discovered that my father lodged the Sum of $65,000 000.00 (Sixty Five
million US Dollars) in a Vault, together with specific

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.

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 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 sir, 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.
