DATE: 16/11/2010.
Dear
Beneficiary/Owner
We received an e-mail from ALFRED H. TURRENTINE JR who forwarded his
address, saying that you gave him the (Power of Attorney to Claim) your
consignment which was registered here in New York Facility in your name with
REF: E8R4X0F7IC. The U.S Embassy in Benin Republic where your consignment was
shipped from have done proper verifications on the reason for the delay in
delivery and have intervened and resolved that all clearing charges should be
waived, ONLY that the true owner have to obtain and forward to us a sworn
affidavit from the High Court of Benin to certify the true source of fund and
purpose of payment for which this fund is meant for. The secretary to the U.S
Ambassador in Benin have also liaised with the Protocol Officer of the Benin
High Court and the said affidavit will be issued to you at a reasonable cost of
$125.50c.
ALFRED H. TURRENTINE JR has also paid the
$125.50c but we sent the money back to him pending when we confirm and verify
his claim from you.
Further on this matter, Please get back to us and
clarify these important issues once and for all.
i. Did you give anyone
Power of Attorney to take delivery of this consignment on your
behalf?
ii. If no, how come he knows about this consignment, the
Reference CODE and the waiver resolution from our Embassy in Benin and
instructions to obtain an affidavit for only $125.50 to release the
consignment.
Note: that this is a crucial matter and it has to be dealt
with prudently.
In the light of this, we need to hear from you first to
be sure that you are the one who sent this person to represent you before we can
accept any form of payment from him. It is un-ethical, illegal and
unconstitutional to deal with anyone on your behalf without seeking for your
consent as the true beneficiary of the Consignment.
Your are advise to
get back to us within 24 hours before we assume you are aware of this
development and instruct him to go ahead and pay the required charges $125.50c
and have the consignment delivered to him.
Here is the message we
received from ALFRED H. TURRENTINE JR to claim your
consignment.
