It is a known fact that some unscrupulous elements with greed and instant gratification as thier utmost motive had swindled and robbed millions of unsuspecting godly minded people of various sums, with the intention of helping them recover unpaid contracts, or trusting them with the custody of millions of dollars that do not exist. Now then, our government is cracking down hard on these groups of individuals, and had channeled in, lots of security operatives to check the activities of these individuals. We are Apostles acting as spiders to help the unsuspecting victims and put them in the know of the true nature and scheme of these people. However, there are some out there that had done sincere jobs with different governmental departments and need to be paid genuinely. These category of people will be directed to the appropriate authority for genuine claims. We are applying the same method used by these fraudsters to reach their prey, with the aim of fishing out both culprits and victims. If indeed you've been a victim reply to this mail and let's see how we can help you. Else delete it from your system and be on the alert for fraudsters.
