Attn:Dear Customer Happy New Year,

I have been planning on how to get things being in order to you.Right now
everything has been completed and this is to let you know that I have finalized
with the bank manager,to credit your ($900,000.00 USD) to an ATM VISA CARD.So
your inherited funds of ($900,000.00 USD) has been converted and credited to
an ATM VISA CARD.

This is to bring to your notice that I have paid the re-activation fee and the
delivery of your ATM VISA CARD. I paid it because the ATM Card worth of
$900,000.00 USD will expire soon and when it expires, the whole money will go
into Federal Government treasury account in my country here,so because of that
I decided to help you pay off the money so that the ATM Card fund will
not expire,
and I’m convinced that when you receive your ATM VISA Card that you
must pay me back
all my money and even compensate me for helping you.Now I want you to
contact the ATM card office with your home /office address that you
prefer for the delivery to be made
so that they can deliver your ATM Visa Card to your designated address
in your country
without any delay.

Like I stated earlier,The delivery charges has been paid but I did not pay
their official keeping fees because they refused. They refused,the reason is
that they do not know when you are going to contact them and the
demur-rage might
have increased. They told me that their keeping fees is $25 per
day,while I deposited
it today.

Below is the Contact Information of the ATM office,

Contact Person: Mr.Robert Atu
Office Email: (infomyoffiice354@gmail.com)
Phone number: +229-98181108

Contact them today to avoid increase of their keeping fees and let me know once
you receive your ATM Visa card. Thanks and remain bless

Best Regards.

Mr Ben John
