hence i write to you with hope and trust that you will wellcome
my mail without being bias and that you will be trustworthy to me.
I write this mail to you with the hope that we shall later
discuss person-to- person.

Son of late His Royal Highness Wuruola Ali 11,
My father retired as Former minister before he died on 29 December 2003.
Prior the probate of my late father's WILL and last
Testament, it was discovered that my father lodged the Sum of
$65,000 000.00 (Sixty Five
million US Dollars) in a Vault, together with specific
instruction to me on how to transfer this money Abroad.
This is a special arrangement with the company since his intension
was to invest the money himself.
Among other reasons, my father did not wish this money to
fall into the hands of political enemies, who might conspire to share my
inheritance among themselves.
He therefore had his Attorney draw up a document empowering
a foreingner that will help me invest this funds into any viable
business abroad.
If it will please you to assist me?,you can do so by sending to me via email
attachment or direct me to a more capable hand that will invest the funds
with little information of a viable business where the money will be invested,
i will send you necessary Document from my father's Attorney in order for
you to afix your name etc, in the space provided thereafter you should
send it back to me in order to effect the transfer of this money from
here to any country of your choice Abroad for the investiments only.
My father also indicated that such an Executor who helps me
to transfer this money abroad for safety,
will be entitled to any percentage agreed by we both i.e me and him or her
with my attorney and that will not exceed 30% of the $65 million.
I appeal to you for urgent assistance to enable me effect
the Terms of my late father's WILL,
In transfering this money abroad, for any good ivestment of
your liken, you will also take care of me and my school fees and little expenses
for the family until our agreed years of investiments elapse; Please my dear regard
this matter as a help to safe guide my life and inheritance from the hands
of my father's enemy and some greedy family members.
I wait for your positive response towards my proposal, also include
your phone/ fax numbers to enable me to contact you immediately.
