The fake email is being sent by scammers who are attempting to trick their potential victims into sending them money or personal information. An advance-fee scam is a form of fraud and one of the most common types of confidence trick. The scam typically involves promising the victim a significant share of a large sum of money, in return for a small up-front payment, which the fraudster requires in order to obtain the large sum.

    Hello,

    My name is Barrister Jerry Lawrence from the IMF/FBI department of the U.S. Treasury in Washington, DC. This is the last notice you will receive regarding about your fund.

    If you do not claim your fund immediately it will be cancelled. We have authorized the affiliate payment center to release your funds. The only remaining item of concern is the authorization and transfer of funds into your account.

    The only fee you have to pay is two-hundred (300) Euros to cover the cost of transferring your funds.

    Note: The cost of transferring your funds cannot be deducted from the account due to the lack of "Power of Attorney".

    You need to contact the affiliate payment officer on email: (

    barristerjerrylawren2@gmail.com ) and send the fee to facilitate the transfer of funds without delay.

    Sincerely,

    Barrister Jerry Lawrence
