Please again find the e-mail from Mr. Anderson

ATTN: EMIL FERNANDEZ,

Country: Dubai UAE.

Date:24 MAY

YOUR PAYMENT WAS RECEIVED AND YOUR PARCEL WAS ON TRANSIT TO YOUR ADDRESS IN WHICH YOU HAVE PROVIDED TO US.

BUT WE GOT A URGENT MESSAGE FROM THE BRITISH INLAND REVENUE TO STOP THE TRANSIT OF YOUR CHEQUE, SO WE SENT OUR DELEGATE TO THEM FOR A BRIEF ISSUE WHY WE MUST STOP THE DELIVERY. SO THE DELEGATES SENT TO MEET THE BRITISH INLAND REVENUE COMMISSION, RETURNED BACK WITH THE FOLLOWING INFORMATIONS THIS MORNING.

FIRST, THEY ASKED FOR ALL LEGAL DOCUMENTS BACKING THE AUTHENCITY OF YOUR FUNDS WHICH OUR DELEGATES IMMEDIATELY RESOLVED AS THEY HAD WITH THEM ALL LEGAL DOCUMENTS PROVING THE SOURCE OF YOUR FUNDS.

THEY ALSO INFORMED THAT THERE WILL BE A COMPLETE HOLD TO YOUR WINNINGS AND WE ARE TO STOP FORTH WITH THE DELIVERY OF THE FUND VALUED £165, 000 BELONGING TO THE WINNER (EMIL FERNANDEZ).

THE REASON THEY GAVE IS THAT THE BENEFICIARY (EMIL FERNANDEZ) IS NOT A BRITISH NATIONAL AND AS LAW OF BRITAIN (ACT 156 DECREE 217) AND TRANSFER ACT OF 2002 WHICH REGUALATES FUNDS TRANSFER STIPULATES THAT ANY SUCH FUNDS WITHOUT COMPREHENSIVE TAX TO BE TRANSFERED OUTSIDE BRITAIN, THE BENEFICIARY IS COMPELLED AND UNDER OBLIGATORY LAW OF BRITAIN TO PAY A TOTAL OF 1% (ONE PERCENT) OF THE TOTAL FUNDS TO THE BRITISH REVENUE DEPARTMENT WHICH IS £1, 650 (ONE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND FIFTY POUNDS STERLINGS). THE STOP ORDER NOTIFICATION TAKES EFFECT IMMEDIATELY AS THIS IS TO FACILITATE THE SETTLEMENT OF COST ON COMPREHENSIVE TAX TRANSFER OUTSIDE BRITAIN AND TAX TO THE REVENUE DEPARTMENT.

HOWEVER AN AUTHORIZATION USERNAME AND PASSWORD AND A TRACKING NUMBER FOR COURIER DELIVERY BY FEDEX (10 DIGITS) WILL BE ISSUED TO FEDEX DELIVERY UNIT UK COURIER SERVICES TO CONTINUE DELIVERY UPON FULFILMENT OF THIS OBLIGATION.

THE ABOVE WAS THE MESSAGE THE DELEGATES BROUGHT BACK FROM THE MEETING WITH THE BRITISH INLAND REVENUE COMMISSION THIS MORNING.I WOULD HAVE SUGGESTED THAT WE DEDUCT FROM YOUR TOTAL FUNDS, BUT WE HAVE BEEN ORDERED TO PUT A HOLD ON YOUR WINNINGS AND STOP THE TRANSFER OF YOUR FUNDS AS YOUR NAME HAS BEEN ENGRAVED ON THE CHEQUE.

IF WE NOW DEDUCT FROM YOUR FUNDS TO SETTLE THE COST, WE MIGHT BE MISTAKEN THAT WE ACTUALLY WERE TRYING TO AVOID THE BRITISH TAX AND THIS IS A SERIOUS OFFENCE HERE IN THE UK.

I WILL ADVICE THAT I SUPPLY YOU WITH PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS WHERE YOU ARE TO EFFECT THE REQUIRED FUNDS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO THAT WE CONTINUE WITH THE TRANSFER OF YOUR FUNDS.

AS YOU ARE REQUIRE TO MAKE THE PAYMENT WITH THE NAME OF OUR ACCOUNT OFFICER: MRS. ELLA WAYNE.

