Since I could not found any contrite reasons why your fund was abandoned and it is in my jurisdiction to restore your abandoned fund and include your name in our payment schedule among the beneficiaries that will receive their payment in at quarter payment of the year hence the Federal Government of Nigeria have approved and set aside One Hundred and twenty Billion UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN DOLLARS from our Federal Reserve Account to offset all foreign debts to the beneficiaries.

Before I can proceed to include your name among the beneficiaries that will receive their funds and also process your funds for transfer along with other fund beneficiaries, I will like to know from you the TRUTH NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH AND REASON WHY YOU CHOOSE TO ABANDONED YOUR HARD EARNED FUND WHICH HAS BEEN OVERDUE FOR PAYMENT? Secondly, Are you still interested to receive your fund at this quarter payment of the year?.

The email was sent from the email address ""From The Sceretary to Rev. Dr. Paul Ego" <cacgcbn@gmail.com>", with the Reply-to address "paulego@mail.com" and the subject "From The Desk of Rev. Dr. Paul Ego".

The email is a classic example of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam with promises of a large sum of money being transferred to the victim. Anyone responding to it will be told that there is a fee/tax/insurance payment to be paid to receive the money. This will be followed by payment after payment until the victim runs out of money or realises that they are being scammed.
