While waiting for your data information to be adequately furnished  to us I will be writing back to the U.S Department of Justice to issue your Funds Clearance and Recommendation Letter to legally approved your payment before our legal department will proceed to the auditor general's office to submit your file for re-validation to secure your funds endorsement and payment approval. After this process is done we at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) will submit your file to one of our recommended paying banks for your transfer to be done to your nominated bank account. Yours Faithfully Nicholas Dimos Assistant Director of the Finance and Facilities Division

Dear Danny Smith , Thank you for your message, and please bear with me for my late response. I have also been dealing with a considerable workload on my desk over here. As I stated in my previous message, the U.S. Department of Justice is expected to issue a Funds Clearance and Recommendation Letter to us to provide the necessary authorization and direction for the next stage of the process. This is why we at the Federal Bureau of Investigation are working in collaboration with the relevant authorities. Regarding the recommended paying bank, the transaction is expected to be handled through the Federal Reserve System for proper accountability and documentation. Dear  Danny Smith  , You have already provided substantial information. However, your receiving bank details and a scanned copy of a valid means of identification will also be required for your file. These details may also be included in the Funds Clearance and Recommendation Letter that will be issued and submitted to my office for further processing. Please provide all the required information and supporting valid identity so that I can compile and submit your file to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for review and, where applicable, issuance of the relevant letter. Yours Faithfully Nicholas Dimos Assistant Director of the Finance and Facilities Division On Wednesday, September 23, 2026 at 02:11:09 PM GMT+1, [redacted] <[redacted]> wrote: Hi Nicholas, Thanks so much for the prompt response — I really appreciate you taking the time to write back. I’ve been meaning to finally get this straightened out, and I’m genuinely excited about the next steps. I just finished a long walk around the Houston neighborhood after a late shift at the office — it’s been a busy week with the oil litigation cases. I’ve got a few new client files that I’m wrapping up, and it’s been a real mental workout. Still, I’m glad to be moving forward with something solid. To clarify, do you mean that the *U.S. Department of Justice* is issuing the Funds Clearance Letter? I’m a little confused about the chain — are we dealing with a DOJ clearance, or is this a federal finance verification? Also, could you confirm if the “recommended paying bank” is one of the major institutions like Chase or Bank of America? And do we need to provide the bank details *before* the clearance letter is issued — or after? Lastly, I’d love to know if there’s a specific form or template we need to fill out for the ID and address documents. I’ve got my driver’s license and current Houston residence, but I want to make sure everything’s in order. Looking forward to your guidance — I’m all in and ready to move forward!  Best regards,  Danny Smith  Lawyer, Oil & Gas Litigation  Houston, TX  Sent from my iPhone Best regards, Danny Smith +17163259415
