Dear Friend,
Please bear with us for making the initial contact through e-mail. But my partners are insisting for a meeting in order not to fall into wrong hands again. I am Barrister. Nnanna I. Mark , the personal attorney to Mr. Milan Schick from your country but base in Nigeria and works with Mobil Petroleum Company in Nigeria as Purchasing Director/Manager.
Mr. Milan Schick and his family were among the people that lost their lives on Jan 29, 2002 as a result of Bomb explosions in the City of Lagos Nigeria, you can confirm it from here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/talking_point/1787000.stm
The reason why we contacted you is because, the Bank where our client (Mr.Schick had an account before his death valued at US$10.5 Million Dollars have issued us a letter to provide his relative whom will receive his money or they will include it on their Bank Profit for the Year 2005.
Since then, Our Chamber has made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of his relatives, but this was unsuccessful. After the unsuccessful attempts, we decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family but of no avail.
Since we have not been able in locating his relative for the past Four (4) years, we are in search of a well-trusted foreigner, whom I shall front as one of Mr. Schick 's relation so that I will order the bank to pay you the Fund then I can come over to your country for the sharing of the Fund with you equally.
It may interest you to know that last Ten years ago, a similar transaction worth of US$4.5 Million was carried out with one Mr. Isaac Kim, the President of Traine International Trading Corporation at No. 135 East 57th Street, 28th Floor, New York, NY 10022.
After the agreement between both partners, the money was duly transferred into this account only to be disappointed on our arrival in New York, and we were reliably informed that he was no longer on that address while his telephone and telex numbers have been reallocated.
This time around we need a trustworthy person to do business, so if you can prove yourself to be trusted in this deal then we are prepared to do business with you. What we want from you is the assurance that you will let us have our share if this US$10.5M is transferred into your account.
If this proposal is okay by you, then reply urgently and send me the following information's such as (1) Your full name and address, (2) Your age and occupation, (3) Your direct, cell and fax numbers. Kindly, treat as very important and strictly confidential, I honestly assure you that this transaction is 100% safe and risk-free. I look forward to your response.
This business will be concluded within seven working days on receipt of your acceptance letter.
Best Regards,
Barrister. Nnanna I. Mark
Senior Partner, Nnanna Mark Chambers
