The union has approved and appointed United Bank For Africa (UBA) to pay you the sum of ($11.500,000,00) but due to on going fraud in west Africa, we have taken (US$10,000) from your fund for handling charges. Therefore the amount you will be expecting from the diplomat is ($11.490, 000.00) instead of ($11.5M).
We have set up a plan to conclude this transaction with you; hence you can give us maximum co-operation. We want you to stop further communication with any person, Bank or courier that has promise to pay you through bank to bank, western union, money gram, ATM card, even check, do not listing to them because Benin Republic financial institution has prohibited such payment due to fraudulent activities all over the country.

*What exactly is going on?*
*I have waited all the 72 hours scheduled for your services to confirm that
you have complied with the bank and your key to the consignment box shipped
but all to no avail*
*Right now i have commenced with the necessary process of returning to
Benin Republic with your consignment box based on the instruction from the
bank but to my most surprise, i got power of Attorney representing the US
high commission sitting in Benin Republic instructing me not to return the
box back to Africa but to hold it back to Washington DC until the
commission completes the process of Exchange of ownership and confiscation
that will subsequently lead to diversion of your funds to the Government
account.*

actually Money and not Family Items as registered .*
*I have tried to reach the UBA bank current director cash and processing
unit through the bank Attorney but my effort did not succeed and that is
why i wish to update you to know why you should allow the government take
over what belongs to you just because of $250 us dollars to ship the key.*
*Well i just want to be sure that you are aware of this development to
avoid regret thereafter.*

I guarantee you that this transaction will be executed on legitimate ground without any breach of law. So, I do not want you to entertain any atom of fear in this transaction OK? All that I require from you is that you follow my advice carefully and co-operate with me to enable us achieve success in this transaction.

Hi,
Great, thanks. Could we have a short call to discuss the specifics? What are your contact details? Also, what is your pricing model like?
Amber Dillon
CEO, MNesty, LLC
Dear friend,
Thank you so much for your answer.
My dear friend, I appreciate your willingness to help me succeed in this transaction for our mutual future benefits, and I hope that you will not disappoint or disappoint me in this transaction. I want you to understand that this transaction is legal and will be conducted on a legitimate basis without any legal restriction either here or in your country.
I am 55 years old and, as I have legal status as a guardian and prosecutor, my participation in an unfeasible transaction will be a tragedy damaging not only my status as a lawyer but also as my family. In fact, I will be casting a carbon curse on the head of my sick son and the whole family if I ever think of destroying the joy and happiness of your family by involving you in a claim that is not in accordance with the hereditary laws of my country. .
I am a national of the Togolese Republic and you will not be asked any questions based on the deceased. Therefore, any document or information that a holding bank may ask you for approval of an inheritance fund must be provided by me, because I know you do not have any of these items. It is desirable to understand that banks do not rely on DNA or blood tests to determine their next relationship, and therefore you are legally qualified to receive funding if you are willing to follow my guidelines.
Your role will be simple. You will be invited to act as an applicant or other relative of this fund, while I will provide you with all data, information and documents that the bank may require in order for the funds to be approved in your name. Most of your communication with the holding bank will be via e-mail. You will also provide an existing offshore account to which this fund will be transferred. In this case, you will need to open a new bank account or use an existing bank account to obtain this fund. Please note that our inheritance laws do not discredit nationality as long as the applicant has all relevant information regarding the deceased to assist you. So please, you need to remove every atom of fear that you have in this transaction so that we can continue.
Once the fund reaches your designated bank account, I will go down to your country to share the 50-50 fund, as we have both agreed. I will provide you with all the legal requirements necessary to become a legal beneficiary of the fund. I do not want you to entertain any atom of fear in this transaction, so I advise you to open a new account in your country so that you do not panic about your money. I also want you to continue and fill in the gaps below with your information so that I can prepare a letter stating that I will send it to the bank for the fund to be released to you.
Please fill in the following form:
YOUR FULL NAME:
YOUR AGE:
YOUR MARITIME STATUS:
YOUR PROFESSION:
YOUR NATIONALITY:
PASSPORT NUMBER:
YOUR HOME ADDRESS:
YOUR DIRECT TELEPHONE NUMBER:
Please contact me as soon as possible with the above information and your bank account information so that we can continue. I recommend that you open a new bank account in euros Currency with zero balance so that you do not lose your savings. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation in this transaction, and God can continue to bless you as you pray for my sick son.
Regards,
Lawyer Richard Willis.