RECEIVER'S NAME: MRS. ELLA WAYNE

RECEIVER'S COUNTRY:17 CRICKLEWOOD BROADWAY, LONDON, NW24 89JH

AMOUNT:£ 1650.00 (GBP)

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL DOCUMENTS WILL BE MAILED TO YOU AFTER WE RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

THERE IS AN ATTACHED DOCUMENT FROM THE BRITISH INLAND REVENUE COMMISSION WHICH YOU HAVE TO FILL, SIGN AND SEND BACK TO US ALONG WITH YOUR PAYMENT DETAILS SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE WITH THE DELIVERY OF YOUR WINNINGS.

I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE.

Good luck and Congratulations once again. Please send your

response within the next 24hrs to this same email address.

Yours faithfully,

Mr Anderson. J. Maxwell

My e-mail to Mr. Andreson

Mr Anderson. J. Maxwell,

With reference to our today’s telecommunication, I will be replying to you within a day time since I need a day to arrange 1650 pounds.

Thanks and regards,

Emil Fernandez

Mr Anderson. J. Maxwell,

I guess you have called me last night at 12 midnight. But I couldn’t attend your phone because I was sleeping and my phone was kept on discrete mode.

Well, today I will be sending the money at around 8.00 pm through western union money transfer in the name of your Accounts Officer Mrs. Ella Wayne (i.e. 1 % of the total fund which is £1, 650).

Kindly acknowledge receipt of this e-mail please so as to confirm me sending the money. Also I will fill the British Inland Revenue form, scan it and then attached along with the pay slip for your kind references.

Mr. Anderson, kindly ensure that I don’t have to pay anymore extra money apart from this tax as I am in short of money and this money I am borrowing from my colleagues.

Awaiting for your urgent response.

Thanks and best regards,

EMIL FERNANDEZ

Mr Anderson. J. Maxwell,

With reference to your e-mail and our subsequent telecommunication yesterday and today, please find attached herewith the pay slip of £1, 650 (One Thousand Six Hundred And Fifty Pounds Sterlings) along with the British Inland Revenue Form filled and signed by myself.

I hope and trust that all the formalities have been completed and I hereby urge you to expedite the cheque as soon as possible.

Kindly acknowledge receipt of this mail and revert.

Thanks and best regards,

Emil Fernandez

In this email Mr. Anderson attached some forms and the payment to be paid again he is asking for 10650 pounds as a fee for THE EUROPEAN UNION FUNDS CLEARANCE AUTHORITY

My final reply to Mr. Anderson

Mr. Anderson,

To be honest, I am really disappointed with our last conversation today. Actually this is unfair and not right.

After discussion on telephone and going through the mail, I have clearly mentioned to you via my earlier mail that I had no money to pay for the tax i.e. 1650 pounds which I did with great difficulty by borrowing from my colleagues which was mandatory from your end. Moreover, you promised me that this is the last amount which I had to pay and the cheque will be delivered within 24 hours.

Since I am working in Dubai at present, I recommend you to transfer the amount (165000 pounds) to my bank address directly in India and not in UAE as follows.

Emil Fernandez

State Bank of Travancore

NRI Branch, Mavelikara – 690101

A/C No. so and so

Kerala State – INDIA

If the above is not possible, I am hereby suggestions two options as under:

Option – 1

Either the fee for the European Fund Clearance Certificate 10650 pounds to be deducted from the winning amount 165000 pounds, since I cannot do any business in UAE and this amount will go directly to my bank address in India or

Option – 2

Please return back immediately my money (i.e. Courier charges 420 pounds British Inland Revenue charges 1650 pounds = total 2070 pounds) sent in the name of your Accounts Officer Mrs. Ella Wayne.

Mr. Anderson, this should have been done in a professional way from the very beginning itself since you told me that as I was not a British national, I will have to bear all these charges which you never did. Moreover, after speaking to you yesterday also (25/05) again you were not transparent, you specified that the cheque will be released immediately and all the required formalities have been completed, but now you are coming up with new formalities which I don’t think I am in a position to accept.

In the view of the above, since my salary is very small, I am sorry to state that I am unable to afford and arrange this huge amount by any means (i.e.10650 pounds which is equal to 77000 dirhams). So, please choose any of the above options and conclude this matter immediately.

Awaiting your firm reply via e-mail on the above in order for me to proceed to next action.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&--

So, sir till today i have paid total 2070 pounds to Mr. Anderson and after this email there is no e-mail of any calls. Usually he kept calling me almost 3 to 4 times a day.

i hereby strongly request you to take serious action and refund my money immediately. i even have the passport copy of Mr. Anderson and he is a British national
