After the unfortunate incident, I have made several enquiries to his
Embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also
proved unsuccessful.After these several unsuccessful attempts, I
decided to trace his relatives over the Internet, to locate any member
of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you for your
assistance .
My client came to Nigeria 6years ago to invest in the construction of
private refinery in Nigeria, unfortunately, he could not achieve this
until his untimely death 4years ago.Documents inrespect to that are
with me.Prior to his untimely death, as his attorney, he did tell me
about the money he deposited in one of the commercial banks here in
Nigeria.He deposited the sum of US$31Million in the bank.
I contacted you to assist in repartrating the money left behind by my
client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
bank where this huge deposits were lodged.
Due to the present Capitalization exercise by the Central Bank of
Nigeria(CBN) stating that all commercial banks in the country must
increase there capital base to 25billion our local currency before the
end of this year, all banks are now busy looking for money to meet up
with the deadline.
It is on this note that the bank issued me a notice to provide the
next of kin of my client or have the account confiscated.
since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over 3
years now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of
the deceased.
Upon the conclusion of the transaction, the funds will be shared as
follows:- 50% to me, 30% to you, 15% to charitable organisation to
assist the poor,less priviledge e.t.c,while 5% will be for expenses or
tax as your government may require.
We intend to effect the transfer within a few days from the date of
receipt of the following information:

to back you up as the next of kin to the deceased.I require your
honest cooperation,Trust and Sincerity to enable us see this deal
through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
