- i, am mrs. paula barrett, the manager foreign operation remittance
department of hsbc bank london of uk. this is to bring to your notice
that my office has taking over all the money transaction originated
from any part of african and europe countries as contract payment,
fund inheritance or lottery winning due to aquthorized/incapability
of financial institutions/security companies in releasing such huge
sum of money due to fraud, terrorist and money laundry activities
going onworld wide. the world bank group has mandated the hsbc bank
via my office to release funds to beneficiaries through tele banking
transfer, hence your name appears as one of the fund beneficiaries
whom their fund was successfully cleared recently from terrorist and
money laundry and your money will be released to you through
tele-banking that is the only way you would receive your money to
avoid paying excess charges. as regards to this arrangement, you are
advised to contactthe telex director mrs. elspeth schwenk through
her direct email; (mrs. [protected]@live.com) it to transfer your
fund into your bank account that you would provide. you are
therefore advised to forward your direct telephone numbers, your
complete name and your mailing address, age/marital status and
occupation/position to mrs. elspeth schwenk for immediate release of
your thirty million dollars only (us$30, 000, 000.00). note that this
payment shall follow all due legal proceedings before it will be
released to your bank account. therefore be aware that your fund has
obtained all the clearance to be released to you.

the mail details being given to me by mr.Martin Johonson are given below

Attention: Vishwanath Ambekar,
The World Bank authorised that the fund should be delivered to you in cash.Not by transfer.
This is to inform you that I have received your credentials, but you still need to send your international passport photo page for proper identification.This is to enable the delivery agent of the Avonix Diplomatic Courier Service identify you immediately he arrives in your country.
Do that as soon as possible so that I can submit the fund in question to the Avonix Diplomatic Courier Service for onward delivery to you.
Call me as soon as you send it via these numbers +[protected] or
+[protected]
Looking forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Regards,
Foreign Account Department Manager.
Martin Johnson.

FROM MIRIAM STEVE

Dear
I am writing this letter in confidence believing that it is the wish of God to meet with you since we have not met before. Honestly am glad to know you, but God knows you better and he knows why he has directed me to you at this point in time so do not be afraid. I saw your profile very interesting; you seem so sincere and humble as a parents I write this mail with painful sorrow in my heart.
My name is Miriam Steve. I was born in Tennessee United State of America and am contacting you because I don’t have any other option than to tell you as I was touched to open up to you, I am married to Mr. Steve Pope who worked with Libyan embassy in London for ten years before he died in the year 2008. we were married for so many years without a child. I decided to start to start a social work here. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only 6 years.

Since his death I decided not to remarry again, when my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US $ 1.9m (One Million Nine hundred thousand dollars) in a Bank in Canada square London E/14 5HQ, presently this money is still in Bank. He made this money available for Social Work and the orphanage.

Recently, my doctor told me that I would not last for the period of seven months due to cancer problem. Whoever that wants to serve God must serve him in spirit and truth because God is the most high; please always be prayerful all through your life.
The one that disturbs me most is my cancer sickness. Having known my condition I decided to hand you over this money and the gold to take care of the less-privileged people, you will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want you to take 40 percent of the total money for your personal use while 60% of the money will go to charity" people in the street and helping the orphanage.
I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not good not even good at all because they are the one that responsible for the death of my late husband in other to have all my late husband properties and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by those that conspired for his death. I grew up as an orphan and I don't have anybody as my family member, just to Endeavor that the name of God is maintained. I am doing this so that God will forgive my sins and accept my soul because this sickness has suffered me so much.

I want somebody that will use this fund according to the desire of my late husband to help less privileged people, orphanages, widows and propagating the word of God. I took this decision because I don’t have any child that will inherit this fund, and I don’t want in away where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision to hand you over this Fund.
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I want you to always remember me in your daily prayers because of my upcoming Cancer Surgery.

Write back as soon as possible any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for this same purpose, hoping to read from you ASAP.

God bless you as you listing to the voice of reasoning

Your Sister,
