Dear friend,
I hope my letter may come as a sort of surprise to you hence we have not met
each other before. Anyway, I am Dr. Shola Kadiri, the Director of foreign
Operations of the above firm here in Nigeria. I got your contact through a
business directory in my office when I was searching for a trustworthy
person and after much deliberation, I decided to solicit your interest in
the business I am about to introduce you to.
Furthermore, Last two years and half we had a client Mr. Antonio Raphael
Teixeira Filho, by name a Citizen of Brazil who deposited a consignment
containing family treasures and personal values in our Vault security
company for a safe keeping pending when he will be coming to pick it up but
we don't knew exactly what were the content of the consignment until we
heard that he died some couple of months ago.
It was after then that we discovered that the content of this consignment is
money to a total sum of $15.5 Million US Dollars. Right now the rules and
regulations of our company stated that any unclaimed consignment after three
years of its deposit will be declared as the company's property. But I do
not want this to take place hence I have found out it's content.
So, I am contacting you so that we can work together to get this consignment
out from our company's vault office hence I will detail you with all the
information in regarding how we can carry out the deal by presenting you as
the Next of Kin by either relative, Cousin or friend to the Late Engr
Antonio Raphael Teixeira Filho, who worked with the National Electric
Power Authority ( NEPA) here.
Moreso, i want you to understand that i am personally going to spend $19,000
USD, to procure the neccessary approvals and to legalise every documents
that will justify you as the real Next of Kin/ Inheritor to the Late Engr.
Antonio Raphael Teixeira Filho, locally after which the funds will be move
as consignment to avoid any money laundering by using my office position as
the Director of foreign Operations of this Company to pull out this total
sum of $15.5million US
Dollars to our affiliate registered Finance Security Company in Amsterdam
Netherlands (Europe) where you will be required to travel with the signing
fees to enable the final release of the money to you as the Next of Kin /
Inheritor for immediate cash collection or by telegraphic money transfer
from our Finance Vault House in Amsterdam - Holland.
To start with the documentations, do not hesitate to furnish me with your
full Names, Contact address, private telephone and fax numbers.
For security reasons, this business will not be disclose to any other person
until my family lawyer and I, obtained all the paper works on your name and
possibly conclude the transaction.
Kindly feel very free to ask me question in any area of this transaction you
do not understand so that we will discuss more on this issue.
