ATTENTION FUND BENEFICIARY
This is an official advice from the FBI foreign Remittance / telegraph department. It has come to our notice that the C.B.N Bank Nigeria district has released 5,300,000.00 US dollars into Bank of America in your name as the beneficiary by inheritance means.
The Bank in Africa knowing fully well that they do not have enough facilities to effect this payment from the united kingdom into your account, Used what we know as a secret FBI Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer Certificate (DIST CERTIFICATE) to transfer these fund via wire transfer.
They are still waiting for confirmation from you on the already transferred funds which was made in direct transfer so that they can do final crediting to your account.
Secret diplomatic payment is not made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities. That is why your payment has been made in secret transfer. If your transaction is legit and you are not a terrorist. Then why did you not receive the money directly into your account? This is a pure coded means of payment? Most Records we have had with this method of payment in the past has always been related to terrorist acts, We do not want you to get into trouble as soon as these funds reflect into your account in the U.S.A, so it is our duty as a world wide commission to correct this little problem before this fund will be credited into your personal account.
Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American authorities when funds enter from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, The F.B.I Bank Commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver payment of $5,300,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (S.D.T.A). We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world.
We advice you contact us immediately as the funds have been Stopped and are being held in our custody, until you can be able to provide us with a Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer Certificate (DIST CERTIFICATE) within 3 days from the world local bank that authorize the transfer in order to certify to us that the funds you are about to receive from Nigeria are anti-terrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to cross and impound the Payment, we shall release the funds immediately we receive this legal documents. (DIST CERTIFICATE)
You will be directed where and how to get the document if it is not in your possession.
These Condition Is Valid until 31st October 2010 after which we shall take actions on canceling the payment and then charge you for illegally moving funds out of Nigeria.
Yours in Service

Attention Fund Beneficiary:
We receive your email which is meant for the issuance of the DIST CERTIFICATE to enable you receive your fund legally as demanded by the FBI highest authority. We have waited to hear from you on these regards because we received a copy of the letter to you from the FBI headquarter. Now your beneficiary fund is deposited in bank of America and will be credited to your to personal bank account which you will later reconfirm to us as soon as your dist certificate is processed.
After reading the letter together with a copy sent to us by the FBI, We came to understand that you are required to produce the FBI DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY SEAL OF TRANSFER CERTIFICATE (DIST CERTIFICATE) to enable you receive your fund legally and that we are expected to make this vital document available to you as soon as possible. It is based on this and considering the limited time frame given you to produce the certificate that i decided to write you immediately to educate you on what the DIST CERTIFICATE is all about and how the certificate will be issued to you.
The Diplomatic Immunity Seal of Transfer (DIST) as being demanded by the FBI is the most vital in having your fund authenticated. It will further clear you and your fund of any involvement in any acts of terrorism funding and money laundering. In this DIST document, you will find your money laundering and anti-terrorist clearance certificate. This will help you receive your fund any where in the world all over without any problem. All of these are contained therein.
To have these dist certificate obtained, there is a stipulated amount of money being expected from the fund beneficiary to pay. This is a subsidized rate by the United Nations (UN) and International Monetary Fund (IMF) to make it affordable to any potential fund beneficiary.
Therefore, it is your statutory obligation to have the fee of $750.00 United State Dollars paid and have this document obtained in 3 working days. We therefore advise that you send the fee of $750.00 USD for immediate procurement of this vital document being requested by the FBI highest authority.
Send the fee immediately through Western Union Money Transfer using our protocol officer's information as shown below:
NAME: ASHIKWE OGECHUKWU CHRISTOPHER
STATE: ANAMBRA STATE
COUNTRY: NIGERIA
TEXT QUESTION: CODE
TEXT ANSWER: WHITE
AMOUNT: $750.00 USD.
Note: There is no way your fund will be released for transfer into your account without you presenting this document to the FBI authority. Once the fee is paid, we shall procure the document immediately and send to the FBI for verification/subsequent release of your fund to your account which you have to reconfirm to them directly.
You must therefore send this fee as soon as possible to our protocol officer in charge with his information as stated above so we can process your DIST CERTIFICATE immediately and then complete your fund transfer as earlier arranged.
Note: As soon as you make the payment for your dist document, Send down to me the payment slip from western union via this same email address for easy collection in order to utilize it for your request as soon as the fee is received.
Yours in service

The exact same email (scam) was sent to us today, saying that we needed to IMMEDIATELY forward our dist certificate to this company - "FBI". It was from "Mr. Robert Mueller!?"
ReplyDeleteThe email (scam) was "warning" us that a large sum of money was being taken out of a bank account with our name on it, to pay for some drug scandal, in Africa!!!!
WHAT A SCAM!
This is the email we received:

We have been informed through our global intelligence monitoring network that the sum of $10.500, 000.00, has been released from a bank in Africa bearing your name as the beneficiary without dist certificate to clear your name and fund from every terrorist or drug or money laundering activities
The bank knowing fully well that they do not have enough facilities to make this payment from any part of the world to your account directly, used what we know as a secret diplomatic transit payment (s.t.d.p) method to make the payment. direct transfers are difficult and secret diplomatic transit payment (s.t.d.p) are not usually made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities and we ask why must your payment be made in a secret transfer if your transaction is legitimate.
We do not want you to get into trouble as soon as these funds reflect in your personal account, so it is our duty as an international agency to correct these little problems before this fund reflects into your personal account.
we advice you to contact us immediately, as your funds have been stopped and are being held in our custody, until you are able to provide us with the dist certificate within 3 days from the country that authorized the transfer to certify that the funds that you are about to receive are terrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to impound the payment and subsequently prosecute you for cross border terrorist financial activites.
based on our findings, our investigative department wish to warn you against some miscreants, hoodlums and touts who go about scamming innocent people by claiming to be who they are not and thereby tarnishing the image of this wonderful country. By sending out fraudulent emails without our official logo and emblem we shall release your funds immediately we receive this legal document and we will ensure that you receive your payment without any further delay.
Note
We decided to contact you directly by email to acquire the proper verifications and proof from you to show that you are the rightful person to receive this fund, because of the huge amount involved. Be informed that the funds are now with a top bank in the united state in your name and under the monitoring/custody of the FBI. At the moment, we have asked the bank not to release the fund to anybody that comes to them, unless we instruct them to do so, and only if we receive the dist certificate this is to enable us carry out a comprehensive investigation first before releasing the fund to you.
hence, you are to forward your dist certificate to us immediately if you have it in your possession, if you do not have it, then let us know so that we will direct you to the appropriate authority to obtain the certificate then you are to send it to our office. And thereafter, we will instruct the bank holding the funds, to go ahead and credit your account immediately. If you fail to provide the documents to this office, we will prosecute you and take appropriate action against you for not proving the legality of the funds.
Yours Faithfully

MR. ROBERT S. MUELLER.
I, too, received the exact same e-mail from this "MR. ROBERT S MUELLER". It's good to hear that it's all just a scam. However; should the real FBI be informed about this or should it just be ignored? I'd kind of like these scammers to be arrested.
ReplyDeleteI just received this email today too. The interesting part is that it is not addressed to a person, no where does it state my name or the name or my email address.
ReplyDeleteI forwarded it to the FBI through their website telling them to keep it, they needed it more than I do.
ReplyDeleteDO NOT PRINT /FORWARD THIS MAIL ITS AGAINST THE LAW This e-mail, including any attachments, is covered by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 10 U.S.C. 2510-2521
