring restitution to you and other victims of this unwholesome practice of a few criminally minded Nigerian/African individuals who have decided to tarnish the image of our nation. If we are in contact with the true fund beneficiary/scam victim, do inform us accordingly and please be wary of impersonators who claim to be me because they mean no good. Your prompt response will be duly attended to.
Sincerely,
Mr Ibrahim Lamorde,
Chairman,
EFCC.
