_______________________________________________________________________________

Attention: Shivraj Ramakant Patil,

The reparation committee instructed that the total sum ($500, 000.00 Dollars only) shall be transferred to you via our transfer service (western union money transfer) and due to our transfer schedules, we agreed to be transferring $5,000.00 Dollars to you per day until the subject fund ($500,000.00 dollars) is completed paid to you based on our agreement with the federal ministry of finance & reparation committee.

Meanwhile, we have already remitted the first payment of $5,000.00 dollars to your name just now and you are required to send to us the required transfer charge of $175.00 to enable you pick up you first payment we remitted on your name. Take this point; you can not pick up this first payment of $5,000.00 without sending our transfer charge to us.

Note: the reason why we instructed you to send us the required transfer charge of $175.00 is that your money has been registered as cable wire transfer by the federal ministry of finance and we can not deduct or remove our transfer charge of the first payment from it based on the instructions from the federal ministry of finance and reparation committee to avoid diverting the transfer to another beneficiary name. Therefore, we advice you to send our transfer charge to us immediately to enable you pick up the first payment of $5,000.00 we remitted today.

Here is the information of the first payment we remits to your name today but the MTCN will remain on hold for security reason until you send us our transfer charges of $175.00 dollars before you can pick up your money; you can track the MTCN & SENDER NAME with our web site below for confirmation.
