Goodday Miss Young,
My client Mr. Frank
Robinson,contacted us about some minutes ago saying that the payment he made
to you was recieved by another woman,certainly not you,how can you explain
this?
We must say that we are really dissappointed in you,you gave the
company a fake address and comfortably gave it also to our client,now payment
was made to the address and we finally confirmed that it was someone else
residence,why do you have to play with the integrity of our reputable
company,we demand an apology for this,was this why you gave us a number that
is impossible to get? This is really outrageous and we must surely get to the
root of this.My company funds is in disarray and you are just there sitted
feeling unconcerned about it.
We need an urgent explanation to
this.
