peoples, unscrupulous elements, and impostors that were impersonating
Western Union. Prior to that I have to order for the arrest all those
who were involved.

mailed-by: gmail.com
Attention:
I want to introduce my self to you, I am Mrs. Patricia Mahoney, the
newly elected director general U.S. Ambassador to Benin Republic.I
Mrs. Patricia Mahoney's career in the U.S. foreign service has
included both domestic and international assignments. From 2001 to
2004, I Patricia Mahoney served as Political and Economic Chief at the
U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal, before becoming Political Chief at
the U.S. Embassy in Colombo, Sri Lanka, where I remained until 2006. I
Patricia Mahoney served as Director for South Asia at the National
Security Council from 2006 to 2008).
I Patricia Mahoney attended the National War College from 2008 to
2009, becoming a Distinguished Graduate as I received M.S. Degree in
2009. Following mine graduation from the National War College, I
became Deputy Director in the Office of India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and
Bangladesh Affairs in the Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs
until 2010, when I became Deputy Chief of Mission at the American
Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal, where I served for three years. From 2013
to 2016 I Patricia Mahoney, was Deputy Chief of Mission of the
American Embassy in Kampala, Uganda. I then became the Office Director
of the Office of Mainland Southeast Asia from 2016 to 2018. In 2018
U.S. President, nominated me to become U.S. Ambassador
to Benin Republic, and the U.S. Senate approved nomination on 2
January 2019. I was sworn into office January 18, 2019. I Patricia
Mahoney,presented credentials in Benin on July 4, 2019.
Your fund was brought to our office by Mr. Garry Anthony Harry
Attorney Counsels At Law Freedom Chambers Justice High Court, here in
Cotonou, Benin Republic and he made me to understand that the said
funds worth (US$15, 000, 000:00),has already uploaded into Automated
Teller Machine (ATM Visa Card),but since then none of them had from
you that's why the issue brought to my office as your Ambassador
/Representative here in a view of Cancellation and diversion into
Government Treasury Account as unclaimed fund to ease the Country's
Economic Recession thus, due to your refusal to comply and meet up
with delivery terms and conditions, Then, I asked what are the
conditions, but I was told that you are been required to pay the
delivery shipment cost of (US$75).Trust is both an emotional and
logical act. Emotionally, it is where you expose your vulnerabilities
to people, but believing they will not take advantage of your
openness. Logically, it is where you have assessed the probabilities
of gain and loss, calculating expected utility based on hard
performance data, and concluded that the person in question will
behave in a predictable manner. In practice, trust is a bit of both. I
trust you because I have experienced your trustworthiness by merely
believing in what I have said, even when you have not seen me, and
because I have faith in human nature.
Frankly speaking, I understand that anyone in your shoes will feel
betrayed, but I still want you to show me your trust by giving me the
benefit of doubt on this delivery arrangement. My identity and
personality is verifiable, and I promise to deliver your ATM VISA
CARD, to you without any hitch. Please do not allow this mission to
die off because of $75.00, I meant so well for you and I believe you
will appreciate me more when you have finally received your partial
payment of $15.000,000,00.(Fifteen Million United States of America
Dollars Only),I will use my position and personality to deliver below
ATM VISA CARD ,without questioning from the financial monitoring
authorities, since all documentations proving the legitimacy of the
funds has been processed.Please don't see me as one of the numerous
dubious Benin Republic, you have dealt with in the past, I am a
different person entirely and I come from a different continent.I have
the American spirit in me and I hate cheaters. I promise to always
uphold the national unity of the United State. Please reply back ASAP
and let me know your possibility of sending the $75.00 , via Money
Gram or APPLE CARD/ GOOGLE PLAY GIFTS CARD.
We write to inform you of the breaking news about your Compensation
fund of ($15 .000 ,000,00.) which you have been expecting sending
money for so longer, without a good result up to date, even many of
them contacted you in form of Western Union Department or Money Gram
stated your fund was with them, from the financial regulatory bodies
of this Country, from their report I gathered that your Compensation
fund, which was scheduled to have been remitted to your destination
point by some corrupt officials with intention of on asking you to pay
endless money.I went to Benin Republic International Criminal
Organization after USA Embassy Board of Directors for investigation,
and in their bid to launch a full scale investigation into the saga,
they found out that the reason why you were swindled in the past and
still not been able to receive your expected fund till date was
because you were dealing with the wrong people without involved USA
Embassy Representative, unscrupulous elements, and impostors that were
impersonating.
Further more,USA Embassy have took the chance to an emergency meeting
with the Government of Benin Republic, and it was resolved that you
shall be receiving the $15.000,000,00, we have summon the amalgamated
union governing all the official office stores in this Country and
their MD referred your fund to step aside that we will handle your
payment total sum of $15.000,000,00,by yourself,so,it better for you
to stopped communicate with any other office here in Benin
Republic,because,if you did is for your own risk.Though the Claim Fund
Origin certificate charges that you were supposed to pay was initially

conditions, but I was told that you are been required to pay the
delivery shipment cost of (US$75).Trust is both an emotional and
logical act. Emotionally, it is where you expose your vulnerabilities
to people, but believing they will not take advantage of your
openness. Logically, it is where you have assessed the probabilities
of gain and loss, calculating expected utility based on hard
performance data, and concluded that the person in question will
behave in a predictable manner. In practice, trust is a bit of both. I
trust you because I have experienced your trustworthiness by merely
believing in what I have said, even when you have not seen me, and
because I have faith in human nature.
Frankly speaking, I understand that anyone in your shoes will feel
betrayed, but I still want you to show me your trust by giving me the
benefit of doubt on this delivery arrangement. My identity and
personality is verifiable, and I promise to deliver your ATM VISA
CARD, to you without any hitch. Please do not allow this mission to
die off because of $75.00, I meant so well for you and I believe you

Dollars Only),I will use my position and personality to deliver below
ATM VISA CARD ,without questioning from the financial monitoring
authorities, since all documentations proving the legitimacy of the
funds has been processed.Please don't see me as one of the numerous
dubious Benin Republic, you have dealt with in the past, I am a
different person entirely and I come from a different continent.I have
the American spirit in me and I hate cheaters. I promise to always
uphold the national unity of the United State. Please reply back ASAP
and let me know your possibility of sending the $75.00 , via Money
Gram or APPLE CARD/ GOOGLE PLAY GIFTS CARD.
We write to inform you of the breaking news about your Compensation
fund of ($15 .000 ,000,00.) which you have been expecting sending
money for so longer, without a good result up to date, even many of
them contacted you in form of Western Union Department or Money Gram
stated your fund was with them, from the financial regulatory bodies
of this Country, from their report I gathered that your Compensation
fund, which was scheduled to have been remitted to your destination
point by some corrupt officials with intention of on asking you to pay
endless money.I went to Benin Republic International Criminal
Organization after USA Embassy Board of Directors for investigation,
and in their bid to launch a full scale investigation into the saga,
they found out that the reason why you were swindled in the past and
