*Dear Good Friend, Read My Mail And Contact FedEx Express Courier Services
**For Your Bank Draft.
How are you today? Hope all is well with you and your family?,I have been
waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirm-able Bank Draft of
$3.7M United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since for a couple
of weeks now.Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired or
getting near to expire and Mr.John Adams the Director Bank of Africa told me
that before the draft will get to your hand that it will expire. So I told
him to cash the $3,700.000 USD UNITED STATES DOLLARS to cash payment to
avoid loosing this funds under expiration as I will be out of the country
for 7 Months Course and I will not come back till ending of November 2008.*

What you have to do now is to contact **FedEx Express Courier Services* *as
soon as possible to know when they will deliver your Consignment to you
because of the expiring date. For your information, I have paid for the
delivering Charge and Insurance premium.The only money you will send to the
FedEx Express Courier Services* *to deliver your Consignment direct to your
Address in your country is $130.00 only being Security Keeping Fee of
the **FedEx
Express Courier Services* *so far. Again, don't be deceived by any body to
pay any other money except $130.00. I would have paid that but they said no
because they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurage.
So you have to contact **FedEx Express Courier Services* *now for the
delivery of your Consignment with their email address on: (**

Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your address and direct telephone
number to them again to avoid any mistake on the delivery of the
package, and ask them to give you the tracking number to enable you track
your package over there and know when it will get to your address. Finally,
make sure you indicate this CODE (CP0081) which will prove that you are the
owner of the package deposited in their company. Also note that I registered
it as a BOX Of Africa Arts Materials. They did not know the contents was
money. This is to avoid them delaying with the BOX.
The information's that you will provide to them is as thus:
1) Your Full Name And Address
2) Your Age
3) Your Country
4) Your Marital Status
5) Your Occupation/Profession
