Dear Sir
I am DR LARRY ADAMS Accountant General in the Nigerian Electricity Power
Authority (NEPA).
I got your contact via internet. I assisted a croatian
Mr.Crusevic to secure a contarct in my corporation
some years ago worth about dollars (US$50m) immediately the
contract was signed, an initial amount of twenty five
million United States Dollars (US$25m) was given to him Mr. Crusevic to
start the contract.
He successfully completed the contract and went on holiday pending when
his remaining balance of(US$25m) will be approved.
It was while on holiday that Mr. Crusevic died of Cadiac Arrest and
his balance of (US$25m)have been approved since.
Right now my corporation is not yet aware of his death and the money is
still lying unclaimed. It is based on this, that I and two of my colleagues
who monitored this contract is discovered that Mr.Crusevic did not remember
to write the name of his next of kin when he was signing the contract documents.
Thereby making it easy for any foreigner whose name is written to claim
the money.Right now, I and my colleagues are searching for a trust worthy
foreigner who will not cheat us and who will assist us to present and collect
this money into his or her foreign account.
Hence we cannot claim this moneyourselves here in Nigeria. If you accept
to assist us, you will be rewarded with 30% of the total amount
60% for us and 10% will be kept a side for any expenses incurred in the
process of the business.Finally, time is no longer on our side, if you are
interested please reply immediately either by email.
It is when I hear from you that I will tell you what you are expected to
do.Thanks and God bless you.
Yours faithfuly.
Dr Larry Adams
