I guess I can retire

I am so lucky to have networked across the United States with people who have forwarded my email address to hundreds of people and multiplied my exposure. Because of this, I get all types of email allowing me to become rich by accepting anonymous gifts from overseas groups who only have my best interest at heart. Today, I received this missive, so I am planning to retire and live off of my good fortune. The letter is reproduced below:

Payment Purpose: Inheritance Payment

Payment Value: US$5,500,000.00 dollars

Authourized Paying Bank: Central Bank of **** Transaction Reference Code: CBN/KTT/27890/00453/011 Payment Approval Date: 7/18/2011

Attn: Sir

I have some pretty goodnews for you. The goodnews is that, I am the newly appointed PAYMASTER, Central Bank of ****. I assumed duty as a paymaster General, Central Bank of **** on July 10, 2011 at the Bank's Corporate Head Office in Abuja following the confirmation of my nomination by the newly inaugurated President, Dr. Good-luck Jonathan. However, following my appointment and three hours meeting held today regarding the unpaid contract/ Inherantance fund, the out come of the meetting was you're no longer required to pay for the COST OF TRANSFER, DRUG CERTIFICATE, and ANTI-TERRORIST CERTIFICATE. Hence, is our obligation as a Government agency to issue those documents to you at no cost. However, i assure you that all the clearance documents/certificates certifying that the source and origin of the $5.5 million dollars Part Payment which was programmed for transfer since 12th July 2011 is clean and clear from any financial misconduct.

However, the "clean credit report" is ready for immediate transmission via telex to your bank as the "Remittance PINCODE number" for your transaction has been issued out and the code number is "0010-1036-XXXX-0000". Hence, a 'transmission fee" of $80 dollars is being charged by the authourities to send the "clean credit report" to your bank. Please take note that the purpose of sending the "clean credit report" to your bank was to prevent identity theft, improve the resolution of consumer disputes, improve the accuracy of consumer records and finally to make improvements in the use of, and consumer access to, credit information. All these attributes are the underlying purpose for the FACT Act.

Hence, the transfer of your fund will be affected into your designated bank account within 24 hours.This is an emphatic guarantee.Hence, this requirement is most urgent and compulsory. For this reason, urgently arrange to secure and send the $80 dollars as quickly as possible to enable us expedite all necessary actions on the transmission of the "MT 103 (Customer Transfer) to your bank. If you need any further clarification on this matter, please feel free to contact me at +234-70-XXXX-XXXX.

Awaiting your Urgent reply.

Thanks

Dr.David Martins

NEW CBN PAYMASTER.

So as you can see, for $80.00, I can receive $5,500,000.00 and start enjoying the good life. What's to lose? I deserve it and I'm going for it!!!

Once I get the money and buy my new private island, I will invite everybody to a housewarming party; just leave your address.
