PAYMENT NOTICE OF YOUR OUTSTANDING US$10.5MILLION

Based on bilateral agreement reached between the American President
and some foreign debtor nations who owe huge amounts of funds to our
citizens and foreigners alike, which has brought untold financial
difficulties to these individuals, succour and reprieve have been
brought their way as the First State Bank New York has been vested
with the authority to immediately ensure that these individual
beneficiaries are paid their fund as quickly as possible.

From the files made available to this office, your name is contained
among those beneficiaries who have outstanding claims which has for
years been unpaid. We believe the financial hardship this undue delay
has brought to you and family including your business can better be
imagined than real and we want to assure you that we will not delay in
effecting the immediate release of your fund once we receive a
confirmation from you.

At the point of carrying out the release of the fund, we received a
letter from Mr. Robert Redding from Florida requesting the release of
the fund to the account below;

Do confirm to us immediately as First State Bank wants to be very
careful in order to avoid payment to a wrong account. We are making
this confirmation because we have a responsibility to protect our
customers.

If you did not authorize this action of Mr. Robert, we hereby advise
that in your own very best interest, you should forthwith stop any
further communication with any person(s) regarding your fund payment
to avoid criminal diversion of your fund that might result from you
divulging very useful information to bad elements and thereby
jeopardize your payment.

In view of the development, payment will be Via online account to
avoid loss of fund. The online account guarantees that you manage the
account and direct transactions fom your base. To facilitate this, you
are directed to forward to us immediately a passport photo of you as
well as a copy of your Personal ID for the account opening. Once
opened, your fund will be lodged in the account.

The only obligation required from you is $550 account opening
processing charge. The account opening processing charge is NOT
DEDUCTIBLE from fund. So if you are able, willing and ready to comply
with this directive, you should revert to us with the requirements for
the account opening.

Your immediate reply is being awaited as all protocol for the
immediate payment of the $10.5Million has been finalized before Mr.
Redding came with the change of account.

Treat as very important and urgent.
