Email #1, from Cameron (scam-baiter):

Dear Miss <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>,

Thank you for your email and for forwarding the communication from the security company. It is reassuring to see the steps they are taking to ensure the release of the funds. I understand the urgency and the difficulties you’re facing and will do my best to support you.

Considering the importance and the sensitivity of the funds transfer, I would prefer if the lawyer from the security company handles the signing of the documents on my behalf. This would indeed save considerable time and travel expenses. However, as I’m currently managing my finances carefully, I would need to verify the legitimacy of the security company and ensure that all procedures are thoroughly compliant with legal standards before making any payments.

Could you kindly provide me with the contact information of the security company, such as their website, email, and phone number? I would like to get in touch with them directly to confirm the details and proceed with the verification process. Additionally, if you could share any other documents or references that can support their credibility, it would be very helpful.

Also, I would like to understand more about the storage fee. Could you please clarify why the amount is $9,125.00, and if there are any additional charges we should be aware of? This information will help me plan better for the associated costs and ensure that I have the necessary funds available.

I truly appreciate your trust and continue to be committed to assisting you in any way possible. Once I have all the necessary details and verify everything, I will arrange for the payment and facilitate the process for you.

Looking forward to your prompt response.

Best regards,

Cameron McCaffrey

Email #2, from Angela:

Hello sir,

I share your view on having the papers signed by a lawyer, as this will not only save time, but your travel expenses and the stress of a long distance trip. I have to request the security company to have the lawyer to act on our behalf and accept to pay the lawyer fee of $150.00.

Of course, it's absolutely correct for you to verify the legitimacy of the security company and ensuring that all procedures are thoroughly compliant with legal standards before making any payments, and I have provided every information that I have for the security company, including a copy of the certificate that was issued to my late father as proof of deposit of the funds.

So, please go ahead to make your findings, even though being present in their office would have been the best, timely and possible way of making the findings, but we are considering the cost of the trip and time factor.

On the said amount for the storage fee, I understand that my late father signed a contract agreement for period of a year (365 days) with the security company for the deposit of the funds, which translates to a total sum of $9,125.00 at the cost of $25.00 per a day storage and no additional fee whatsoever.

The deposit agreement is subject to renewal, if I so wish to retain the funds with them, but I considered it wise and appropriate to commit the funds into any profitable ventures, rather than requesting for renewal of the agreement for extension of the period since the funds are not yielding any interest with the security company, and the fact that I have to make a downward payment of 40% of the accumulated storage fee as part of the terms and conditions for the renewal. And all these considerations formed my decision to seek your assistance for the investment of the funds and I will forever remain grateful for your help.

I await your advice on the way forward before writing to the security company for their lawyer service.

Thanks and my kindest regards,

Angela
