from the Desk of: Mr. Chris Morgan
Attn: Beneficiary
RE: OVER DUE CONTRACT/INHERITANCE /LOTTERY PAYMENT.
This is to notify all beneficiaries owed by the Government of Senegal, Ivory Coast,Ghana,Nigeria,Togo who are member states of the E.C.O.W.A.S from contract, inheritance and lottery payment which are due from these countries of the E.C.O.W.A.S.
However, investigations carried out by the World Bank Auditors has confirmed that most beneficiaries are being asked to pay certain irrelevant charges by the Central Bank of this E.C.O.W.A.S countries and other Government Financial Institutions, therefore making it very difficult for beneficiaries to receive their payment which is contrary to Section "37" Subsection "C" of the Article XII of Banks and other financial decree of 1995 as amended in 1998.
In view of this, the Governing Board of the World Bank has directed the ZENITH BANK PLC which is the primary banker's of the E.C.O.W.A.S to scrutinize and oversee an immediate release of such payments that has met the requirements . Any beneficiary certified OK will receive his / her fund within four (4) working days from the date of the final authentication of his / her contractual date.
It is also interesting to inform you that in order to carry out deductions of official fees from there contract/inheritance and lottery funds, such as Cost of Transfers (COT), Security Deposit (SD) and other taxable charges, you will be required to obtain the FEES DEDUCTION FORM ECO 212 from the E.C.O.W.A.S authority so as to empower this board to carry out such deduction from your total funds before final remittance.
Furthermore, certification and unconditional payment release orders has been vested on this board and it involves payment from our statutory foreign reserves of International Capital Markets (ICM) loan from (IMF) and the World Bank respectively. It is of vital international financial interest that all payments under this dispensation have been bestowed on the World Bank for immediate settlements.
On behalf of the government of these E.C.O.W.A.S countries, this body regrets any inconveniences this delay might have caused your good self.
You are hereby finally advised to stop all further communications with any agents, group of people or any Government bodies in respect of your
payment.
