Attn: Sir/Madam,
We are obliged to inform you that after we have completed the process
of releasing your funds to you, we now received a Death Certificate,
certifying that you were death according to one Mr. David Jones, who
claims to be your representative, and he now requested that your funds
should be transferred to a Swiss account he provided.
But however, due to the suspicious nature of his claims, we therefore
decided to write you to know if really you were dead as said by the so
called Mr. David Jones, who claims to be your representative.
So please if you were still alive, you should provide the following
information for us to be sure.
1) Your full name
2) Your residential address
3) Your telephone number
4) Your occupation
Be notified that if we do not hear from you within the next 7 days, we
shall assume you were dead as claimed by your representative, and we
would then transfer the funds to his Swiss account as he desire.
All the obligations have been met and the funds are ready for transfer
to the account now.
Awaiting your urgent response to this effect
Yours faithfully.
Mrs. comfort balogun.
