Greeting,

I have gone through your email and the transfer is cancelled because you payment file is not activate now you are going to pay 99 dollars only for re-activation of your payment file here in our office before you can be able to pick up your first payment and without the activation you can not be able to pick up the first payment therefore you are advise as a matter of urgency to send the requested 50 dollars so that you can start picking your funds but remember that you can not be able to pick your fund if this requested fee of 50 dollars is not paid.Your total fund is $1.8 million which will be delivered to you within 12 hours after complying.

The earlier you pay the $50.00 the earlier your funds is release then you start receiving it without any more delay or hitch

If you want the transfer to commence immediately then you can go ahead to your nearest western union or money gram office to send the fee to

You are to send the needed fee through Gift card (iTunes, steam wallet, nordstrom or eBay)
