This e-mail has been issued to you in order to
Officially inform you that we have completed an investigation on an
International Payment in which was issued to you by an International Lottery
Company located in Lagos Island, Nigeria. With the help of our newly
developed technology (International Monitoring Network System) we discovered
that your e-mail address was automatically selected by a newly introduced
Online Balloting System, this has legally won you the sum of $1,500,000.00
US Dollars.



The name of the Lottery Company in which presently owes you the sum of
$1,500,000.00 US Dollars is- Alliance Global Lottery Company. They ran an
Internet Balloting system which automatically selects e-mail addresses all
over the world, this system selects alphabets and numbers automatically and
once it has gathered several alphabets, it then randomly selects domains. In
this case, your e-mail address was one of the lucky winners.



Alliance Global Lottery Company placed an advert on their local TV stations,
Radio stations, Websites and even hand bills. Due to the advertisement, your
e-mail address must have been compromised which has caused you to receive a
lot of unsolicited e-mails. We have placed a law suit against the Lottery
Company claiming that you were never paid the sum of $1,500,000.00 US
Dollars, they have hereby pleaded and requested that the Federal Bureau of
Investigation should contact you on their behalf to immediately proceed
towards sending the winner its legal prize as stated above.



Due to the pressure from the Federal Bureau of Investigation placed upon
Alliance Global Lottery, they have deposited the sum of $1,500,000.00 US
Dollars at a bank located in Bellingham, USA and the name of the bank is-
Horizon Bank. The account has been setup as an International Account and
presently holds the balance as stated above, therefore the funds shall be
delivered to you in form of a Certified Cashier's Check.



After our thorough
investigation, you are hereby
approved to receive the winning prize as we have verified the entire

transaction to be Safe and 100% risk free, due to the fact that the
funds
have been deposited at the
Horizon Bank
you
will be required to settle the following bills directly to the
Lottery Agent
in-charge of this transaction whom is located in the
Lagos Island, Nigeria. According to our discoveries, you were
required to
pay for the following -




Deposit Fee's (Fee’s
paid by the Lottery Company for the deposit into an American Bank which
is - Horizon Bank)


Cashier's
Check
Conversion Fee (Fee for converting the Wire

Transfer payment into a Certified Cashier's Check)



The total
amount for everything is $320.00 (Three Hundred and Twenty USD only.) We have tried our possible best to indicate that this
$320.00 should be deducted from your winning prize but we found out that the
funds have already been deposited at the Horizon Bank and cannot be
accessed by
anyone except the legal owner (you), the winner; therefore you will
be
required to pay the required fee's to the Agent in-charge of this
transaction via Money Gram only.
