Attn
My name is Reverend Father Faure Clinton, I wish to inform you that the Lawyer to Late Mrs. Stella Mayo contacted me on October 12th 2006 to inform me that Mrs. Stella Mayo Left a box with the Security company which contains about $89 Million Dollars, and made me to understand that you were purpose to claim this money from the Security company since Mrs. Stella Mayo WILL it on your flavor. But unfortunately, you could not meet up with the Security company demands for fee before the box will be released to you.
The Lawyer told me that he made a promise to Mrs. Stella Mayo before she died that he will ensure that the money is received from the security company and that nothing will make the box to be abandoned to the Security company, He ask me to claim the box from the security company so that the security company do not cease the box.
He gave me the contact of the security company and I did contact the Security company and they demanded for my Address, phone and fax number, and told me that before they will release the box to us the church, we are to pay the sum of $ 65,000:00 .I contacted the Lawyer about this and he gave me the advise to comply with the security company and ensure the security company releases the box to me.
We had a Launching on two Sundays and were able to raise this money before they could release the box to us. To God be the glory we paid this money to the account that the security company gave to us and they release the box to us, we have started some church projects in some countries with this money, and I called the Lawyer on the phone and informed him that the Lord have done it and that we have received the box from the Security company.
But the Lawyer told me that by right, we are not the right person that Mrs. Stella WILL the box to but you, and have asked us now to show gratitude by compensating you who is the rightful beneficiary so that the effort that you made already will not be in vain.
Because of this, I have left $2.5 Million with the Citi bank of Nigeria and want you now to contact the Citi bank to claim this money as it is now on your favor.
You are to Contact Mr. Harry Duke and the email is
citi_bank_remmitancedept@yahoo.com
Contact the bank now for the release of this money to your bank account. Let me know as soon as you receive the money from the bank.
Thank you and God Bless you.
Thanks,
Rev Faure Clinton.
