Dear Customer,
This email is aimed at informing you of the current Status of your parcel delivery.We just received an electronically faxed email from our Delivery council stating that your parcel has been put on hold by the BRITISH INLAND REVENUE BOARD at London Heathrow Airport, pending your fulfillment of the Non-UK Resident/UK Resident Tax Clearance. This current strategy is in line with the new HM and Customs regulations propagated to control Monetary Circulation in and out of the UK.This bill recently passed by the two Houses requires winners Non-UK Resident/UK Resident to authenticate their winning cheque before it leaves for delivery.
We therefore state that your winning parcel is intact and safely packaged in the HM and Customs office. We must inform you that your parcel cannot be accessed because it is covered by a HIGH INSURANCE POLICY .Also it is against the laws of the BRITISH GAMBLING BOARD for anyone to temper with your winning parcel at the time of Tax clearance.
You are advised to contact the BRITISH INLAND REVENUE BOARD as soon as possible with the Information given below so they can release your winning parcel to enable us facilitate immediate delivery.
NAME:Mr.Halley Gibbs.
ADDRESS:21 Wilson Street, London, EC2M 2TD.England
EMAIL:[email protected]
As soon as Tax clearance is completed. We shall be called upon to pick your winning parcel for delivery.We however apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
MR HARRISON BLAIR
