ATTN:Beneficiary . PAYMENT FILE NUMBER: A

Dear Sir,

Release/Transfer Notice for your due Funds (US$7,500,000:00).

Payment File No: A..

24Hrs Service

It is very important that the recipient of this Letter should call this office in order to confirm it to us that this very Letter was received by the true beneficiary .

You are advised to read this Letter very carefully because every paragraph explains what you need to know about the Release and Transfer of your due Funds.

At this point, we wish to remind you to stop all further contact with any person or person(s) whom is not recommended by this Ministry. Our Intelligence Monitoring Unit (I.M.U), Code of Conduct Bureau, Legal Unit and The Nigerian Police Force (N.P.F) have already apprehended some of those suspects whom attempted to divert your Funds.

You are advised to stop all further contact with any office(s) or person(s) because they are WANTED criminal suspects.

As the honourable Minister of Nigeria, I work on behalf of the Paying Bank of Nigeria (Platinum Habib Bank) under the supervision of the honourable President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria.

We have acknowledged your previous email response and to that effect we are glad to announce it to you today that the honourable President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Accountant General of the Federation have collectively Approved and signed the Order to Release and Transfer being the certified documentation authorizing us (The Federal Ministry of Finance) to credit your nominated Bank Account..

A copy of the Order to Release and Transfer have been forwarded to our international remittance department for the onward crediting of your Funds.

In other words, we put it to you that we are ready to remit your said Funds into your choiced Bank Account because we have a 3-4working days time constrain to Pay-off each beneficiary short-listed to be Paid by this Ministry. Our Legal Unit have already reviewed your Payment Files and they have passed it on to my desk for me to Pay you accordingly, so be rest assured that you will receive your due Funds as soon as possible. Officially, you will receive your due Funds via an "Electronic Wire Transfer" which will enable your Funds reflect in your choiced Bank Account within 48hrs after effect. This mode of Payment is defined as one of the best and safest mode to remit huge Funds internationally as it is absolutely different from the usual swift transfer which takes longer time. Most Banks within the United States of America, Europe and other developed countries operate with the "Electronic Wire Transfer" for international transfers because it is a recent innovation in the Banking industry.

Certainly we shall transfer your valued US$7,500,000:00 from the Sundry/Suspense Account of the Federal Government of Nigeria being the official Account for international/foreign Payments/debts. A Sundry/Suspense Account can be defined as a secret Account owned by a government and operated by certain assigned government officials being the authorized signatories whom must sign before Funds can be remitted from such account. For this very account no form of direct withdrawals can be made from it except a Bank to Bank wire transfer which must be Approved by the honourable President being the principal signatory to the account.

Consequent to the fact that I am responsible to Pay you, it is still my duty to enligthen you on the accurate steps to take in order for you to gain full possession of this said Funds being Approved in your name.

In the combat against fraud, Funds divertion and Funds delay, we have re-lenghtly ensured that several foreign beneficiaries have been Paid accordingly in order to retain and rekindle our country's reputation on the global map because this recent government dispensation is focused and targeted to relieve all foreign debts as mandated by The Senate, The National House of Assembly, The Federal Executive Council (F.E.C), Code of Conduct Bureau and The Federal Ministry of Finance (F.M.F). Already, a lot of foreign beneficiaries have been Paid by this Ministry so your's will not be an exception considering the fact that the honourable President have Approved your due Funds today dated 17th July 2010.

In accordance to section (1) paragraph 9 of the Settlement Edict Law of The Federal Republic of Nigeria of 1992, it is imperative that you provide us with the below listed information so that we can Pay you.

1. Bank Name and Address.
2.. Bank Account Number.
3. Account Holder's Full Name.
4. Routing Number/Swift Code (very important).
5. Your Residential Address.
6. Your mobile or home telephone Number.
7. A form of identification (I.D Card or Driver's License) is also required for official references.

The TRUTH is what we stand for. TEL: (01-1)+234-809-165-3375.
This Official Letter is being issued to you by "The Federal Ministry of Finance" in collaboration with The Presidency.

Dear Esteemed Customer,


We at this bank wish to congratulate and inform you that after thorough review of your Inheritance/Contract funds transfer release documents in conjunction with the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund assessment report, your payment file was forwarded to us for immediate transfer of a part-payment US$5,800,000.00 to your designated bank account from their offshore account with us.

NOT LEGIT!

Okay here's why...

1st thing you notice is that they address you as "Esteemed Customer" not by your name, if they truly had $5.8 Million Dollars to give you, the least they would do is Address you by your name.

Next you have to understand that a lawyer or private detective who would normally contact you about an inheritance would never disclose the amount. They would contact you via a traceable method like Registered/Certified mail (here in the US), or by FedEX, something that has tracking and delivery confirmation, They use this method to ensure that you have received the notice of contact. They would explain in that notice, #1 your name, #2 Who the relative was, #3 they would give you an address and phone number to contact for more information. They would have you come in to a lawyers office to read over the will or probate papers and then maybe sign some documents.

Also, note the bottom of the message "Note: this message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by mail scammer's, and is believed to be true and clean." how can a virus scanner know that the message is "TRUE" that is simply there to make you feel oh this has been scanned and its okay. Reminder of how a virus scanner works, Virus is encountered, virus sent to some company like McAfee or TrendMicro, they test it and find a removal plan, they release a update to scan and catch. Which means that if the scanner knows its "TRUE" it has to have been reviewed many times? Hmmm... sounds fishy to me..

Just a Quick search on Google using "BARCLAYS BANK PAYMENT NOTIFICATION" will show many copies of the email

Okay here is why!

Right off the bat if you do a quick spell check you will see many misspellings, if you throw in a grammar check you will find a lot more.... The most obvious is "FBI HEADQUATERS" ummm... it should be Headquarters

Next we have to ask ourselves what the Hell are they even talking about... They never state why they are contacting you, nor do they state why the FBI would be knocking on your door other than "Failure to contact them (
(EFCC)Lagos, Nigeria)", if this were a real FBI email, Uh it would not be an email it would be an Arrest Warrant served in person, well if this was actually what they want you to believe it is.

Here is the Major Issue here, The FBI would not be involved in making sure you are able to receive money, that job is left to Lawyers and Private Detectives. Now the FBI will get involved in tracking you down if it is a illegal transaction. and the IRS will come after you if you do not claim it and pay taxes on it...

Not Legit

Okay here is how this works...

The sender of this message will send you the listings to post on eBay for them...(1st clue its not legit, Why do they need you to post the listings save themselves the cost of paying you and post it themselves)

You will post the listing, someone buys and pays for the "item" you keep the $150 commission and send the rest of the money to them (most likely via western union).

They will of course keep sending you listings as long as you keep sending them money. You WILL make money doing this...

However after about 2 weeks, you will start to see complaints and charge backs for the items that have already sold and been paid for. The reason is because the person (here named Gillian) has not mailed any items to the buyers, which of course will land you in legal and criminal trouble. While you are going to court for all of this, this person who you have been sending the money to is no where to be found. Now you are stuck paying back all the people who never got the item they bought and paid for, and all the fees involved in such an endeavor.

So is it legit? NO!
