Dear Visa/ATM Card Beneficiaries,
This is to inform you after much deliberation on your countless efforts to get
your payment without success and with regard to your dealings with impostors. I
wish to inform that a resolution has been reached by members of the payment
committee to get your funds cleared and delivered to your home address within a
period of 72 hours solemnly agreed by Board of Trustee of the United Nations
World Re-compensation Commission (U.N.W.R.C). A VISA GOLD CARD containing the
sum of Four Million Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars
($4,800,000.00USD) will be issued in your Favor. Send your response to
s.kingham@aol.co.uk
[Okay, where to start!!!!
a. They are assuming I would just forget my "countless efforts?"
b. A Visa Gold card with a 4.8 million dollar credit limit?? Is it actually made of gold?
c. Re-compensation for what?
d. Because AOL is the email provider for soooooooooooo many legitimate businesses in 2012.]
Secondly, as a result of widespread fraud over the internet and to avoid abuse
of the program we will provide you details of the VISA GOLD CARD upon your
response. Please we will like you to confirm the following information.
