Attention: Firstname Lastname Dear Sir, This is to inform you that we have verified your claims with Lottobets International Lotteries to ascertain the authenticity and the genuineness of your winnings. I therefore wish to congratulate you on the successful confirmation of your winnings. Our main objective is to provide guidance until you receive your prize winnings. In this regard your unalloyed co-operation will be appreciated. Following the confirmation and approval of your winnings your prize winning certificate has been issued. It is a very important document in this transaction, as you must be paid your winning prize by Lottobets International Lotteries once it is issued. It is also a legal instrument as it can be tendered in a court of competent jurisdiction as an important exhibit if you are not paid by the Lottery Firm. Lottobets International Lotteries also risks sanction by the European Gaming Board of Control if after the issuance of the certificate you are not paid. Also issued is the draft for your winning. We should collect it on your behalf by the close of work today. The following options have been outline for the payment of your prize winnings. You are expected to choose the one that is affordable by you. I have given a breakdown of all the options and you will be expected to choose one that is most suitable to you. Before then I want you to know that C.O.D is not available for hand delivered packages. We do not use the regular courier services. We have a retainership agreement with a delivery firm that hand delivers all our packages. There are four categories available please choose the one that is affordable by you and transfer information will be sent to you. Category A: First Class Delivery === Within 24 hours=== 1,350 Euros Category B: Economy delivery === Within 24 hours=== 1,050 Euros Category C: Third Class Delivery === Within 3 days==== 850 Euros Category D: Manual Delivery ===== Within 5 days==== 295 Euros The second option is payment through a designated online bank. Bank transfer through wire or telegraphic transfer (TT) wire transfer attracts charges of 0.003% of the total sum, which is US$1649.37. You also be expected to pay these charges prior to making the online transfer of your prize winnings. The quoted amount is what it would cost you to have the draft (check) discounted and you will be expected to pay this sum before the draft is discounted and sent to you via online wire transfer. The last option is personal appearance at our head office to collect your prize winnings. In this option also you will pay administrative charges of about US$5000 to collect your winnings. The total amount that you have won is 549,790.00 (Five Hundred and Forty Nine Thousand Euros). This is the amount that you will receive as no deductions are allowed. If it is by direct deposit, that is, wire transfer it will take about 48 hours to reflect in your account. Deductions are not to be made from your winnings. You have to bear the entire cost involved prior to receiving your prize winnings. Please in your next email choose the category affordable by you and I would send you transfer information. I have attached here your prize-winning certificate. The original copy will be sent to you after the payment of your winnings. Thanks for your quick response and co-operation. Manuel Fernandez.
