Email title: ATTENTION DEAR BENEFICIARY
Body: ATTENTION DEAR BENEFICIARY
I regret to inform you of a matter that has caused me great concern. I recently received an email from Mr. James White, who also contacted us by telephone yesterday at +1 (606)-357-0122. He claimed that you had passed away and that, as your next of kin, he should be granted Power of Attorney by the Ministry of Finance in order to transfer your $10.5 million to himself.
He further stated that you had instructed him to claim both your funds and your properties, as you were no longer alive. If this is true, I am deeply sorry to hear of your passing. This would also explain why you have not responded to our previous emails. Please accept my condolences, and may your soul rest in peace.
However, I am not fully convinced of his claims. Mr. White mentioned that you had told him to prepare $100.00 USD for the Origin Certificate fee required for the transfer. Before proceeding, I advised him to wait until I could confirm the truth of this matter with you directly.
If you are still alive, please respond immediately and send the required $100.00 USD fee (via Steam Wallet or iTunes Card) today. This is the final step needed to complete the transfer and make your funds available to you tomorrow as agreed. Please note that the deadline for this process is very close, and any further delay may cause complications with your payment file.
If we do not hear from you by tomorrow, we will have no choice but to assume Mr. White’s claim is correct. In that case, we will proceed to update your payment file under his name and release the funds to him as your next of kin.
I sincerely hope to hear from you promptly with confirmation and the payment details. This matter is extremely urgent, and your immediate cooperation will ensure no further delays.
Yours Faithfully,
Mrs. Kristalina Georgieva
Managing Director of the
International Monetary Fund (IMF)
