Dear Friend,
I am Mr.Badru Azizi senior manager accounts/audit department, in Global Bank
of Nigeria Plc. DR.George Brumley Jr, who was a consultant with
Shell-development company in Nigeria and a personal friend Died and left
behind his deposit in this bank Global BANK NIGERIA PLC valued $20 Million
Dollars. My relationship with DR. Georgestarted in year 1999 when I was a
supervisor in Global bank marina branch. We met in my social club annual end
of the year party and I introduced him to my bank where he opened this
account some few weeks later making me the account officer to the account
and he operated this account until his death.
On the 21st of July 2003, DR. George, his wife and their two children were
involved in a plan crash in Nairobi Kenya. All passengers of the plan
unfortunately lost their lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of
DR.George's extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful.To prevent
the bank to claim this money I know decided to contact any body from your
country, I decided to contact you via your email address with hope to get
this money out of the bank.This is the web site of this tragedy that struck
on that faithful day.

I am contacting you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by
Mr.George before they get confiscated since the bank has declared the
account unserviceable.I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for
over 3years since I was recalled back to marina branch as a senior manager
from a transfer that took me to another branch of the bank. I therefore seek
your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased , so that the
proceeds of this account valued at $20 Million Dollars can be paid to your
account abroad and then you can have 30% of the money for your kind gesture
and keep the other 60% for me and 10% for expenses procured, I Will need to
travel down to your country for the collection of the 60% balance as soon as
this fund get to you.
I have the Certificate of deposit that can be used to back up any claim we
may make. All I require is your honest coperation to enable us see this
transaction through, of which we must present a foreigner with an account
abroad to enable us to clear this money from the bank.Your contact
information are very necessary, I mean your home address, phone number and
your full name.I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.Please get in
touch with via the email address below.
