1818 H Street, NW Washington, DC 20433
UNITED STATES
Tel : (202) 473-1000

Dear Authentic Beneficiary,

I once again write to let you know that due to the inability of the banks initially handling your payment to complete your transaction and transfer your funds and that of other beneficiaries, the United Nations have approved that the World Bank should take over your payment and see that you duly receive your funds.

I have paid all the beneficiaries that their name is on my file remaining your own payment.

I have completed processing your payment/funds transfer valued US$15,000.000(Fifteen Million United States Dollars)

This means your funds transfer is ready.

I have informed you in my previous email that the only thing needed for a legal/legitimate transfer of your funds into your account is a Funds Transfer Approval Clearance Certificate(F.T.A.C.C) obtainable from the Headquarters of the United Nations here in the United States.

This Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate frees your funds from Money Laundering and no Authority will stop your funds from reflecting in your account once it is transferred.

This Clearance from the United Nations office will also make all the Financial Monetary Investigation Agencies anywhere in the World to allow your funds to reflect in your account once transferred.

You are required to urgently pay for the cost of issuance of the Funds Transfer Approval Clearance Certificate(F.T.A.C.C) so that it will be issued on your behalf and I will transfer your US$15 Million into your account.

The United Nations Authority instructed that the issuance fee for the Funds Transfer Approval Clearance Certificate MUST be paid and document obtained before the transfer of your US$15 Million.

The issuance fee of the Funds Transfer Approval Clearance Certificate is US$970 only.

I will advise you to urgently pay for the Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate. to avoid any delay in transferring your US$15 Million into your bank account.

We can not deduct any fee from your principal amount of US$15 Million to pay for the Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate in accordance with the existing/constituted bank laws.

Your full amount of US$15 Million is what will be transferred to you.

You are therefore advised to immediately pay the US$970 and the Funds Transfer Approval Clearance Certificate(F.T.A.C.C) will be obtained on your behalf and I will immediately transfer your funds into your above designated account.

This payment MUST be made without delay as directed by the International Monetary Funds and the United Nations and agreed by the World bank.

You have the opportunity to receive your funds this very time.

Upon your request, I will send you information you will use to pay the US$970 for the Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate fee.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Mr. David Malpass
President World Bank
THE WORLD BANK HEADQUARTERS
1818 H Street, NW Washington, DC 20433 USA
