Please avail me the opportunity to reach an agreement with you towards the realisation of this target.

I am the personal attorney to Engineer Alex.Button, who used to work with Orient Oil in Nigeria.Orient Oil is a USA based company who are contracted by Anambra State in Nigeria to prospect and develop oil rigs in that part of the country. i shall as the case may be refer to him herein as my client. About two years ago precisely On April 21,2003, My client, his wife, and their three children met their untimely death at their apartment in Lagos. They were among the victims of an explosion in Lagos, Nigeria, that happened on January 27, 2003 which, claimed many lives and properties. See the 2 website of the bomb explosion below: -

My client died in the hospital after about three months on 21st April while his wife and the children died instantly. Within the short time of his life at the hospital he availed the iinformation of this situation which i now seek your assitance.

After the several unsuccessful attemptsto locate any possible contact of his relation, I decided to through a geological search on a family trace to enable me locate any member of his family hence I contacted you. I have contacted you to assist in securing the money and property left behind by my client before they Get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged, particularly the GUARANTY TRUST BANK PLC. Where the deceased had a good sum of money to his credit .The bank has issued me adequate notice recently to make arrangement and have this money transferred to his next of kin before the account will declared dormant and the supposed credit sent to government treasury. I therefore seek your assitance to avert this unfortunate provision of the law concerning deceased person's account before the account will be confiscated as an unclaimed fund.

Since I have been unsuccessful in locating any relatives for sometime now,I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that this sum can be paid to you as the beneficiary/next of kin and then you and me can share the money at an agreed percentage.

As an attorney registered to practice law in the country, i assure you of handling this transaction under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
