Somerville, NJ 08876, USA

Attention:

I have received your email and noted the content but am so sorry, the fee cannot be deducted from the principal winning prize because it’s yet to be processed and the required $750 USD fee is compulsory fee and a direct order from the FDIC as enshrined on the FDIC Fund Transfer Regulation Policy ACT No: FDIC-23 US Sub-section 23.

I will advice you carefully read below to perfectly understand how the activation and payment process works:

Sequel to the instruction of the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) and in accordance with the Unity Bank, USA Fund Release Regulation and (FDIC) Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation requires an account opening initial deposit fee to get your account activated and procure your Transfer Pin Cod for further transfer.

The Beneficiary is obligatory to pay an initial deposit fee to get your online account ACTIVATED and also receive your Transfer Pin Cod as enshrined on the FDIC Fund Transfer Regulation Policy ACT No: FDIC-23 US Sub-section 23, and this attracts an official payment ACTIVATION fee of $750 USD only, this is to say that the required fee is compulsory, so your winning fund will never get cleared without the account activation, waiting for your fund to get cleared means waiting forever and your account have a stipulated time frame to be activated or it will be terminated.

If you are ready with the fee, I will give you details where to send the fee urgently for immediate and continue process of your winning prize fund.

Your Sincerely.

Mrs. Jennifer Hennager
